- Hey EU, Hands off my doner!

  Turkey’s EU accession talks have raised a lot of important questions on reform, accompanied by predictable growing pains. But the latest news from Ankara, which can be read in Turkish in this article in the daily Radikal newspaper, makes us more than a bit uncomfortable. According to the article, Turkey’s food sector has much catching up to do with European "hygiene ... continue
- Istiridye Balik Lokantasi: The Business of Lunch

  Karakoy, once a busy port area, remains a mostly commercial zone, with elegant buildings housing shipping and holding companies. The people who come to Istiridye expect the restaurant to serve food whose quality doesn’t vary from day to day, because, it would appear, many of them seem to come here every day.

  Round one. Ding. Based on looks alone, Muamar usta’s söğüş kelle – head boiled and served cold – was decidedly the underdog. A bit gaunt and ashen, this skull looked a bit past its prime, a dud with a glass jaw. But lay down a fiver and watch this Cinderella story unfold.

  The images of kaymak – the Turkish clotted cream that is the crack cocaine of dairy products – being scooped up with pieces of steaming fresh lavash left us drooling in front of our TV set. A trip up the Bosphorus was certainly in order. So, on a recent morning, we got over our fear of traffic jams along the ... continue

  Besides expanding the place, the owners have put in a new kitchen and have given the restaurant a spiffing up, with a new wooden façade and a completely remodeled interior. The menu remains the same, for now, although one of the cooks told us some new items might be in the works (Ismael, one of the owners, even promised ... continue
- Lades: Old Faithful

  The monogrammed flatware, faded from decades of use by diners sopping up that last bit of stew with a fresh piece of white bread, indicates the sort of customer approval that we seek in a lunch spot. On one recent visit, we tried the hotpocket-like talas kebab – a stew of beef, carrots, currants, onions and pine nuts wrapped in ... continue
