Every skewer of kebab carries a long story, one that begins on the open plains of Central Asia and winds through empires, cities, and kitchens to reach your plate.

Turkey is a country of kebab cities, and each one argues passionately that it holds the crown. The good news for you is that you can decide for yourself, city by city, skewer by skewer.

You do not need to travel to Turkey to taste real kebab, though you should still travel.

Few foods say more about Turkey than kebab. It is the smoke that rises from a hundred thousand grills, the warmth of shared tables, and the pride of cities that have built their identities around a skewer of meat.

If you are heading to Turkey, kebab will almost certainly find its way onto your plate, and that is a very good thing.
