From the Grill
Six kebabs, one charcoal grill. Every skewer goes over the fire when you order it — nothing is grilled ahead, held or reheated, so the meat arrives with the smoke still on it.

For the Table
The mixed grill platter puts meat, shish tawouk and kafta on one board, sized for the table: 2 pax at S$68.90, 4 pax at S$119.90 and 6 pax at S$169.90. It is the easiest way to taste the whole grill in one order — and the dish most groups build their dinner around.

Why Charcoal Matters
Charcoal burns hotter and drier than gas, so the outside of the meat sears before the inside overcooks — and dripping fat turns to smoke that seasons the skewer as it cooks. It is the difference you taste in a real Adana. For the full story of the grill, read our journal's Turkish mixed grill guide, and for how kebab differs from the vertical spit, see shawarma vs kebab. Everything above is on the menu with prices.
