In this place, you’ll see how easy it is to forget you’re in Istanbul. You\u2019re actually in the Yenik\u00f6y district, in the north of the city, just beyond the exclusive marina you pass on the way (taking the Bosphorus ferry over is a must). Behind its charming fa\u00e7ade, this rural-style restaurant awaits with its cosy, romantic interior and a terrace to the rear where you feel cut off from the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This enchanting spot perfectly suits Zeynep P\u0131nar Ta\u015fdemir’s highly individual style. Seasonal ingredients are showcased on the menu. The young chef likes to express her creativity with vegetables and herbs. Pumpkin puree is imbued with the potent freshness of za’atar and combined with pickled vegetables and warm olives in a spicy sauce. A robust dish that is full of character and pleasingly harmonious thanks to its subtle acidity. This chef is adept at balancing spicy, savoury flavours with tangy aromas. She creates exciting dishes that let the regional produce do the talking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michelin-starred Araka has been deemed worthy of a visit to the High Quality Cuisine according to the 2023 Guide.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
