"If the first bite of baklava at Karaköy Güllüoğlu doesn’t mesmerize you, nothing will. Run by the sixth generation of the same family, the shop is the place to try all kinds of baklava at their finest. Early harvested pistachios give the treats that distinctive emerald color, the clarified butter adds a creamy texture and stunning smell, and the sheets of dough handmade by the ustas provide that perfect crispy crunchy texture. Be sure to try the baklava ice cream while you’re there." - Tuba Şatana
