About Cappadocia deli Turkish

Cappadocia deli Turkish is a cafe at 7 Belgium Street in Ostend, Waiheke Island, holding a 4.9 Google rating and keeping in touch with customers through its Facebook page. Turkish cafes run on the rhythm of the griddle and the grill: flatbreads such as gozleme are folded and cooked to order, mezze is meant for sharing, and the coffee arrives thick, dark and unfiltered, best taken slowly alongside a glass of water. Tea in a small tulip glass is the other institution. A useful habit is to ask what is freshest that day; the best dishes are often made on the spot, so a short wait is usually a good sign. Rather than one plate each, ordering across the table gets you closer to how the food is meant to be eaten. Set among Ostend's village streets, it makes a warm, savoury stop on any Waiheke wander.
