A Culinary Odyssey at Ryba Cafe and Dining: Exploring Turkish and Middle Eastern Delights

In this blog post, I explore Ryba Cafe and Dining, an authentic Turkish and Middle Eastern cuisine restaurant in Crosspoint Mall Gurugram.

Nestled on the second floor of Crosspoint Mall in Gurugram, Ryba Cafe and Dining beckons with the promise of an authentic Turkish and Middle Eastern culinary adventure. Intrigued by the buzz surrounding its signature dishes like Pide, shawarma, kebabs, and falafels, I embarked on a maiden visit to this gastronomic haven, eager to savor its offerings.

As I stepped into Ryba, I was immediately struck by the inviting ambiance and the tantalizing aroma of spices wafting through the air. The decor, with its subtle nods to Turkish and Middle Eastern influences, created a warm and welcoming atmosphere, setting the stage for a memorable dining experience.

My culinary journey commenced with the Alinazik Kebab, a dish fit for Ottoman royalty. The creamy baba ghanoush, topped with soya chunks and burnt chili butter, served alongside freshly baked Pita bread, was a delightful introduction to the flavors of the region. Each bite was a harmonious blend of textures and tastes, leaving me craving for more.

Next on my tasting itinerary was the Iskender Kebab, a dish inspired by the legendary chef Iskender Efendi. The chargrilled chicken, smothered in hot tomato sauce and nestled atop toasted pita bites, adorned with butter and yogurt, was a revelation. Its rich and robust flavors, coupled with the comforting familiarity of the accompanying bread, made it a true standout.

For the main course, I opted for the Sac Kavurma, a traditional Gaziantep specialty that showcased the artistry of Turkish cuisine. The succulent mutton, sautéed with onions, tomatoes, sweet peppers, and southern provincial spices in a cast iron skillet, was a symphony of flavors. Paired with freshly baked lavash or manakeesh bread, it was a feast fit for royalty.

The menu at Ryba boasts an array of tantalizing options, including the Mutton Charsi Karahi, Pottery Chicken Kebab, Kuzu Güveç, Peshawari Namkeen Gosht, Turkish Dolmas, Mutton Gyro, Chicken Urfa Kebab, and Champaran Meat, each offering a unique culinary experience.

No meal at Ryba would be complete without indulging in their exquisite desserts, and I was not disappointed. The Baklava, with its layers of filo pastry filled with chopped nuts and sweetened with syrup or honey, was a decadent finale to my culinary odyssey.
