Experience a genuine, traditional Turkish night out. You’ll see neither professional belly dancers nor folkloric dancers, nor visit tourist traps - but you will see much more than that.
We will take you where 'real people' go to dine in a ‘Turkish way’. You will see and have a chance to meet local people having fun with their friends. The evening begins in a traditional simit bakery. Simit is a bread roll, which is covered with grape molasses and sesame seeds. We take our simits and visit a local kıraathane, literally ‘reading rooms’, but which in reality are coffee shops with lots of moustachioed men playing cards or backgammon! After taking traditional Turkish tea in a traditional tea glasses, we visit another fascinating establishment: an ocakbası, which is a traditional self-service barbecue restaurant where you sit by the fire and grill your won kebabs… while savouring a glass of Turkish rakı, of course! We continue our gourmet journey passing by some aromatic Turkish restaurants. Finally, we end up in a Meyhane, a traditional tavern where you taste meze, drink rakı and listen to live Turkish music performed by gipsies. But if you think that is it for the night, you are wrong! We will offer you a traditional iskembe corbası, which is a tripe soup, the same way Turks complete their evening after being sated with rakı… And, of course, no Turkish night out is 'complete' without tasting Türk kahvesi, Turkish coffee. Also, to ensure quality, you will be escorted by a professional guide who will explain everything that you need to know.
