| Last reviewed: Mar 2026 Chef Nilay Lale, with over 20 years of culinary experience and a background in agricultural engineering, leads the kitchen on the top floor of Khai Hotel Karaköy. Her 10-course tasting menu weaves Anatolian traditions with Mediterranean, Far Eastern, and Indian influences. A sustainability-driven, ingredient-first philosophy shapes every course.
Editor's Tip
Chef Nilay's unusual path from agricultural engineering to cooking informs her ingredient-first approach. The view is a bonus, the food is the reason.
