Hakkasan İstanbul

Luxury chain Hakkasan likes to establish itself in vibrant cities, and Istanbul is obviously no exception. This restaurant enjoys a prime location at the Mandarin Oriental Bosphorus, which boasts stunning views over the water and exudes Asian elegance with a personal touch. The crispy duck salad, a classic of the house, is a shining example of how Cantonese cuisine is revamped here: the duck skin is incredibly crispy, the meat combines a fine spiciness with a mild sweetness, and the salad offers an interesting contrast with juicy pomegranate. Delicious! And it's absolutely worth taking a look at the exclusive wine list.
