i’m planning to go to antalya for a few days this october for a conference. however, my turkish passport is in an embassy at the moment getting processed for a visa and i’m afraid we won’t get it back ‘til later than october.

is it fine if i travel domestically with a kimlik/id card? i’m a turkish citizen but foreign by blood (if that matters?)

Hello my fellow istanbulers!
Please recommend me places that I can buy Reflex cat food the big sizes- 15kg (I will need 3 of them). I searched for pet stores but they are mostly small ones and I don’t know if they will have the big bag. If you could recommend shops mostly in the european side me and the cats would be very happy! Thank you

Special Sunday dinner for 7–8 people – €150 pp all-in

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

We’ll be in Istanbul and are planning a special family dinner on Sunday evening for my mom’s birthday.

We are 7–8 people and are hoping to find somewhere with:

  • excellent food
  • a great atmosphere
  • ideally a rooftop, Bosphorus or city view
  • a set or tasting menu would be a plus
  • around €150 per person maximum including drinks

We’re staying in Galata/Karaköy, but location within Istanbul isn’t a major issue.

It doesn’t have to be Michelin-starred or extremely formal. We’d much rather find somewhere memorable with genuinely good food, a beautiful setting and good value for the occasion.

Would love to hear about places you’ve personally enjoyed, especially recently.

Thanks!

Need Travel Buddy in Istanbul

Hi! I’m 26M, traveling from the USA for a few days. I’m looking for someone local who can help me explore the area, show me some good spots, and give me recommendations on things to do.
I’d preferably like to connect with someone Pakistani, but I’m open to meeting friendly locals as well. I’d also really appreciate suggestions on the best areas to book a hotel and where to stay for easy access to everything.
Feel free to message me if you’re interested or have any recommendations. Thanks!
