ABOUT THE CHEF

For Chef Yusuf Özyürek, who grew up on Burgazada, the bond with cooking began at island tables set around the fire in his childhood and became a journey that reached across the world. His experience in different parts of the world led him to follow the modern, simple yet deep flavours of Mediterranean cuisine.

His menu for Chef Edition 004 opens with aromatic crispy prawns served with lemongrass, fresh coriander and crispy garlic. Next comes beef brisket and oxtail ragù in a sweet potato bun, balanced and full of character with jalapeño, İzmir tulum cheese and pickle spears. To finish, he takes an unconventional turn with pistachio brittle freshened with sumac and crispy baklava pastry, completing the menu with a memorable dessert.

“Good ingredients, the right technique and measured courage…”
