Anybody got any ideas where you can get a decent sized steak? as much as i like turkish food i do like a good steak sometimes...we do go to the butcher(Bulent)But we would like to eat out as well.However i have noticed over the past couple of years that the steaks in the restaurants are creeping up in price and getting smaller!! :o i don''t mind paying but i want a decent sized one...I''m sure some of you have your favourite places ;)
-
My daughter was in Kalkan last week and she raved about the steak she had at " Alternative "....good luck
-
I can certainly recommend the steak at Alternatif
-
Olive Garden for me. The steaks I''ve had there are superb.
-
The nicest steak I''ve had was at Aubergine - but it wasn''t huge.... for size, price and tenderness I''m with Brooksie - Olive Garden.
Like you, BL, we also buy fillet to cook ourselves and I''m always amazed how cheap it is compared to prices at home. Great value ;)
-
Atlantis on Kalamar Road-well priced steak, nice rooftop.
-
Zula....a very large steak covered in Gorgonzola fantastic I''ve go a picture which I will post in the gallery !!!
-
did your steak say "cheese " when you took it''s photo? ;D

Hi kalkan4eva,
Where do you buy your steaks from, I don''t think I have ever seen a piece of Fillet, Sirloin or Ribeye at the butchers in Kalkan.

You can buy steak, mainly fillet at different butchers in Kalkan but most of the restaurants source their steaks from outside Kalkan. A guy called Suleiman travels around Turkey sourcing fillet steak for the top end restaurants. On a personal note if I am eating steak I always go to Trio.They always manage to cook it perfectly whether rare (me) or well done.
-
When I''ve bought steak from the butcher he cuts it from a joint of beef. It''s always been tender and tasty.
-
Alternatif and Alternatif Atlantis (common ownership) have the best steaks in town without doubt.
-
Hey Misty ..just had a look in the gallery at your steak dinner...looks good!! ,will have to try Zula ;)
-
It was really nice...cant wait to be sitting down to another one :laugh: :laugh:
-
the best steak I ever had in kalkan was at akdeniz--they knew how to cook (or not!) blue. It was seared all sides and red in the middle.-It was perfect for me and soooo tender! Paul
-
The marble steak at Coast - phenomenal! You cook it on a hot hot hot marble slab - the most tender (and huge) fillet. Or any of the steaks at Salt and Pepper - also superb.
-
Doy Doy for fabulous steaks and also had a great one at Easter on my first visit to Mussakka (formerly Rami''s).
-
Hi Alan,
we''ve always bough our fillet from the butchers inside Migros or Carrefor in Fethiye. They cut it from a large fillet to whatever thickness you prefer and it is stupidly cheap. I''ve never seen fillet in the butchers in Kalkan, we usually buy chicken or lamb there, but I''ll be sure to ask for it in future.
-
we find Bulent is cheaper and good quality...but be careful there are 2 opposite the old school,the other 1 can be pricey and "skinny" steaks!! >:(
-
Is Bulent the butcher on the roundabout, BL?
-
No Bulent is the new butcher - Tavuk Et Galerisi just off the roundabout next to the YapiKredi (??) bank...!!
-
I think we are talking about the same place, Felicity. By the Samira and Tesko?
-
Yep - thats him..!! ;D ;D
-
Not a steak lover but my OH loves IBO''s streak.
-
does he take all his clothes off for an Ibos streak??? :o :o :D
-
lol, whoops, should of checked it before I posted!! ;D ;D ;D
-
I had a fabulous fıllet steak ın stilton sauce ın Saffron last week (new restaurant above Utopıa, between post office and Moonlıght bar) - cooked to perfection, wich ıs no mean task gıven the size of it! Steak ın Mussaka (new restaurant where Ramis used to be) was also excellent.
-

-

-

Aye me beauties the ''Sweet trade'' !
Loaded to the Gunwales with grog he be and just after the booty,,,,, ;)
-
If you''re talking about the same person as I think then Orlando Bloom & Johnny Deep would be insulated to be compared to him (no offense to him) he looks nothing like them, he used to work at Ozlaps I think!!
Sorry, gone off the topic a bit!
-
aaaaghhhh me hearties..at least if he be insulated then he be warm? ;) :-*
-
This season - Mecit [that''s his name is to be the greeter at Jimmys down at the harbour
-
had a fab steak at the new Fez restaurant. in fact best ever i think! amazing sauce too. superb staff and a relaxed atmosphere. made a nice change from the bigger places. worth a try for something different.
-
Sounds great where is the Fez ???
-
Just opposite the Old Trading House from what I remember - could be wrong though :)
