Andrew Temple, Chief Creative Officer, commented on the new menu: “We're excited to transport diners to the vibrant streets of Istanbul and bring authentic yet bold flavours from Southeastern Europe to cities around the UK and Ireland. During our recent travels to the city we embarked on a culinary journey through Istanbul's rich tapestry of flavours, from the vibrant spice bazaars to the charming streets of Ortaköy to discover the perfect juxtaposition of east meets west.”
