Fair warning: This isn't just a regular cooking class, it's a 'lick-your-fingers' kind of delicious feast! The aroma of the hot simit coming straight out of the oven from your own hands, combined with our chef's secret breakfast recipes, will blow your mind.”
Master the secrets of Istanbul's most iconic street food and traditional flavours. For the price of a standard Turkish breakfast you'd buy at any restaurant, this immersive experience grants you a complete culinary masterclass! Learn centuries-old recipes from a professional chef, get hands-on in the kitchen, and enjoy a hearty meal with unlimited Turkish tea.
Under the guidance of our expert chef, you will experience every step of making authentic simit—from kneading the dough to baking it perfectly in a professional oven. Master the traditional molasses-dipping technique and the crunchy sesame seed coating that gives simit its signature texture.
We Turn Baking Time into a Cooking Masterclass!
While waiting for the simit dough to rise and bake, we don't just sit around. During these kitchen intervals, our professional chef will teach you how to prepare the ultimate Turkish breakfast hot and cold dishes step-by-step:
✨Menemen: The famous, juicy Turkish scrambled eggs with fresh tomatoes and peppers.
✨Acuka: A rich and flavourful Turkish breakfast spread made with walnuts, tomato and pepper paste, garlic, olive oil, and aromatic spices.
✨Homemade Jam: A delicious, traditional fruit preserve made from scratch.
At the end of the workshop, gather around a warm, shared table to savour your freshly baked hot simits, menemen, and acuka. Enjoy the full breakfast spread you created, complemented by unlimited, complimentary Turkish tea and traditional hospitality.
