Ayse’s Cafe

Ann Arbor foodies can find no fresher food than Ayse’s Cafe, named after its owner, Ayse Uras. Specializing in Turkish home cooking using local produce from the farmer’s market in their slow-cooked, healthy dishes,Uras has a few recommendations. “Taste our red lentil soup, a luscious mix of red lentils, carrots, and onions, which we top with a dash of sumac before serving.” Vegetarian and vegan options are plentiful. “We feature daily dishes called Zeytinyalilar, in Turkish — seasonal salads and stews that are cooked with olive oil and are all vegetarian, most also vegan and gluten free.”
