A Luxury Dining in Istanbul

Istanbul is a place where you can read and read and read but never get to understand without experiencing it firsthand. It has a very complex culture as it's the unofficial capital of Turkey. 

You can clearly see this complexity in the cuisines that are offered there. Seafood that is expertise from the Mediterranean heritage, amazing meat dishes coming from the middle-eastern parts. Recipes that have been shared and developed with the country's neighbors for thousands of years. Every bite in the below restaurants will take to another level of amazement.

Executive Chef Sinem Özler is found often gracefully walking around the tables as she knows that this place is worthy of loyalty. DO NOT skip "İçli Köfte" if you would like to taste the best version of the minced meat of your life. 

2) Sunset Grill & Bar

Of course, it's never just the beautiful scenery. This place has been on the excellence for almost 30 years! It has a broad wine collection and a whole sushi bar on the action. I can't choose a favorite in their menu but crunchy shrimps was to die for. 

3) Efendy Istanbul

We went Efendy for the first time for our wedding anniversary and I honestly never though a cabbage dish would be the highlight of our celebration night. Try different cocktails that are very unique to the restaurant. And if you decide to go for a tasting menu, get some room ready in your belly! 

Here is my first guide in Thatch. I hope you enjoy it! Never hesitate to get in touch with questions. Cheers everybody!
