Join us on a culinary tour through Istanbul to experience Turkish cuisine as we explore the city center.

Tour Details

We'll meet at Kadidoy Square at the scheduled time. Accompanied by our guide, we will visit cafés, restaurants, and street food stalls to taste a variety of Turkish delights. In Kadikoy, we will sample local drinks, including Aryan, a yogurt drink, followed by pickle juice for contrast.

Continuing through bustling streets, we will savor fish sandwiches (known as balik ekmek) and dolmas, followed by cig köfte, red meat with pomegranate sauce. The tour will include the famous islak burger and traditional kokorec, along with gözleme, a dough stuffed with spinach and feta cheese.

We'll conclude our tour with a sweet treat, sampling sambali, a dessert with a rich flavor. After 2 hours, we will finish with satisfied appetites.

Vegetarians

The vegetarian option includes lentil soup, börek (savory pastry), mücver (zucchini pancakes), pilaki (cold legume stew), and vegetarian ci? köfte (bulgur wheat balls). Sarma will also be served, made with cabbage leaves stuffed with rice and herbs. For dessert, enjoy semolina cake and tur?u (fermented pickle juice).
