Kızılkayalar (Şaşkınbakkal / Bağdat Caddesi)
The Kızılkayalar wet-burger branch on Bağdat Caddesi in Kadıköy's Şaşkınbakkal quarter.
The Kalkanca branch of a Samsun-founded burger and pancake chain, running since 2015 on an additive-free product policy and family-friendly service.
My Friends Burger says plainly on its own site that its growth story in the food business began in Samsun in 2015, and this record covers the chain's Kalkanca branch, in the city's İlkadım district. The brand's corporate copy stresses that it never loosened its quality standards after launch, that it kept expanding its product range while putting customer satisfaction first, and that it holds the line on quality at every stage of its own production facility. The business markets an additive-free product policy and runs a separate line called Friends Kids aimed at families with children, suggesting the concept is built around family dining rather than burgers alone. The Pancake half of the brand name signals that the menu runs beyond burgers into breakfast and dessert territory. The Kalkanca branch sits on İskenderun Street in the Karasamsun neighbourhood of İlkadım. Nothing on the site names an alcoholic drink or a pork product. Ten years after starting in Samsun, the chain has grown into a multi-branch operation spread across several districts of the city, and the Kalkanca branch is one of its outposts in İlkadım.
