Restaurants in Chicago - Turquoise (very recommendable)

This is delicious turkish cuisine.

We went in a large group and therefore were able to try a large variety of dishes. They were all delicious and the service was good.

We ate the following starters:
-Sogurme (eggplant dip) - super creamy and delicious flavour, even people who are not such fans of eggplant will love the smoked flavour.
-Lahmacun (very thin dough with ground beef on top)
-Shepard Salad

They make their own bread which is a great plus - it is really warm and fresh!

As a main we all the different meats: lamb chops, ground lamb, chicken and beef. None of it was dry. All the meat was well prepared with delicious flavours, such as rosemary - especially noticeable with the chicken. (Main dishes cost approximately $19)

A dessert that everybody found special and tasty was the creme brulee, which was different from the traditional creme brulee.

We spent $40 per person which was good value for money considering we ate so much!
