Excellent veteran börek shop in Gaziosmanpaşa. The cheese börek was perfectly flaky and the su böreği was delicate. Decades of craft visible in every layer.

Outstanding börek from a veteran shop. The spinach and cheese börek was exceptional — crispy layers and generous filling. A true Turkish pastry institution.
