Van Kahvaltı Evi in Cihangir is your go-to spot for an authentic Turkish breakfast, offering generous portions, friendly service, and a cozy vibe.
"Become a Morning Person A proper Turkish kahvalti (breakfast)spreadshould cover the table withsmall, colorful dishes, including assorted cheeses, fresh tomatoes and cucumber, cured olives, and many varieties of jams and spreads. A proper Kurdish breakfast will be enjoyed at leisure and possibly not first thing in the morning. Van Kahvalti Evi serves both traditional Turkish and Kurdish breakfast dishes from Van (a Kurdish town in eastern Turkey) all day, with plenty of glasses of hot tea. Try menemen : scrambled eggs with tomatoes, peppers, and onions, or savory gözleme (flatbread) filled with cheese and potato. Be sure to save room for a side of kaymak (clotted cream), to be enjoyed spread on bread and drizzled with honey. It's enough to make anyone a morning person, or at least a breakfast person."
"A traditional Turkish breakfast spot offering a selection of salty white cheeses, hard-boiled eggs, muhammara, bal-kaymak, and a basket of warm bread that the waiters will keep refilling despite your protests."
