Hey, everyone! I’m Burak and I have been organizing 8 different in-person Experiences in Istanbul since March 2019 as a full-time Experiences Host. I am currently Airbnb Experiences Istanbul Community Leader.
I was born in the Eastern Anatolian part of Turkey, Van: A city of cats, lakes, mountains, and breakfast. Since my childhood, breakfast has been an important part of my life, especially our family breakfast. And with this experience, I wanted to introduce you to Homemade Turkish Breakfast from my kitchen.
I have a passion for food and its power to connect people, and Turkish culture is a reflection of that power.

A really wonderful experience. Burak was very hands on - even on Zoom - and gave great feedback about the cooking and preparation. He is very knowledgeable and it was a great introduction to Turkish breakfast and a fun and very special experience to share with family and friends.

Who knew a cooking class could feel so exotic yet be so simple at the same time. Outstanding. Highly recommend. I live in a rural area and Burak went so far as to source a Turkish market in a nearby city and send me a map. I had not asked for any info and he stepped up and did the research. I had no idea the store existed. Would recommend his class to all ages and cooking skills. Super!

I regret that I can only give this 5 stars. If you'd like to feel like you were invited into someone's family kitchen for a culturally immersive experience, you can't do better than this. So much more than a cooking class, I left feeling like I'd spent two hours in Istanbul.

Burak's experience felt like cooking with an old friend! It was fun, informative, had a great pace and was really sensory. We were a group of 3 and it was like having an indulgent breakfast with two of my besties. Burak was very attentive to us all and even sang me happy birthday :) If you're looking for a great way to connect with friends & loved ones over food, this experience is for you!
