Asithane - details

Average rating: 4 star(s)

Your Rating: 1 star(s)

Housed in a 19th-century Ottoman mansion (now converted into the Kariye Hotel), the Asithane is right next to the Church of St Saviour in Chora. It has a gorgeous summer terrace and an aromatic rose garden. The menu changes regularly. Specialities of the house are typically Ottoman dishes such as Hünkar Begendi (tender braised lamb piled upon a delicious aubergine puree base), fruity meat casseroles, and divine traditional milk-based puddings.

Istanbul

Istanbul is such a diverse city that it's almost impossible to split it up into definable districts. The only real distinction that can be made is between the European and Asian sides, which are separated by the Bosphorus Strait. Stretching from the Black Sea, straddling across the Bosphorus, …
