Caravanserai

We always like trying out new places, and were recommended to try out Caravanserai if we liked Turkish food.   Now, we all love Turkish food, and with a discounted banquet on a Tuesday night, we trotted out to Papaya Hill to try it out!

We rang and booked (last minute) but it was good as we got a table inside!  (It was quite a chilly night)   Not long after everyone arrived, we were served a wonderful antipasto plate.  Stuffed vine leaves, olives, dips, cheeses and a selection of leaves we enjoyed them with amazingly tasty, warm, fresh from the oven turkish bread - yum!!!


Unfortunately, after that, the service was exceedingly slow as we were basically the last table, and we watched delicious foods waft past with no joy.   We did all have a hot apple tea though which was moreish.

Eventually, we were served and the food was amazing.   Because we had a vegetarian, we had 2 vego and 2 meat dishes.   The vegetarian dishes consisted of a tasty lentil soup, as well as a dish of haloumi cheese and sweet potato.   The meat dishes were yummy meatballs and chicken skewers.  Delicious!

The piece de resistance however, was the plate of turkish sweets which topped off the night.   We tried an amazing short bread, a chocolate ball, baklava and chewy, rose infused turkish delight.   Amazing!

It's probably one of the best Turkish restaurants I've ever been too, and will definitely return when I am craving Turkish.   If you don't mind the wait, I'd give the place 8/10.
