TURK Fatih Tutak is excited to unveil AVLU, a newly designed Welcome Courtyard that invites guests to socialize and unwind in a space that beautifully complements the restaurant’s renowned culinary offerings. This marks a new chapter for TURK, enhancing its unforgettable dining experience with an added layer of warmth and hospitality.

Inspired by Türkiye’s rich cultural heritage and natural beauty, the design of AVLU exudes timeless charm while seamlessly extending the modern sophistication of the restaurant’s interiors. The space is adorned with elegant touches of Turkish artistry and craftsmanship, and an open fire stands at the heart of the courtyard, casting a warm glow over the terrace and welcoming guests into an intimate atmosphere.

Chef Fatih Tutak shares his excitement: “I am thrilled to finally open AVLU. It has been a part of my vision for a long time, and now we can offer our guests a unique extension of the TURK experience, adding a new dimension of hospitality.”

Upon arrival, guests are greeted with an aperitif from a curated selection of Turkish wines, bespoke cocktails, and champagnes. This is paired with an array of new canapés, such as 60-Day Dry-Aged Beef served with Urfa bulgur and TT Selection Caviar, and Double Boiled Chicken Soup with yuzu oil and vermicelli. Each bite is meticulously crafted to provide a tantalizing preview of the culinary journey to come. For those seeking a relaxed end to their evening, AVLU offers post-dinner temptations in this beautiful setting.

TURK’s menu, rooted in a deep respect for Turkish produce, celebrates the nation’s diverse culinary heritage. From a dry-aged native duck dish inspired by Ottoman cuisine to modern reinterpretations of local street foods like mussel dolma, TURK delivers a fresh take on tradition, combining historic ingredients with contemporary techniques.

AVLU promises to enhance the TURK experience, offering guests an elegant space to savor moments both before and after their meal, surrounded by the flavors and culture of Türkiye.
