A five-course bluefish menu and a fishermen's talk, with bluefish stories from the senior captains of Rumelikavağı.
An evening devoted entirely to bluefish at the height of the season. The table opens with bluefish soup and continues with marinated bluefish, a fillet en papillote, whole grilled bluefish and bluefish pilaki.
Our guest is Captain Ahmet of Rumelikavağı, who has fished the Bosphorus with line and gillnet for 40 years. He will talk about the migration route of the bluefish, why the minimum size rule matters and bluefish fishing in old Istanbul. There are 60 places at long shared tables.
The menu is priced per person; drinks are not included. Alcohol is served only to guests aged 18 and over.
