What do I mean?…read more I mean is if you are in Anatolia Side of Istanbul, if you are in need of catching a breath while you are waiting for Marmaray ( It is a Tube Underground System under Bosphorus) It is next to Natilus Mall which is another convenient for shopping and parking.

This is also completely self service. There is a nice discount for teachers and the setting is lovely. But for good food, maybe go next door to Big Chefs.
