Maçakızı's executive chef, Aret Sahakyan, shares the Ayla Privé pass — the resort's private space, an open kitchen facing the Aegean — with Massimiliano Delle Vedove of Madrid's Smoked Room (2 Michelin stars). An 8-course menu (4 per chef) rooted in the local Mediterranean, just 35 covers. Maçakızı has been the historic epicentre of the Türkbükü jet-set since the 1970s.
Line-up : Chefs Aret Sahakyan and Massimiliano Delle Vedove; Maçakızı regulars — shipowners, collectors and the Turkish-international elite of Türkbükü
