Cafe in Çeşme

An Italian gelataio who fell for the Aegean and now churns the peninsula's most honest gelato off a Hacimemis corner

Stone terrace at the gate of Erythrai antique city, the Ildırı sunset bench with takımadalar in frame

The Akbulut family's 2014 Alaçatı gelato counter, a Financial Times top-25 boutique, a hundred-and-fifty rotating flavours, made on site every morning

Tomris Maravent's 2004 corner café, the steady Alaçatı pulse, eight tables that grew into the village living room
