Why Yum Yum

A proper Old Town kebab house

Freshly carved

Doner comes straight off the spit, not out of a warmer.

Generous portions

Built for the walk home, not a delicate starter.

100% halal

Every meat dish on the menu is halal, always.

Open when others aren’t

Food till 1–3am most nights, for the whole city.

Kurdish cooking, a bridge with three centuries of history under it, and a kitchen that doesn't close when the rest of the Old Town does — there's more to why Yum Yum tastes and runs the way it does.
