Located in the basement of the huge Galleria Mall, Ramiz stood out all thanks to Sue's salesmanship really.

Claiming to be an ex-crew of Turkish airline, she knows the walk and talk to cater to the crew's needs. She's even got airline sticker at the counter front.

Sue spent the time explaining the menu to everyone and definitely top service marks, giving a free sampling of bread, dessert and Turkish tea.

 Everyone went for the set. Choice of chicken or lentil soup

 *The Lentil soup was pretty good! Thick, filling and full flavored. The table side spice packs were really interesting. Black for pepper, red for red pepper and green for mixed herb spices. The chicken soup however, diluted and believed to be from a can.
Mixed Meat Grill

*Simple. Nice char on the meat patties. A little salty, but it pairs up nicely with the bread, a little olive oil and the nicly grilled green chili.*
Chicken with rice with serve of rice and salad

The dish taste and looks a little like Nandos. Chicken isn't too dry and fairly decent set meals for a quick bite.
Set meals come with choice of soup and a drink.

Fed 9 at 25Lyras Each with tip

Simple quick eats at reasonable prices. Average set meals about 20TL and meals about 16-18TL. Their chicken is more tender and juicy as compared to Bursa Kebap Evi located across. Their buttered rice too has more ingredients and spices to give the oomph. So stick to the chicken rice plates over at Ramiz.

Bursa Kebap Evi

Bursa Kebap Evi is located just across from Ramiz within the B1 of the shopping mall. Communication maybe a little bit of a problem and there was only two sets of menu available.

Bursa Kebap with Egg plant

 *The star and must order. The beef/lamp mixture is served over Pita bread and the small portion is already a lot for a single individual.
Cheese Dessert

*Fried, oily and on the sweet side. It could use more cheese. Interesting for trying but probably not head over heels to order again.*

Total fed 8 at about 30++TL each

The star order is definitely the Bursa Kebap. Nice thinly sliced mix of beef and lamb meats. The topper is the butter sauce which is poured over table side which adds to the richness of the entire dish.
The lentil soup and bread over at Bursa is superior to that of Ramiz. However their chicken here is a little dry. Stick to their singature Bursa Kebap and you can't go wrong.
