Mimas, named for the peninsula's old name, runs at the Mordoğan iskele on the water's edge: a Karaburun fish address that priced honestly and pulled fish from the local boats, with whatever the morning iskele brought hand-written onto the menu. The room is unfussy, the bill is well below the Çeşme standard, the crowd is more İzmir weekenders than Istanbul yazlıkçıs. The trip from Çeşme is ninety minutes; the texture and the price drop, the freshness holds. The peninsula axis when you want to step out of the Yıldızburnu-Marina rhythm for an afternoon.

Editor's Tip

Drive out from Çeşme along the Karaburun road, either as Karaburun-day lunch or a Mordoğan dinner. Ask what the morning brought rather than reading the menu.
