Turkish Simit & Breakfast Cooking Class with a Chef

It was so so fun! Loved the communication beforehand and Bahar came to pick us up and guide us to the workshop from a meeting point which was very easy to find (and paid for our travel!). We were greeted very warmly by everyone once we arrived and served snacks and drinks. Zanib who ran our workshop was a delight. So knowledgeable and fun to interact with. Getting to smell so many scents and really being able to choose something unique to you was amazing and if in any doubt Zanib was there to offer her excellent guidance. I would recommend this to anyone even remotely interested in making perfume or even just looking to fill a couple of hours.

its an amazing spiritual experiance. generations of sufi's have been doing it. it was an honor to witness the ceremony in person.

Honestly, this was the highlight of our trip. It was just the two of us, so we got tons of 1-on-1 time with the instructor, who really knows his stuff when it comes to leather. They actually met us on the European side and navigated us through the metro over to the Asian side, which took all the stress out of it (they even paid the fare). We were sipping on Turkish coffee and tea the whole time - just felt super welcomed. Definitely book this if you’re in Istanbul

This was such an incredible experience! The location was quite unique with a coffee shop outside and artistry area inside. Very quaint! The instructor, Zey, was superb. She was very professional and personal. She was encouraging and helpful!! We had the greatest time doing not only the stained glass but talking with her. The staff was so anxious to share treats and drinks with everyone. I absolutely recommend this and will use this place again.

I had a great time and the perfume is a nice souvenir to take home. The guide was great, the place is very cute and comfortable, we got tea, coffee and some snacks for free. Would 100% recommend!

Loved this activity making the lamp. A perfect keepsake to bring home. The girls in the shop were lovely! The snacks weren’t much, so don’t plan on skipping any meals. But the tea and coffee was very good. The lamp is the important part, and absolutely wonderful!
