Green Lanes' top-edged Southeastern Anatolian ocakbaşı, kuzu pirzola the Anatolian standard
Diyarbakır Restaurant sits on Grand Parade in the dense top half of the Harringay ladder, Southeastern Anatolian rather than İstanbul-Aegean, with the heavier hand on lamb that the southeastern register implies. The Infatuation calls it the top of the Green Lanes ocakbaşı pile; the kuzu pirzola, the içli köfte and the side of fresh-baked tandır lavash are the orders. Locals use it when the visiting İstanbullu wants to taste southeastern cooking properly executed, it is closer to Çiya in Kadıköy than to a generic Turkish grill.
Order the içli köfte starter, the kuzu pirzola main and the kunefe finish, the southeastern register is the room's edge over Gökyüzü's broader İstanbul mainstream. Walk-in midweek; book Friday and Saturday.
