If you ask Berkok, one of our food writers, he recommends Azgın Tavuk&nbsp;(chicken) because of its pita and sauce. If you ask me as a vegetarian, I say go for the French fries and try mac &amp; eski kaşar. If you are open to new experiences, of course.&nbsp;What to order:&nbsp;Azgın Tavuk and French friesWhere:&nbsp;Asmalı Mescit Jurnal Street No: 2aHeads up:&nbsp;It is open between 12 p.m. and 1 a.m.&nbsp;
