Highlights
  • Hasırcı Başı Caddesi - Maral and Şüko, a mother-daughter duo, have been dedicated Vegans for many years. They are not only proficient in Vegan Turkish cuisine but also excel in transforming traditional Turkish dishes into Vegan masterpieces.

While I have a particular fondness for dishes like Kısır, Vegan Kokoreç, Vegan Dolma, Vegan Dürüm, and Mücver, their culinary inventiveness goes far beyond what one might expect.

In this culinary adventure, you’ll be welcomed into the warm, inviting home of Maral and Şüko for a Vegan Cooking class in Istanbul. It’s the most authentic and heartfelt setting imaginable for such an experience.

You’ll engage in friendly conversation, getting acquainted before you begin preparing food as though you’re among friends or family. Then comes the highlight: enjoying a communal meal in this cozy atmosphere. Following the feast, you’ll relax with teas and unwind in the company of Maral and Şüko, feeling as welcomed as if you were visiting relatives.

By the time you depart, you’ll have not only learned to prepare exquisite Vegan Turkish dishes but also have formed a bond with a wonderful mother and daughter, making new friends in the process.

So, arrive as a guest and depart as a friend!

Additional Information

It is not easy to find a good Vegan or Vegetarian restaurant to eat in Istanbul. That is why, we, a daughter and a mother, want to invite you to our home to cook, eat and experience Vegan culture in Istanbul with us as well as the famous Turkish Hospitality.

Although, Vegan culture is getting popular among the youngsters, seeing this culture from a mom and daughter, at a home athmosphere will hopefully make this experience unique for you.

Although any Vegan class in Istanbul is unique, cooking with a mother and daughter at a home athmosphere will let you experience the city and the culture in a different perspective.

Visit us at our home, cook and eat with us, just like family and friends!

Great vegan options - Those who think that Turkish cuisine consists only of kebab are very wrong. As anyone who comes to this experience can see, many vegan options cooked at home are also possible. It is a wonderful opportunity for anyone who wants to have fun and learn new things by cooking as if they were at home.

Very inviting - Very nice! It was a really interesting experience and I recommend this to anyone who wants to see how people cook and spend time together in Turkey. Also, it's amazing how rich the food can still be when you cook vegan in Turkey. And of course the delicious recipes from Maral and her Mother are priceless, but you have to be there for that! Definitely recommendable!

Home - There is more than just good food here. Here, a feeling is offered that we carry deep inside us. It is the feeling of being at home. The feeling of being together with the family after a hard day. The feeling of throwing away the school bag after school and following the scent from mum's kitchen. In Germany there is a saying: "Bei Mutti schmeckt's am besten". Sitting at the table with Maral and cutting fresh vegetables while her mother prepared a couscous salad was like meditation for me. All the dishes were delicious and there was even something left over.
