fish on the Bosphorus

[chicfille]

Sunday lunch with excellent fish/good Turkish wines in Arnuvutkoy or Sariyer, any advice. Guide is suggesting this, we are fearful of tourist traps here. Love Turkish food.

Kiyi in Tarabya is an excellent choice. But if alcohol isn't a must, then Adem Baba in Arnavutkoy fits the bill. On Sundays (only) they serve fish soup, which is excellent.

Many thanks, where would you dine if you had 5 nights at Pena Palace, 3 nights at Swisshotel Bosphorus? Already have your fish on the Bosphorus recommendation. Am a professionally trained cook writing frequently about food, so I am prettty fussy. Istanbul Eats shows a rapidly changing food scene.

Many thanks for Kiyi, what is the opinion on the good Bebek fish restaurant and Sunset? I'll be writing about this trip, 11 days on both sides of town.

A must, especially in such good weather we are having right now! My two all-time favorites: no view but outstanding food in always busy Set Balik in Tarabya (only cash payments) and more relaxed great meal with a view in Akintiburnu Balik in Arnavutkoy (and a stroll around before). Please, report back on the experiences if choose either.

Happy eating in Istanbul!
