Cenk Debensason has travelled extensively over the years, and this has shaped his personality as a chef. In brief, he grew up in Istanbul, trained in France, and matured as a chef in the United States. You also get a sense of his journey in his dishes. His spicy twist on a vol-au-vent, featuring al dente green asparagus and a lively gribiche sauce, showcases his understanding of French cooking. The chef seamlessly blends classic techniques with Asian flavours, for example in his perfectly seared sea bass, which he elevates with the intense sweet and sour complexity of a Thai sauce. The versatility of this cuisine will keep you on your toes throughout the entire meal. The vintage feel of this stylish 1960s villa is a perfect match for Cenk Debensason's personality. Be sure to visit the Listening Room on the upper floor before or after your meal to enjoy a delicious drink and the chef's carefully curated playlist – sometimes DJs also play. Alternatively, explore Ritmo, an atmospheric space in the same building where you can choose from a small mezze menu. A visit to Arkestra is an experience you won't forget in a hurry.
