Cuisine
Despite the rapid development of the district, this flavor, kept alive in pastry shops in the old bazaar areas, is prepared with hand-rolled thin dough. A mixture of local cheeses and fresh parsley is preferred for the filling. It is one of the most popular products consumed with tea in the early morning by Beylikdüzü tradesmen and workers. You can examine the locations of these authentic bakeries via the Map section.
