Located in the heart of Istanbul's bustling old quarter, this establishment invites you to enter a slice of living history. Since opening its doors in 1919, the restaurant has remained a family affair, currently run by the third generation. The interior exudes timeless nostalgic charm with its elegant woodwork and Chesterfield banquettes. Watch the pastry chefs at work in the front section (takeaway available), then peruse the wide range of traditional treats in the display counter. You could start with the slow-cooked aubergine with minced lamb and cheesy béchamel sauce, follow that with the leg of lamb accompanied by roast potatoes and crisp vegetables, then finish off with the irresistible crispy pistachio-filled kadayıf – all at reasonable prices.
