Gallada

Located on the Bosphorus Strait, Gallada is the brainchild of storied chef Fatih Tutak, who in 2019 moved back home to Turkey and opened the restaurant inside The Peninsula Istanbul. Here, chef Fatih delivers a unique gastronomic experience, taking diners on a journey down the ancient Silk Road, with foods from Turkey, central Asia and China. In 2022, the restaurant was awarded two Michelin Stars in the inaugural edition of the Michelin guide to Istanbul. Dishes include lamb kebabs, char-grilled kafta with tahini, wood-fired monkfish and medjool date cake with masala tea and whipped buffalo cream.
