Description

Looking for something more meaningful than just ticking off tourist attractions in Istanbul? Join us for an unforgettable dinner in our home — a true taste of Turkish culture beyond the guidebooks. We’re not chefs and this isn’t a restaurant. We’re a local family passionate about bringing people together around the dinner table. In our home, you’ll experience Turkish hospitality the way it’s meant to be — warm, generous, and full of heart. Enjoy a lovingly prepared homemade meal featuring classic Turkish dishes like Dolma (stuffed grape leaves), Karnıyarık (eggplant with spiced meat), and a refreshing yogurt-based carrot meze. But this evening is about much more than food. It’s about stories, laughter, and cultural exchange in a cozy setting that feels just like visiting old friends. This is your chance to connect with locals, discover traditions, and experience real Istanbul life in a way that top-rated restaurants can’t offer. Come with an open heart, and leave not just full, but with new friendships and memories. We can’t wait to welcome you into our home — come as a guest, leave as a friend.
