AI summary of what 2 dish mentions say about the food
The katmer, praised for its impossibly flaky, buttery layers, is the undisputed star, delivering a warm, syrupy sweetness. The overall vibe is one of pure, unpretentious delight in a masterful Turkish pastry.
“Oh wow, it's just all oozing together with the kaymak and the pistachios, it's so rich. The layers of dough are so thin that they just hold the ingredients together with a little bit of crispness — it forms a pudding on the inside with the kaymak and the pistachios. If you like pudding, if you like baklava, if you like pistachios and something sweet, this is the definition of what you would love.”

A legendary spot for katmer — a paper-thin dough filled with pistachios, kaymak, and sugar, baked to crispy perfection; traditionally eaten by newlyweds for breakfast on their first morning together.

Katmer Rulo
This rolled version has more layers of dough because it's wrapped like that, so it's crispier. The kaymak is compartmentalized with the pistachios so they don't blend together in the oven like the square version. It's 10 times the richness — totally different flavor and texture.
