In addition to being the capital of baklava, Gaziantep is also home of Turkey’s richest regional cuisine. It’s got a great climate that produces outstanding local produce, an ancient history that reflects Anatolian, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean influences, and a traditional food culture.

Metanet Lokantası serves up a myriad of different beyran soups, a popular dish in southeastern Turkey. This place is where many locals go to have it. Beyran is a dish made from mutton broth, mutton meat, rice and suet; the preparation time is around 12 hours. Beneath the surface of the garlic flavored, red broth lies the melt-in-your-mouth meat with all of the unwanted parts trimmed off. Even though we’re not huge eaters of mutton, this soup was downright tasty and satisfying.
