Experience Details
Forget the tourist trail. This chef-led food tour takes you into Kadıköy, Istanbul's most exciting food neighbourhood, where locals eat, chefs gather, and the best dishes rarely make it into guidebooks.
Start with one of Istanbul's favourite street snacks before heading to a beloved lokanta where the regulars know exactly what to order and the best dishes often sell out.
Explore vibrant meze packed with herbs, smoke, and spice, then visit a hole-in-the-wall oven bakery where generations of expertise turn simple dough and meat into something unforgettable.
Along the way, you'll discover handmade Turkish dumplings, local traditions, hidden eateries, and the stories behind the dishes that define modern Istanbul.
Led by a professional chef and limited to small groups, this is what the Istanbul locals wish visitors could experience.
4 hours. Multiple food stops. Small groups. No tourist traps. Just exceptional food and the real Kadıköy.
Come hungry.
