Foodie tips

Get more out of every meal.

Tip

The best food in Hakkâri is at the simplest places — family lokanta serving daily specials at 70–120 TRY ($2–3 USD) beat all alternatives on flavour.

Tip

Fresh mountain trout is the unmissable local speciality — go to Alabalık Tesisi or Sat Balık Evi.

Tip

Van otlu peyniri (Van herb cheese) is sold in the bazaar for 150–250 TRY/kg (~$4–7 USD/kg) — an excellent take-home gift.

Tip

The serpme kahvaltı breakfast is best at Hakkâri Çay Bahçesi; allow 2 hours and arrive by 07:30 to beat workers.
