Rumeli Pastanesi is one of the sweetest traditions of Çeşme — a place where time seems to slow down the moment you step in. With its nostalgic charm and mouthwatering selection of pastries, cakes, and ice cream, it’s more than just a patisserie; it’s part of the town’s soul.

When I pointed out to the ice cream server, he just replied FARK ETMEZ! 🙄. This is the first! You start with a rule and at least follow...
