About

A popular Turkish street food a bit like pizza, these boat-shaped flatbreads come filled with a variety of different toppings. However, unlike pizza, pides are rolled into shape which pushes out any air bubbles before cooking and makes the base crisp rather than fluffy. We have two bestsellers in the restaurants: Charred Leek and Feta and Sausage and Egg, each equally as delicious as the other.
