2014 Culinary Tour to Turkey - Istanbul Day 3

Today we hopped on a boat and headed up the Bosphorus towards the Black Sea. We saw beautiful summer homes, palaces and restaurants along the way. We ended our boat trip with lunch at İsmail’in Yeri Fish restaurant in the village of Anadolu Kavaǧı. After lunch we drove up to Yoros castle which was was a wonderful location to see the entrance to the Black Sea. We drove down the Asian side and stopped to see the Beylerbeyi Palace, the summer palace of the sultans. Dinner was at Akdeniz Hatay Sofrası. The restaurant specializes in food from the southeastern region of Turkey (Hatay).
