Tire Food Guide: Taktak Kebab, Salep Ice Cream and Tire Köfte

First published in Turkish in 2020. Places and prices may have changed since.

GastroTire, Meşhur Kuyu Kebabı Ali Usta, Ayhan Usta Florya Pastanesi, Osman Efendi Dondurma and the famous kebab house of Şükrü and Faik Öztepe… What a trip to Tire it was! My video guide (in Turkish) is below.

The ice cream guide I mention in the video is on Nilay’s site (in Turkish): her readers’ list of the ice cream makers that taste like childhood.

You’ll find the places I visited in Tire, and more, in my Google Maps list “İzmir Food and Travel Guide”. The home of Avilo olive oil, which I use at home, is on it too. I hope the map below comes in handy as well.
