KROREN RESTORANT — Restaurant in Fatih

With all the respect I have for asian foods this place was one of the worst places I've ever been to. We've been here today with my friend, because I saw many people recommending it on instagram according to its high quality food and good prices. First we waited for so long to clean the table from the person before, after that it took nearly 40 minutes for the food to be ready, we ordered Dana Etli Ramen one of the most ordered items on the menu but, the quality of ramen was incredibly bad even though it was written with meat, it didn't have any meat in it. Second was the service itself, we ordered another item on the menu but it never came, and after waiting for so long we didn't have other option rather to cancel the order! If to anyone saw this place being famous please don't waste your money here it doesn't...

Decent honest basic Chinese food. We popped in for a quick lunch and while disappointed they didn't have any of the larger dumplings (named a type of manti of the menu but many multiple times the size of manti).

After some extended discussion they eventually brought the credit card machine out and I paid by card. Poor customer service on...

郷に入れば郷に従え. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. That's the Roman proverb, and that's what I did when I came to Türkiye. Having been to Türkiye dozens of times, I only ate Turkish food. This was the first time I ate ramen in Istanbul. Usually I eat Lanzhou ramen in Japan or Malaysia. There is indeed a difference in the presentation of Lanzhou ramen in Turkey compared to Malaysia and Japan. There are many choices of noodle thickness there, while here it's just normal and small. In terms of taste, there is no difference, but the amount of noodles is much more compared to those two countries. Is it possible because Turkish people eat more (?) hahaha.

But in general, the ramen is delicious, the service is good, the place is also OK. If I go to Istanbul again, it seems like this will be a culinary...
