A La Turka

You head down to Unit 4 on Victoria Road expecting the usual suspects, but A La Turka actually delivers. The kitchen knows what it's doing: chargrilled lamb that's properly smoky, kebabs that aren't just meat on a stick, and mezze spreads that remind you why Turkish food works so well as a communal thing. It's busy most nights, which tells you something. The vibe sits somewhere between proper dinner destination and neighbourhood spot—no pretence, just good food at prices that don't make you wince. After a drink in Stockton Heath, this is exactly where you'd end up.
