🇹🇷 OVER 150 YEARS OF TRADITION. ONE SPECIAL NIGHT AT BOSFORO.
The story of Turkish döner goes back centuries, with roots in the Ottoman Empire. While meat was traditionally roasted on horizontal spits as early as the 1600s, the vertical döner we know today emerged in the mid-1800s.
In 1867, İskender Efendi of Bursa helped popularize the technique of stacking seasoned meat vertically, slowly roasting it over fire, and carving it into thin, flavorful slices.
The word “döner” literally means “turning” in Turkish. More than 150 years later, it remains one of Türkiye’s most beloved culinary traditions.
And on October 19, we’re bringing that tradition to Bosforo! 🔥
DÖNER PARTY | MONDAY, OCTOBER 19 | 6 PM
For one night, we’re turning Bosforo into a döner and cocktail party! No regular dinner menu, just freshly carved Turkish döner, handcrafted cocktails, live music, and good company.
