: This quirky Turkish restaurant on upper Wisconsin is one of the area's hottest neighborhood eateries, and opens up new vistas for Middle Eastern cooking. Set into a triangular-shaped location, the restaurant can't seat many, but it always appears to be crowded. Who could stay away from its velvety hummus and puffy, hot-from-the-oven pitas? You can keep the meal simple with a soup and sandwich (try the kebab of sliced lamb and veal) or consider one of the pides, the Turkish version of pizzas but shaped like a boat, in options including eggplant or spicy sausage with kashar cheese. If you are really hankering for a full-fledged meal, order up one of the platters of kebabs, or chicken or lamb entrées. As expected, desserts are for the most part Turkish, and include baklava and kazan dibi, a milk pudding.
