Mekane in Bodrum

A 5,000-bottle boutique winery rooted in the ancient Myndos terroir — Şiraz, Chardonnay, Öküzgözü

The İhtiyar brothers' 1995 ice-cream counter on Bitez square, before it was a national name

A Gürece atelier making cow-and-goat-milk dondurma with real salep and nothing else — three tables out front

A restored stone-house art village on the Yakaköy ridge — galleries, ateliers, an Ottoman ethnographic room and a film bar

An all-day garden cafe across from the Gündoğan marina — coffee, tapas and live cello in a bohemian Aegean room

A garden patisserie in Bitez, run on sourdough bread and almond croissants

A restored nineteenth-century olive-oil mill in Ortakent, run as a wine and coffee house with a working press
