"I decided I won't have anything to do with French restaurants, since a shocking programme from the telly the other day saying that 70% of the French restaurants in France serve frozen food. The journalists even went to the length of finding the supplier of these frozen food and found out they provide restaurants a 3.50€ frozen food package for 6 persons. Imagine, six persons go for a French meal of around 20€ per head, the bill in total will be 120€ just the food, not including drinks), but in fact you are eating frozen cheap food worths 0.58€ each. I never like to go to famous restaurants, their reputation always precedes their food. I like the homey one, or this one, run by a few friends, called Helin , a Turkish restaurant, very discreet, very unpretentious, hiding in a corner, but was once being reported by the local newspaper La Provence as the best Turkish food in Marseille, because it's clean, it's price is reasonable, it's foods are tasty etc etc. I ordered my usual grilled chicken wings dish and hubby ordered a doner kebab chicken dish. While waiting for our food to be grilled on the charcoal grilled oven, we were served some quite nice Turkish starters like yoghurt sauce with carrot and tomato bell pepper sauce with home made bread, just have something for nibbling. The chicken wings were juicy and crispy but the doner kebab chicken's a bit salty, both dishes were served with salad, chips and semoule, The portions were very filling, in fact they're so filling that we decided to skip dinner that night."
