Lo más divertido de mi viaje a Turkia fue la clase privada de cocina con Necati Yilmaz en restaurante Deraliye. Aprendí desde lo más básico, hasta preparar platos facilismos platos otomanos y por último saborearlos. El restaurante esta muy cerca de Hagia Sofia en el corazón de la antigua Constantinopla, hoy el barrio de Sultanahmet. A pocos pasos de mi hotel. A mi regresó estoy segura de que intentaré repetir los platos y siempre me recordaré de esta experiencia en Estambul.

It's not often you get a chance to do a cooking class in a Michelin restaurant.
There was a bit of confusion with the driver telling me to get off at Sura hotel, which is across from the restaurant, with no further guidance..but just make your way to Deraliye Restaurant if you're in that situation.
The chef was not just talented but extremely also friendly and of course patient, a must when it comes to me in the kitchen. The dishes were both simple and also full of flavor.
You spend about 1-1.5 hours of cooking in total, and you're rewarded with an amazing 3-course meal at the end.

A terrific experience learning to prepare Turkish cuisine. Chef Halil is a fabulous instructor - she provided clear explanations, and demonstrated superb technique. I'm vegan, and was excited to experience how the various spices, ingredients, and cooking process translate to veganism. The entire staff was absolutely delightful and engaging which made for a fun experience.
