Çiğ Köfte is one of the most popular street food in Turkey. However, originally, Çiğ Köfte has a very authentic and traditional concept of cooking.

As a southeastern dish from the city Urfa, Çiğ Köfte kneading is organised with big groups of people where some of the people would knead the Çiğ Köfte and the rest would play and sing music behind.

At this experience, you will come visit us at our home. We will start with describing the ingredients and special spices of Çiğ Köfte. Although we aim to teach you how to prepare Çiğköfte, the better thing we aim is to teach you the concept, the tradition and culture of Çiğköfte.

After warming up and making you actually feel at home, we will sit together and start kneading Çiğköfte together, as much as you wish to participate. There is various jokes and ways of testing the taste and the intensity of Çiğköfte. Of course, we will keep them to tell during our time together.
