This is our second visit to Icmeler and one of the highlights is always food. We love our food!
We were so glad to see that Hanedan was still here but had it changed like so many other eating places in the area!?
I am happy to report it hasn't unless you count the fact that if anything it's even better. If you are looking for burger, chips, pizza and so on...keep walking! If you are looking for great Turkish food, or just great food full stop, then pay them a visit.
The prices are unbelievable, naturally helped by the exchange rate. The owners and staff are fantastic and attentive. Located midway between the old town and the sea front it's a nice leisurely walk in either direction. A walk you will be grateful of after the meal as well as they are not shy on portions!
We met up with friends this time around and all four of us shared the same high opinion of Hanedan and two years on they continue where others have fallen into oblivion or worse yet for us chosen to English-fi their menus. My word for trying to grasp at any kind of business they can.
Trust me if it continues down that road we shall not be returning. If you are like us and want more Turkish from Turkey then support Hanedan please!
Well that's my bit for now. The suns rising and warming up my forehead and iPad but I just had to post this even before getting home ... Enjoy Icmeler , Turkey and all the traditional things it has to offer. And remember, it's us that make these places what they are much of the time!
