Streetlevel: Turkish Food for Former My Little India Space

The former home of My Little India (now a frequent vendor at the Flea) at 96 South Elliott Place in Fort Greene is getting a new tenant: a Turkish restaurant. The sign hanging over the door doesn't exactly scream "high end" but you never know.

Your heading says Thai.

A Turkish restaurant that sells Thai food??? I'd steer clear of that.

11233...you seem to have a Thai fetish. How many times have you been to Bangkok? Which go-go clubs do you like???

Posted by: daveinbedstuy at September 9, 2008 2:14 PM

LOL. I thought B'stoner was just trying to get twhat all excited! No Thai fetish here. Never been to Thailand.

I see the heading has been changed, so my initial post is meaningless.

Yeah, we'll just sit over here in the corner with our dunce cap for a few minutes...

I love Turkish food, it is wonderful! Can't wait to try it out.

BTW - Went to T-Cup this AM on the way to work. I got a plain cup of regular coffee with milk that was hot, strong and delicious. Worth checking out!

Yeah...you and Bush and Paulson according to the What, Mr. B!!!

The cross thread discussion and now the reference to Thai food will be very confusing to future readers of the thread!!!

Might actually be a good thing that it doesn't scream "high end"

Personally, I'd rather have a moderately priced, genuine spot rather than a mediocre "high end" one (which, unfortunately, seems to be the standard fare in the area)

i personally am unable to appreciate high-end turkish food. my tastes are admittedly pedestrian when it comes to middle-eastern cuisine - i'm all about the kebabs, soups, and salads. and none of those seem to require much flair or fancy in order to bring the deliciousness.

I can't believe they're putting this in place of My Little India. I'm so disappointed. My Little India was a fantastic place with great furniture. Sigh...gentrification....

I'm not sure you can chalk this one up to gentrification. It seems to me that My Little India, although there a long time, was more "upscale" than some dime-a-dozen crappy Turkish place.
