House Cafe

Curated by Fahri Atalik, Renaissance Navigator

Istanbul doesn’t wholeheartedly embrace the Roman new year, but in the progressive district of Ortakoy you’ll find a riot of a street party, and the best views in the city. It’s best to book a table at the House Cafe, which not only has stupendous views but will ensure you don’t get caught in the crush of the crowd. Have a few glasses of raki, the local anise-flavored inebriant. It’s a bit bitter but will grow on you!
