Dear Readers,
The third issue of GF Turkey presents, as has been established,
highly-exclusive articles covering a wide range of multi-faceted
luxury topics. In order to pay tribute to the 250th anniversary
of Baccarat, the title of the magazine refle ts its renowned
crystal manufacture and the glamourous world of fine dining.
Most famously known for perfectly sculptured crystal in form
of elaborately cut glasses and decanters, chandeliers, precious
perfume fla ons, decorative elements and jewelry, Baccarat’s
prestige has long gone far beyond the reach of the French
borders.
Turning our gaze toward another brand rich in tradition, we
discover more about Frette – an Italian vendor of luxury textiles
– whose long-standing history reaches back to the year of
1860.
In combination with meticulous quality policies, the company’s
traditions have resulted in a well-founded prosperous
establishment on international markets. Constant perfection is
the firm foundation of well-rooted brands which in turn are the
main focus of this edition. Manufactories, such as Jaquet Droz or
Vacheron Constantin – creating fascinating time-pieces – Graf
Von Faber Castell’s artfully crafted writing utensils are there; you
can enjoy these articles. Besides, there is need an extra new
line for Sevan Bıçakçı who engraved the 7 beautiful names of
Allah on ring. These are a few among many. However, they

A GREEK IN ISTANBUL<br />
OUZO ROOF<br />
RESTAURANT<br />
Wyndham Grand Istanbul Kalamis Marina<br />
Hotel’s restaurant Ouzou stole our hearts<br />
with its spectacular view, impeccable<br />
service and delicious menu. The restaurant<br />
named after Ouzou, Greece’s traditional<br />
drink, opened in 2014 and offers dishes<br />
from Mediterranean cuisine.<br />
Ouzo Roof Restaurant is on the terrace of Wyndham Grand<br />
Istanbul Kalamis Marina Hotel where luxury and com<strong>for</strong>t meets.<br />
In the previous days we visited this hotel which is one of the most<br />
prestigious hotels at the Anatolian side of Istanbul. I must admit<br />
that the gratifying landscape of the terrace feast your eyes on.<br />
The marina hotel is offering breathtaking views of the Sea of<br />
Marmara.<br />
By the way, sunset at Ouzo Roof Restaurant is a sight <strong>for</strong> sore eyes.<br />
163<br />
Let’s talk about the restaurant’s ambrosian menu…<br />
Even ordering a few starters, you can have a light and delicious<br />
dinner. However, we tried delicacies from every part of the menu.<br />
Smoked octopus with tarragon, stuffed squid with Turkish Obruk<br />
Cheese, shrimp on avocado puree was our favorites of starters.<br />
Renowed delicacies, scallop and shrimp rolls wrapped with<br />
kataifi are also included in Ouzou’s menu and cooked extremely<br />
successful. But the fl vours of some specialties such as grilled<br />
cutlet calamary and octopus on Santorini fava still lingers.<br />
Alongside these dishes, we also recommend you the Ouzou salad.<br />
And it’s time to announce the star per<strong>for</strong>mer of our table. Veal<br />
entrecote served on hummus with blueberries is a must try fl vor.<br />
A light meal alternative despite its name. The restaurant doesn’t<br />
have a wide range dessert menu, but rich enough to please<br />
all tastes. The guests may choose from traditional tastes like<br />
semolina dessert or nut pumkin. Or choose a lighter option like<br />
green apple mousse if you feasted like us. Ouzo Roof Restaurant<br />
should also be considered as a pleasant alternative <strong>for</strong> brunch on<br />
Sundays from 11:00 to 15:00 hours.<br />
