The valley spreads before you with wild flowers, apricot and plum trees and rugged rocks – with such a breathtaking view, securing a table on the terrace of this traditional house is a must. Ayşe and Adem Koçdemir have an intimate relationship with their terroir and work almost exclusively with local ingredients, including produce from their own garden. Dishes are presented on wonderful terracotta tableware: delicacies such as a tomato broth with peppers and olive oil that tastes both sweet and subtly confit, accompanied by cracked bulgur and fantastic Turkish bread. Then there are the stuffed vine leaves with aromatic rice and peppers… The wood-fired oven is expertly deployed to create this robust yet delicate cuisine. Only a single set menu is available, and booking ahead is essential to experience this homage to Cappadocia.
