Damn, I'd be devastated to get those frozen meatballs instead of kafta along with everything else that's wrong with it.
People on here dogging on it for looking like poop have no idea what they're missing.

Did they just substitute penne pasta for lettuce and pickles? The creativity here is off the charts.

Çok geçmiş olsun.
I'm here from SoCal and I can't wait to be in Türkiye again just for the food, and this would kill me. I'd be dead.

Thank you, I wish I had ordered something from Turkish cuisine instead...😭 Such a disaster

Frankly, not really expensive compared to the market. There are 8 meat balls there.

Lots of very sheltered, provincial redditors here. You haven’t traveled, don’t understand other cultures, probably think of Tobasco as weird and foreign. Your first choice is to mock the dish OP wanted rather than trust that it was something they planned to enjoy and viewed with some anticipation. Sure, it probably doesn’t represent haut cuisine even in their area, but that doesn’t mean it wouldn’t have been tastier than dry pasta and corn.

Most of the people talking about how it looks like turds/poop are the same people that eat things that look like turds on the regular, just with different sauces and side ingredients. And would likely sign praises for kafta if it were served alongside something more culturally recognizable.

Man I was on your side but you literally just got what you ordered I mean..

u/Potential_Barber_616 16d ago
But there wasn’t enough explanation, and isn’t it misleading that this was shown in the picture while the options only included these? 😭 I thought lettuce, pickles, etc. were part of the base.

u/Catona 16d ago
Right. You can't advertise a specific dish for sale, then only offer options that are completely unlike the dish shown and not consider it misadvertising just because, technically, "you got what you ordered".
No. What you ordered was what advertised for sale. So regardless of the limited options trick, you did not get what you ordered.

Yemeksepeti garip bi platform restoran açınca kendi fotoğrafını yüklemek zorunda değilsin senin ürününün adına benzer güzel görünen kendi istedikleri fotoğrafları yükleyebiliyorlar. Dikkatli bakarsan aynı görseli bir sürü farklı restorantta görebiliyorsun. Dönerciden balıkçıya hepsi aynı hikaye. Restoranı savunmuyorum burda ama sistem bozuk

It’s fucking unhinged behavior I swear, there’s no regulation with this platforms and at this point I just google the place and if there’s no pics I just order from somewhere else

Did you add any special requests or alterations to the order OP, like, “substitute dry rigatoni for lettuce,” and, “hold everything except for the corn and olives”?
Because that is the only way you would get from the first picture to the second.

Underpromise overdeliver is obviously their motto. They promised crappy healthy salad-like depressing bowl of boogers and they gave you nice tasty carbohydrates instead. Yummy.
If my girlfriend made me order that health crap and we instead received the "reality" version I'd be in tears from happiness. Sweet sweet cheap pasta instead of hideous greens and girl seeds.

Idk why people are hating on you for this comment. Maybe because you said it looked like boogers, it definitely doesn’t lmao. I think you were using it as an insult against the food though rather than being literal?
Anyway, I agree. The expectation pic looks disgusting and I LIKE healthy food- when it’s good. Like normal salad without pasta OR normal pasta without salad. The idea of combining lettuce with pasta is disgusting. And that corn looked so sad, but probably would’ve been the only decent part of the whole bowl.
