Without leaving Turkey, we move to Gaziantep, in the Southeastern Anatolia Region, where Tahmis Kahvesi was opened in 1635 as the first-ever Byzantine café. Nowadays, this traditional coffee house still offers different types of coffee, among which is it possible to order the legendary menengic khavesi, brewed with pistachio, a sublime local treat, and another traditional coffee-based beverage prepared with the seeds of the turpentine tree. Coloured lamps, charming, stained windows and all-wood furniture warm up an enchanting atmosphere, often inebriated by some typical Turkish live music.
