Caferaga Medresesi

Situated in a peaceful, quiet courtyard very close to Divan Yolu, Yerebatan, Sarayi, and Aya Sofya, this is a perfect place to stop for lunch or a drink. The medresseh itself (medresseh means school) houses workshops and exhibition rooms highlighting traditional Turkish crafts such as calligraphy, ceramics, jewelry, etc. which you can look round either before or after your meal. The food was well-prepared and very tasty and our kick-boxing, friendly and attentive waiter was great!The menu reflects more of a cafe than a restaurant feel. We had lamb meatballs with chilli and spaghetti, a delicious dish of scrambled eggs with tomatos and chilli plus bread and a diet coke each. The total cost for both of us was 13,000,000TL (around £6.00) Sitting in the tranquil courtyard it was gard to imagine the hustle and bustle of the city taking place just minutes away.
