Restaurant in Çeşme

Italian-leaning Mediterranean kitchen on the cape, pasta, wood-fired pizza and Aegean fish in a room engineered for long sea-view dinners

Since 1993, the fishing-harbour family room that defined Port Alaçatı before the marina arrived around it

The original Şifne address of the Kabak fish dynasty, the quiet one, where the locals still go

Founded 1953 by the Kadagan brothers from Yugoslavia, the peninsula's archetype of stew-pot Anatolian home cooking, still in family hands

Ilıca Hotel's open-deck Aegean room overlooking the thermal bay, the resort coast's most assured kitchen

The 1974 Uğur Mumcu counter where the Çeşme kumru is still pressed the way the family wrote it, tomato, sucuk, kaşar, no shortcuts

Roberto Fracasso's Hacımemiş courtyard, the only Alaçatı oven where the pizzaiolo is actually Italian
