Hatay cuisine comes to Four Seasons Sultanahmet

ISTANBUL - Hürriyet Daily News

Hatay province in southeastern Turkey has been affected by many different cultures over the last 2,000 years, and that is reflected in the types of dishes that make up its cuisine, with influences ranging from Roman to modern Turkish. Hors d’oeuvres, main courses and desserts are prepared with fresh, local ingredients.

From April 16-30, the award-winning Seasons Restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel in Sultanahmet will be focusing on Hatay specialties for lunch and dinner. The menu will include dishes like bakla ezmesi (mashed broad beans), ispanak boraniye (garbanzo beans and meat with salted yogurt) and kaytaz böreği (flaky pastry with ground lamb and pepper).
