Çi börek

or sometimes also spelled ã§iäŸ bã¶rek – essentially a crimean tatar dish, it reached eskiåŸehir in the late 19th century when a band of crimean tatars was settled in the city. it is a kind of pastry with thin dough walls shaped like a half-moon and filled with finely-minced meat inside. it is cooked in a large pot filled with heated vegetable oil. crimean tatars consider eating it with a fork an insult, and they don’t provide any in their restaurants hands with a paper napkin are used instead.
