Where to Eat in Izmir

Izmir does not get nearly as much love as bigger cities like Istanbul, but in my humble (and very bias) opinion it’s worth stopping by for its café culture and…

  • Throwback to the first signs of fall in Boston. The leaves are finally changing here at home in the Bay Area, but has nothing on the show going on over there on the East Coast🍁
  • Boston never disappoints when it come to a diverse range of food. Writing about new discoveries and old favorites up on the blog today.
  • Introducing my family to one of my favorite local Mexican spots. Located in an unassuming strip mall, this spot won me over with its warm service, homemade corn tortillas, and high quality ingredients (esp the meat). Worth a stop if you're in Pleasant Hill🌮✨
  • A multicultural feast with Syrian, Turkish, and Ukrainian influences. This beautiful Friday night meal made by @sincapfirin❤️
  • Being creative with end-of-the-week fridge ingredients. Had a lone bratwurst, some mushrooms, and leftover basil do I decided to pick up naan bread and sauce and voila something that closely resembles 🍕✨
  • One of the oldest bookstores in Boston, with rows of books on the outdoor shelves. This is one reason why I love this city. Writing about this place and some other spots I love around town up on thee olde blog (link in the profile).
  • I went to college just down the road, but never stopped by this stunning home-turned-museum until now. The interior garden was so captivating. Would love to come back for a concert here🎶Also, everyone named Isabella gets in free😊
  • Back in the Bay Area, but just wanted to post a few more photos from my Boston trip. This Korean restaurant was the one restaurant I was looking forward to the most. It's in my old Allston neighborhood and actually serves some fusion Mexican/Korean dishes as well, but I just stuck with the classics. Can't go wrong with bibmbap and kimbap.
  • Do you ever revisit familiar cities and end up gravitating towards old favorites for food? I frequented this deli often when I lived nearby in Allston, and was a broke college grad. The bagels are warm and chewy just the way I like it and they give a generous portion of lox. The deli has been around for almost four decades and feels like home.w
  • Nothing like the historical charm of Beacon Hill to make me fall in love with Boston all over again. Seriously missing this East Coast charm and the 80 degree weather doesn't hurt✨
