Step into a real Istanbul home and cook a proper Turkish meal from scratch, hosted by a local chef who spent years in professional kitchens before deciding this is how she wants to cook: for people, around her own table.
You'll start with Turkish coffee and easy conversation, then get hands-on with traditional dishes like zeytinyagli dolma (stuffed vine leaves), seasonal meze, and hearty mains. Each recipe comes with the story behind it: which region it comes from, who taught it, what it means. No cooking experience needed; Esra guides you through every step at a relaxed pace.
As the food cooks, you'll set the table together, maybe pick up a few Turkish words, and by the time you sit down to eat, it genuinely feels like a meal with a friend rather than a class. Recipes are available on LokalBond Recipes, so you can make the dishes again at home.
