The Guide Istanbul - July/August 2019

Bu konuda

Food-related content has been in constant demand for many years, not only in print, but also taking the lead as the most shared content on social media. Although globally, Turkish cuisine seems to be just a fraction of this trend, for us at The Guide Istanbul it is a subject we've been presenting to our readers for decades and tackling from different angles. The truth is – no matter how much space we dedicate to it, it never seems to be enough. Therefore, encouraged by the success of the debut Food Issue 2018, we decided to turn it into a periodic project delivered to you annually during the summer months.

As most of the content presented to you on the following pages is timeless, we would like for each subsequent issue to compliment and build on the previous edition. To avoid repetition, the most popular content has been published online for you to access at your convenience. To make it easy to find, we placed QR codes throughout the entire magazine, taking you directly to any additional information you might require on the subject. Besides helping you discover the flavors of Istanbul as we did in last year’s edition, this year we take you on a gastronomic tour along the Aegean coast of Turkey. There is no better time than the summer to explore the richness of local cuisine!

In case you missed the last year's edition, it is available for download via the Dergilik app and Magzter digital newsstand. We also have very few print copies available for order via our website for those who like to keep their library shelves fully stocked.
