Step into the vibrant heart of Kadıköy on this Secret Food Tour and discover Istanbul through its flavors, aromas, and traditions. This lively district on the Asian side of the city is where locals gather to eat, shop, and socialize — making it the perfect backdrop for your culinary adventure.

Your experience begins with a crisp lahmacun, the iconic Turkish flatbread topped with spiced minced meat. Sip on a rich Turkish coffee before sampling a spread of local cheeses, tomatoes, and olives. Along the way, your guide will share the stories of the markets, eateries, and food traditions that have shaped Istanbul’s culinary identity.

Taste comforting menemen, fluffy scrambled eggs cooked with tomatoes and peppers, and muhlama, a silky cornmeal dish with melted cheese. Try a freshly baked pide, often called Turkish pizza, and indulge in sweet, flaky baklava.

Between bites, enjoy a pause for local wine, tea, or ayran, while uncovering the culture and history tied to each dish. And, of course, there’s also our signature Secret Dish, revealed only on the day.
