Next to the Chora Church is an upscale--but not pricey--restaurant that was the gustatory highlight of our six days in Istanbul. The exquisite recipes come from Ottoman royal palaces.

This was the perfect place to have a relaxing lunch after our long walking tour of the surrounding neighborhood. The food was good- I had the vegetarian couscous, and it was light and perfectly seasoned. That and a glass of crisp white wine = yummy!

I wanted to eat at this place for years and in this trip I had chance to do it! It is all about the food and the food! You will have chance to try exceptional food from Ottoman Empire era. The service is exquisite. Try it, you wont be disappointed!
