Ocakbasi (odjak basheu) is a very specific type of charcoal barbecue. Ocakbasi translates to ‘fireside’ or ‘stand by the grill’ and ocakbasi restaurants typically have one or more large hooded charcoal barbeques in the center of the restaurant. Patrons typically sit around the grill and watch the grill master prepare the meals. It’s fun to have a little interaction with the cooking process. Mainly meat. Great atmosphere, small place.
