Fantastic authentic experience.
Ocak is a very interesting restaurant in the oldest part of Istanbul. Not far from the big beautiful mosques lie this little gem created in an old historic building. The food and service are top notch and on par with the best of the best we have tried of top restaurants in town. What characterizes the kitchen is that the chef tries to give his guests the best presentation of the local Turkish - Anatolian country cuisine served in the restaurant's beautiful surroundings.
I would highly recommend this reastaurant and if you have the opportunity to meet chef Omer you will get many culinary stories as a nice supplement to the food.
