A taxi-based evening in the modern northern district of Kayapınar: lahmacun, kebab and künefe at three local venues.
The Self-Guided Kayapınar Grill, Lahmacun and Künefe Evening is an independent food route in the modern northern district of Diyarbakır, Turkey. No operator is involved and meals are paid at each venue. Kayapınar is spread out, so a taxi or ride-hailing car links the stops, and the route takes about three hours. The first stop is Buket Lahmacun at Peyas 252. Sokak No:16, a local lahmacun and pide house named by Turkish Airlines. The second is Kebapçı Yusuf Usta, in the Medya neighbourhood, a kebab house rated about 4.4 on Google. The route ends with künefe at Kadayıfçı Hacı Seyid on Tekel Caddesi. A budget of roughly TRY 700-1500 per person (about $14-31) plus taxi fares covers a light lahmacun, a shared kebab portion and a dessert. Hours are not verified, so phone ahead for the evening. The route suits visitors staying in Kayapınar hotels or those who have already walked Sur.
