Although not even 100 years have passed, Turkey has already taken its place among the countries that consume the most tea and export the most tea.

Tombik Doner

The first way to cook doner, which was discovered during the Ottoman Empire, was to bottle the spicy meat slices horizontally, just like Erzurum Cağ Kebab. It took the vertical form we know today in the 19th century. Although we all identify it with Bursa, there are rumors that this process first started in Kastamonu.

Along with its sympathetic name, tombik doner kebab, which stands out with its filling and taste, continues to be the favorite of doner lovers.
