Iskender is good, but I usually don´t visit Turkish restaurants, because I fear to support the spread of islam.![]()

I like some of the food. Burek/Byrek is definately a great dish with yogurt. I don't like the deserts that much. They are too sweet and the only one I can eat is Baklava if done right.
Well you would know better, but many of these foods could have been brought over by the Ottomans but it might not necessarily mean it's Turkish.
For example, what we refer to as "Turkish Coffee" (Greeks call it Greek coffee here in the states) has origins in Yemen. I would imagine the same to be true of some of the other foods posted in the thread.

I used to sometimes eat it before I learned about islam, because it is one of the cheapest fastfoods here. I know a restaurant lead by Christian Turks (or Syrians, I am not sure) , though. They sell Turkish dishes and once in a while I eat there when friends want to go.
And lol at Sauerkraut, in Baden we have the best cuisine in Central Europe together with Alsace.![]()

Thank you for the explanations, it was clear
All those dishes are colored and look like spiced, my kind of food, unfortunately, Turks in Belgium have fast food and not gastronomic restaurants, so except pita and kebab, and some Bosnian dishes I don't really know your cuisine.

lol, so you think like kebabs spreading islam in Germany and as much as kebab you eat, you become more muslim?
I dont think it doesnt matter to loose you for the kebab restaurant owners tough because i heard that kebabs are even more popular than McDonalds in Germany, among Germans.

It's very strange that some nationalities still are using Turkish words like Imambayildi, Karniyarik, Sarma,Dolma etc. Dont you think it's strange? If that makes you happier, then call the Turkish dishes with Turkish names whatever origin you like to, but people with more common sense will understand that these very typical dishes are originating from us such as dolma (meaning to fill something), sarma (meaning to roll something) etc.I know it must hurt a lot certain people from certain natinalities that fact their kitchen is influenced a lot by their enemies called Turks

Eh not everything revolves around the Turks.
Albanians for example, accept these dishes came from the Ottoman period , hence, why we still call it Turkish coffee and not Albanian coffee or something.
I'm just saying not everything is necessarily Turkish because the food might have origins in other places.
