What the creator captured
Ayaküstü Lezzetler was particularly impressed by the unique pizza culture in the village of Kafro, where they serve Syrian-style pizzas using kashar cheese in a remote setting filled with luxury villas. They also highly praised the authentic Mardin kebabs, specifically noting the quality of the pistachio and walnut varieties. The journey concluded with a deep dive into Mardin's multicultural history, guided by a local historian who explained the city's unique Arabic traditions.
