Ali Baba Kağıt Köfte

Ali Baba, located in the Manisa Kenan Evren Industrial Site, is a popular eatery known for its unique presentation and delicious flavors. The establishment's namesake dish, "Kağıt Köfte," is served on paper with onions and tomatoes instead of a plate. Reviews rave about the meatballs' softness and flavor. However, one of the restaurant's true surprises is its crispy-on-the-outside, perfectly-spiced kokoreç, which many visitors find even more appealing than the köfte. The casual and friendly atmosphere offers an authentic experience, particularly for industrial workers and passersby. Their homemade ayran (a refreshing yogurt drink) is also a popular choice. While some guests find the prices slightly high compared to the presentation, the delicious food entices many to return. The restaurant's own parking lot provides a significant advantage, allowing diners to enjoy their meal without worrying about finding a spot in the city center.
