Nesli Nadir

Eight-Hour Lamb Feast with Nesli & Nadir

We are Nesli and Nadir, and we love bringing people together around our table in Istanbul. Our dinners welcome just four guests, leaving plenty of time for good food, conversation, and getting to know one another.

Nesli studied hospitality at Boğaziçi University and worked at Hyatt hotels in Istanbul. She speaks Turkish, English, and French and brings her hospitality experience and eye for detail to every evening.

Nadir grew up in a diplomatic family, with life taking him through the Middle East, Brazil, and more than two decades in South Africa. Those experiences shaped his curiosity about food and his love of sharing stories with people from different places.

Together, we serve Turkish home cooking with personal touches inspired by our travels. Expect a relaxed welcome, thoughtfully prepared dishes, and an evening at a real Istanbul home. Our two Jack Russells, Nitro and Zincir, live with us, so please bear this in mind if you have allergies or are uncomfortable around dogs.
