Travelling to Turkey might seem like a mere dream right now, but the home of everyone's favourite Kebabs and Baklavas has in no way isolated its delicious food to its homeland. Fortunately for us, you can find authentic Turkish food right here in Singapore! Bosphorus Turkish Kebap hawker stall at 505 Beach Road has authentic Turkish dishes for those craving a taste of travel to Turkey.
A Hawker Centre's Authentic Turkish Food
Inspired by its homeland, this Turkish hawker stall has named itself after the Bosporus seaway, where Istanbul is located. And rightly so! With a menu reflective of Turkey, you're going to be transported back to Hagia Sophia with every bite.

Their best-seller, the Chicken Kebap & Butter Rice ($7), has been cooked to Singaporean taste, but with loads of influence from Turkish marination and spices! Have a mouthful - bite into the corn, then relish in the bursting of the corn and butter's juice wrapping around the rice and ultimately, your tastebuds.
If that wasn't enough, this delicious Butter Rice is accompanied by Chicken Kebab! Marinated overnight with special Turkish spices, the kebab is then grilled to perfection with a gyros grill. One bite filled with juices and you'll definitely be craving more ?
