A bakery cashier caught it instantly but it escaped our untrained eyes. This isn't the first time a foreign currency of low value was passed along to us though. It's always a good idea to count the coins carefully when dealing with cash.

Yufkas is an alright pace to get doner in Heidelberg. It was always the reliable late night option…read morein a great location. The food was always tasty and I usually ordered either the chicken doner or doner box. Despite this Yufka's was not my doner of choice in Heidelberg, and I always found the meat a little dry. The doner also usually needed more sauce. I would still eat at Yufka's again because of the convenience and location, and the food is ok. It might be worth it to look for a better kebab in Heidelberg though.

It was a walking distant from our hotel and tried this place…read more It was a Mediterranean restaurant but very busy place. Ambiance typical Turkish place with their traditional decor. We ordered their Chicken and rice plate and mixed vegetarian combo. Ordered from the counter and paid . No tips needed. The chicken was good . The rice was so tasty but oily. The garlic cream was an additional cost if you want it. The salad was not so fresh. The chicken was already cooked and they warmed it up. The mixed vegetarian plate was ok. Saw the server picked up the veggies from their food cover with bare hands. No cloves. I wished at least hand gloves for sanitation. There was flies flying around. It's summer. The bread was burned. They run out of taboli and gave us salad instead. Overall , it was ok

Arbil is probably my favorite place to get Doner in Heidelberg. It's in one of you most convenient…read morelocations to get food in the city because it is right next to Bismarckplatz. The prices are reasonable and usually the Doner is really good. I always order Doner at Arbil and I am very rarely disappointed. Sometimes the chicken is rubbery and tasteless but it is usually very good. The beef Doner meat is also very good usually. The staff at Arbil is all very friendly and easy to communicate with even if they don't speak. The restaurant itself has very nice decorations and furniture. I would recommend Arbil to anyone looking for Doner in Heidelberg.

I learned while visiting Mannheim that the city has an enormous Turkish population, and therefore it has dozens of Turkish restaurants. Uzun Tasfirini is acclaimed as one of the best spots in the "Little Istanbul" neighborhood, specializing in pides. Pides (pronounced "pea-days") are the Turkish equivalent to pizza. This snack food is a large flatbread topped with ground lamb, tomatoes, and spices, which bakes in a wood-fired oven for less than 10 minutes. It is then cut into squares and served with peppers, parsley, and lemons. You assemble the peppers and parsley yourself, squeezing lemon over your pide before you fold it up and indulge in this pizza treat. It's a simple, delicious dish that you can't miss out on if you're in Mannheim or are feeling homesick for a slice of pizza.

If you find yourself in Mannheim, you can't do better than Uzun. This small place specializes in…read moreTurkish pides, all of which are freshly baked in a huge wood-fired oven. A fresh, filling meal including a drink will run you about 6 Euros, which is hard to beat. To start, order the mercimek corbasi soup, a lentil soup made fresh in house. It comes with fresh baked Turkish flat bread, lemon and spices. For the main course, there's a variety of pides to choose from, but my favorite is the spinach & feta -- freshly chopped bright green spinach mixed with creamy cheese, engulfed in homemade Turkish bread, with generous brushed butter on top, crisped to perfection. Heaven is a place on earth with you.
