Head to this cool food yard in Greystones for amazing bites
Didem Kose grew up in Istanbul, surrounded by the smell of street food and her father’s cooking in his small restaurant called Yellov. He named it after his favourite colour, yellow, not realising that he had misspelt the word. The sign stayed there as “Yellov” for more than 15 years.
Didem moved to Ireland seven years ago when she was 22, with a college degree and limited English. She worked part-time while attending language school, and moved on to a marketing role in a consulting firm for three years. It didn’t feel like the right fit. A move to Greystones during, where she ended up cooking Turkish food for friends led to a complete rethink of the direction she wanted to head in.followed, and after cooking there for two years, she left to open her own food truck.
Didem opened Yellov in March, trading at the Boatyard in Greystones. It’s a smart venue beside The Beach House pub with picnic tables for outdoor seating.Floritz review: A glitzy but perplexing new restaurant with an overwhelming menuSeptember, Blackrock, review: We need more walk-in restaurants in scenic spots like this - absolutely delightful
Her food is Turkish, and happens to be vegetarian, with dishes such as falafel wraps, mushroom kebabs which Didem calls kebaps on the menu, and arancinis. Everything is prepared from scratch in the truck, using no frozen products.Service is gorgeous, Didem was about to close, but graciously took our order. We popped over to The Beach House to order drinks while waiting for our order to be ready.The hummus on the hummus plate, made from red lentils instead of chickpeas, is delicious.
