"Chef Michael Caines in Istanbul
Great culture means great cuisine, says the award-winning chef who follows his nose to Istanbul
I don't expect to be served pizza as one of Istanbul's traditional dishes, but here it comes - thin bread like pitta, with tomato sauce. It's simple and authentic, and I love it.
This is part of my family's first meal in the city, served on the terrace of the Hamdi Et Lokantasi restaurant. The food tastes all the better because of the wonderful view overlooking the Golden Horn, an estuary separating the old and the new parts of European Istanbul. "
