About

ELAF - Middle East & Turkish Cuisine

Welcome to ELAF - Middle East & Turkish Cuisine, where the rich and aromatic flavors of the Middle East and Turkey come alive in every dish. Located at 336 Whalley Range, Blackburn BB1 6NN, United Kingdom, this hidden gem offers an authentic culinary journey that celebrates tradition and taste.

  • Clay Oven Cooking: One of the standout features of ELAF is their use of a traditional clay oven, which infuses each dish with a unique smoky flavor. Whether it's the succulent Kobeda Kebab or the tender Lamb Shish Tikka, the taste is simply unmatched.
  • Diverse Offerings: The menu is a delightful blend of options, catering to both meat lovers and vegetarians. For instance, the Kobeda Kebab is available in single or double portions, served with your choice of naan, chips, or rice. Prices start at just £7.50, making it a great value for authentic cuisine.
  • Freshly Made Rice Dishes: Don’t miss the Qabuli Pilau or Mandi Rice, both of which are prepared with fragrant basmati rice and a medley of spices. The Qabuli Pilau, enriched with carrots and sultanas, offers a beautiful balance of savory and sweet flavors.

ELAF also shines with its refreshing selection of fresh juices. Indulge in the Orange Juice or try something exotic like the Strawberry & Mint Mojito, which pairs perfectly with any meal.

During my visit, I was particularly impressed by the Chicken Tikka, tender and bursting with flavor, all while the warm naan made for a delightful accompaniment. Each bite transported me to the bustling streets of Istanbul, vibrant with spices and culture.
