53 restaurants spotlighted in the first selection of the MICHELIN Guide Istanbul

"Located in the neighborhood of Yeniköy, Araka proposes an escapade away from the hustle and bustle of the city. On the menu, chef Zeynep Pınar Taşdemir creates a highly personal and audacious cuisine with a focus on seasonal vegetables and herbs. The hot, sour and spicy flavors combine and balance one another wonderfully, like the pumpkin purée seasoned with za'atar and served with marinated vegetables and warm olives in a spicy sauce." - The MICHELIN Guide
