Riverside Café

Description:

• The Riverside Café, set in a private garden with tables reed-side, highlights the Turkish tradition of food preparation by grilling everything, from shrimp, calamari, and a daily selection of fresh fish, to chicken and lamb, all on an oversize outdoor charcoal barbecue. Hopefully the original Riverside will transfer some of its recipes, such as the flavorful seaweed salad, the appetizer of anchovies and sardines, and the marinated calamari, over to this location. One caveat, however: Bring lots of mosquito repellent.
