A cute little restaurant, the brainchild of a Turkish cuisine lover in Dubai, Pide Keyfi operates mainly as a delivery and take-away joint, but the quality of the dishes deserve eating on the spot, piping hot, on the terrace outside!
It is a simple and humble restaurant, the kitchen staff all native Turks – and they put their heart into every dish, delivering delicacies left, right, front, and center!
The menu, in fact, is extensive, and much more developed than one might expect.
From soup…
And check out those Turkish herbs and spices! This lentil soup tastes completely different from those regularly served in Dubai!
… to baked flatbread “pide” of all sorts of toppings varieties.
You can see the quality of the effort from the kitchen in both the handmade construction of the pastry, as well as the lightness of the dough utilized – a top quality pide!
But Pide Keyfi doesn’t stop there!
Their little kitchen races like a turbo-charged V8 engine, and live-fire charcoal grills the meats, a gas stove top keeps the sauces warm, and the firey doner spins like a top – and the results are fantastic!
The dishes that emerge look like this masterpiece:
Salads also, including this one with raw bulgur kibbeh:
And fresh orange juice is served.
But really, to enjoy Pide Keyfi at its best, catch those delicacies as they come out of the oven – sure, they are still yummy delivered to the comfort of your home, but when you are there on the spot, you could be sitting at a cafe in Istanbul, overlooking the Bosporus – that is how amazingly authentic Turkish this restaurant is!
Overall, Pide Keyfi is one of Dubai’s young, emerging restaurants – cooking from the heart, and serving original and authentic dishes at a high level of yumminess: if you want to taste Turkish, look no further!
And to finish off, nothing less than true Turkish coffee.
