About

1 Michelin Star. Chef Zeynep Pınar Taşdemir's intimate restaurant in Sarıyer's Yeniköy district celebrates the richness of Turkey's local produce with a vegetable-forward philosophy. Named after the Turkish word for "pea," Araka balances spicy, savory, and tangy flavors with minimal intervention, letting seasonal vegetables and herbs shine alongside fine seafood.
