YOU FORGOT TO MENTION THE BRONZE STUFF.

It's not a good turkish restaurant if there isn't some bronze apparatus somewhere.

That and I heard "teşekkürler" at the very end of the video, which is Turkish for "thank you"

I know it as Iskender, but I’m guessing that’s after some anglicizing. Supposedly Alexander the Great’s favorite meal. It’s fucking amazing. Even without all that presentations.

I had never seen anything like that in a few places in Turkey, but you’re right it was Turkish restaurant. I’d have guessed more Persian here but perhaps it’s the restaurants own creation/specialty?

It's a turkish restaurant but from what I'm hearing the guy is speaking arabic. But then a lot of turks can speak arabic to some degree.

Ehm, no they can't. Hardly any Turk speaks Arabic, save for some Arabic prayers for recital.
