What You’ll Experience

Considering the lack of vegan/vegeterian options to eat outside in Turkey, I have used our creativity on converting even other Turkish Cuisine dishes to Vegan Dishes as much as we could, through cooking at home for long years. Although, Kısır, Vegan Kokoreç, Vegan Dolma, Vegan Dürüm, Mücver are some of my personal favorites, I have recreated many Turkish cuisine dishes. At this experience, you will visit us, to have a Vegan Cooking class in a our cosy home. We will hope to make you feel at home as you come in to our home. After some chats and getting to know each other, we will start cooking as if we are cooking with your friends, family members. I believe getting to know the spices, ingredients that are unique to Turkiye will be interesting for you. Then, the best part starts, we will sit and have a family meal session. After that, we will prepare some teas and we will chill together. You will leave this experience knowing great Turkish cuisine Vegan dishes and a local as your new friend. So, come as a guest, leave as a friend.
