Güllüoğlu Karaköy
The taste of baklava
Güllüoğlu Karaköy is an amazing baklava shop in Istanbul, one of the most famous of all. My tip: don't stop at the baklava, try their lemonade as well!

Turkish Tea
Enjoy a glass of tea
Turkish Tea is had after each meal, and it's a reflection of hospitality. When in Istanbul, have it at small local tea houses in Sultanahmet.

Marika Coffee Shop
New in the neighbourhood
"Marika Coffee Shop" Istanbul is small, cosy, homey, warm and embracing. This is the perfect spot to be social and is already my highlight in Kurtuluş.
