"The “27” in 27 Mezze Bar & Grill refers not to the restaurant’s unit number, but the number of dishes on its menu at any given time. Though by no means a sum to scoff at, for owner Ozlem Ozbilgili, this is an exercise in restraint.
There is a whole lot more she could chuck at diners, if other Turkish restaurants in Singapore are anything to go by: more cheese-flooded variations of pide, more falafel, maybe a musakka or two.
27 Mezze, opened in January 2024, is modelled after the meyhane – mey connoting alcohol and hane meaning house – style of dining, so be prepared to knock back a shot or two."
