Poseidon

Bebek Cuisines: Seafood, Arabic

About

Almost as soon as this Bebek Bosphorus-front restaurant got a face-lift back in 2003, the actors, politicians, expats, and sporting celebrities started to roll in. It's got quite a loyal following now, particularly among jet-setting local residents. The bay at Bebek is particularly scenic with the twin fez-like towers of the Egyptian consulate rising above Bebek marina. When you take your eyes off the view and take note of the menu, you'll see seasonal specialties from the sea such as sea bass, bluefish, and red mullet. The fish appetizers are dreamy, and I'm a sucker for a plate of seaweed (seriously). Try to resist the bread basket, or you'll fill up on corn bread and focaccia before your first course arrives.
