    Hafiz Mustafa? I haven’t been. I did go to Karaköy Güllüoğlu which was really nice. Would you recommend Hafiz Mustafa next time I’m in Istanbul?

      Good eye, it is indeed Hafiz Mustafa!

      Would definitely recommend it, we tried a few different spots including Karaköy Güllüoğlu and Hafiz Mustafa was our favourite. Note this is from 2019 so am not sure if things have changed.

        Still good. My fave in Istanbul.

        If in Ankara, Hacibaba.

        If in Gaziantep, Kocak.

        You can’t go wrong with those.

          Thanks for the recommendations. I will have to go to Gaziantep next time I visit Turkiye, the food there seems incredible.

            It is incredible. But only if you are into red meat. If you avoid meat, than it is horrible. You almost literally can’t find anywhere to eat.

        I remember taking the metro to some random neighborhood in the city. Looking at the map yeah it’s near the water.
