Tasting Notes
Balıkçı Lokantası is at Tayyareci Sami Sokak 20/B in the Rasimpaşa quarter of Kadıköy. Fish is listed by weight, so a portion is a defined amount.
Grilled and fried fish
From the grill come sea bass and sea bream at 450 g, Black Sea salmon at 300 g, minekop, sardine and bonito. The fried list has anchovy, horse mackerel, red mullet and whiting.
Soup, starters and salad
There is fish soup, fish kavurma, prawns and calamari, and seasonal and shepherd's salads.
“A 250 g fried fish or one grilled fish is enough for a single diner; a group can order fish in different cooking styles and share them.”
