My Turkish friend tipped me off: This is the best place for(fresh) lokum and confections in the city center. The display cases are filled with all sorts of delights! One evening I brought a foreign friend, here. Instead of dinner, we had aci badem(almond cookies). They were a nice big size… the texture was slightly firm /crunchy(like a traditional macaroon) but the inside was soft! The inside also was dry, but not crumbly.
