To the Green Corner Café
In ancient Constantinopleâs heart, where centuries dance among the minarets, there lies a green haven, a breath of peace â the Green Corner CafĂ©, a quiet dream.
Among tall trees that brush the sky, and flowers speaking the language of love, life drifts gently, suspended in time, through scents of mint and whispers of laurel.
There, where time itself sips its çay, and the nargileh hums its slow poetry, cradling tourists and city souls alike, the spirit of vibrant Istanbul lives.
Fifteen years of stories and smiles, of meals shared and slow-spoken words, there I met, as if heaven had planned it, my friend, my brother â dear Osman.
With him laughed the breeze from the Bosphorus, through jokes, silences, and turquoise dreams â I miss him now more than words allow, as the moon is missed by a hurried night.
Oh Green Corner, refuge and mirage, youâre more than a cafĂ©, a secret home, a forest of wonder in the worldâs heart, where each return is a new promise.
So toast today for those far away, for Osman, for me, for all who stay. May you live forever, gentle oasis, in the timeless breath of delicate Byzantium. Osman...

   Read moreA happy find! Came across this place on the way back to our hotel after sightseeing all day. Had the grilled salmon which was one of the best fish dishes I've had, it was cooked to perfection. Very begrudgingly shared a tiny bit with a stray cat, as it was so good I wanted it all to my self!
Atmosphere was amazing, with some excellent live music. The staff were great and one of the waiters was very down to earth and helpful. He even brought us some complimentary tea when we struggled to book a taxi in the pouring rain. The tea was great and we really enjoyed our stay there. And we were very happy to find some really decent fish selection, lots of stuff on the menu to choose from and the wait for the food isn't long.
Great location, great food and great atmosphere....
