When a friend of ours told us she was taking us to a "Laz" restaurant (people living in the eastern part of the Blacksea, mainly Rize), I accepted without a blink. If there is anything I really like, that is to try regional foods. Mohti Laz Meyhanesi (i.e. tavern), is a wonderful restaurant serving food from the eastern part of the Blacksea. This area is mostly known for its anchovy dishes, such as anchovy with rice and pan-fried anchovy, all of which you can find at Mohti. If you want something different and authentic, this 50 seat restaurant in Asmalimescit Taksim is the perfect place to go.
