If you are traveling for food, and food is the first thing that you search for before your trip, this guide is for you! As a local from Istanbul, I collected my favorite food and drink spots located on the European side, in addition to the must-try food items. Although the majority of the places are located in famous neighborhoods such as Fatih (Historical Peninsula), Karakoy, Beyoglu, Besiktas, and Tarabya, sometimes you need to get away from the center to find the best food. This guide also covers these off-the-beaten-track locations. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ The list contains the following sections: ✔️Breakfast 🍳🥯 ✔️Fine Dining 👩‍🍳⭐🍾 ✔️Kebab ✔️Authentic Turkish Cuisine & Street Food 🥘🌯🌭 ✔️Meyhaneler (Meze & Rakı Places) & Seafood Restaurants🐟🧊 ✔️Pubs/ Cocktail Bars/Wine House 🍷🍺🍸 ✔️International Cuisine 🍣🍱🍜 ✔️Traditional Sweets, Patisserie and Cafes 🍰🍨☕
