Susona's Michelin Guide-listed dining room, Gürkan Tümsek's micro-local Aegean kitchen, zero-waste, vegetable-forward
Mandarin Oriental's Japanese-Peruvian room, sushi, robata and sake on the resort's main beach, run by the IOKI Istanbul team
Kurochan extends Aret Sahakyan and the IOKI Istanbul team's Japanese-Peruvian playbook to Mandarin Oriental's main beach, sashimi cut to order, tempura that arrives without grease, robata grills sending wood smoke across the terrace, a sake list deeper than anywhere else in Bodrum. The room is dark wood and low light, with an open kitchen that doubles as theatre. Cocktails lean Japanese-floral. It is, by some distance, the peninsula's most serious sushi room.
Sit at the sushi bar if you can, the omakase isn't on the printed menu but the chefs will run one if you ask. Sake list is deeper than the wine list; trust it.
