Welcome to my home in the heart of Istanbul, where we'll embark on a delightful journey into the heart of Turkish cuisine. As you step through the door, you're not just a guest; you're a friend, and I'm excited to share the warmth of our hospitality with you. We'll begin our experience with a genuine touch of Turkish hospitality – a cup of traditional Turkish tea or coffee. We'll take a moment to chat and get to know each other. It's a chance to exchange stories about our cultures, creating a connection that goes beyond the kitchen. After that, I'll guide you through every step of cooking dolma, sharing the secrets and techniques. We'll immerse ourselves in the true essence of Turkish culinary traditions. As we are done with the cooking, we'll gather around the table to savour the dolma we've created together. This isn't just a meal; it's a celebration of friendship and cultural exchange. We'll share laughs, stories, and perhaps a few more sips of tea or coffee as we enjoy the fruits of our labour. My goal is for you to feel like more than just a participant; I want you to leave as a friend, carrying a piece of Istanbul and its traditions with you.
