Marmaris – Turkish – Nottingham

On the strip for Turkish eating places in Nottingham one has returned to the location that beforehand housed Bosporus. The closure of that and Istanbul left simply Tipoo as prime Turkish on the town. These locations are sometimes overly bling however Marmaris takes issues to full Dubai marina ranges of gold leaf. The music blares, the employees are loud, the desk’s so shiny I can see my face in it. It actually can’t be accused of an absence of environment. The menu is especially the tried and examined varied grilled meats nonetheless they do open early and provide a Turkish breakfast choice in contrast to their neighbours.

One of many nice virtues of those eating places is the hearty portion of free bread and dips you at all times get, don’t overlook to issue that into your order in any other case you may solely end half your fundamental course! Regardless of that I at all times must order lahmacun. A skinny, crispy bread with a coating of slightly minced lamb, tomato and lashings of garlic. A cut price at £4 and infinitely higher than nearly all garlic breads. Desirous to attempt the principle attraction I opted for a lamb & hen shish combo (£17) which got here with rice and salad. The rice was properly flavoured with slightly oil and spices and far more interesting than its fairly bland look. The meat itself all appeared of an excellent high quality and was expertly charred on the open grill you’ll be able to see as you are available. I’m a sucker for the blackened veg too so it was good to see an honest quantity.

You’re actually prone to get a big, satisfying plate of meals at Marmaris. If I’m going once more I’d be tempted to share a combo plate or go for a inexpensive fundamental alongside the bread. It felt equal to the opposite good Turkish eating places, though maybe just a few £ dearer. I suppose they should pay for all that gold within the decor in some way.
