That maybe so but it depends on your prefrences, it is nice to understand what you are eating!

There is a soup restaurant at the place I visit but I don't recall the exact wording of the sign.I am going there in 10 days time so I will look it up.

mercimek,işkembe,or ezo gelin what ,which one would you like?

we had last night!

Long time ago we talked about this in that topic:

My advice is to go to a traditional soup house (işkembeci).
When the waiter comes tell him, "Kelle paça istiyorum. Tam tekmil olsun" and you will have a real soup.
