The restaurant's stripped-back, elegant interior is a melding of old and new Istanbul, with roughly-plastered walls complete with traditional mouldings alongside a vibrant turquoise tiled kitchen counter, where guests can watch chef Deniz Temel and his team at work. Temel cut his teeth with stages in some of the world's best kitchens, including Noma in Copenhagen and D.O.M. in São Paulo, before returning to Istanbul and honing what was to become his signature modern Turkish style of cooking.
