Best Restaurants in Moda, Kadıköy
The Asian side of Istanbul has always been a mystery for visitors because of its mostly residential demeanor. It’s true that Kadıköy is a real ‘mahalle’ (community-focused neighbourhood) where everyone still knows their neighbours, street cats and dogs are always taken care of, and an eco-friendly approach is always preferred. Moda is Kadıköy’s coolest area where the young people reign with their bars, shops, restaurants and cafes. Always crowded with locals (and visitors), Moda has a few excellent restaurants that are worth the ferry ride across the Bosphorus.

Definitely the neighbourhood’s favourite café, Yer really reflects the eclectic vibe of Moda with its retro décor and very casual demeanor. Inside, you’ll find framed pieces of art by local artists, mismatched colourful tables and chairs, and original tile flooring. On the outside terrace, locals sit and chat over a cup of coffee or work on their laptops, while the neighbourhood’s daily to-and-fro passes by on the street. As for the menu, Yer has something to offer from breakfast to after dinner cocktails, as well as coffee. If you’re fond of the all inclusive Turkish breakfast, try the Yer breakfast spread with different kinds of cheeses, olives, jams and eggs. For lunch, you can go healthy with a wheat salad or try something heartier like the salmon pasta with tomato sauce.
