 Lexington Koftesi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
After visiting Turkey in 2001 and 2002, my wife and I decided to try to determine how to make one of our favorite Turkish foods: Tekirdag Koftesi (Kofte of Tekirdag).
Although you see this Kofte everywhere in Tekirdag, the recipie isn't widely published and many people just get the spices premixed and packaged as "Kofte spices." Our home-guessed recipie isn't a perfect match, but it has the same type of flavor, and we think it is fairly competitive with the real thing.
The only thing set in stone is our name.
