A new language of flavor in Karaköy
EBRU ERKE
A new dining culture has been quietly emerging in Istanbul over the past few years. Instead of large-scale, loud and overtly theatrical venues, it is now the smaller concepts, places with a clear point of view, a strong aesthetic language and a distinct identity, that are capturing attention.
People are no longer simply searching for good coffee or good desserts. They are buying into a complete atmosphere: The scent of the room, the music playing in the background, the texture of the packaging, the ceramics on the table, the emotional tone of the space itself. Nestled around the historic Kamondo Stairs in Karaköy, izaz curated palate stands out as one of the most compelling examples of this new sensibility.
