Changa (restaurant)

It is owned by restaurateurs Tarık Bayazıt and Savaş Ertunç,[1] and operated under the consultancy and supervision of the renowned Kiwi chef Peter Gordon.

[3] Named after the Swahili language word for "mix",[2] Changa is situated in a restored house of Art Nouveau style built in 1903, occupying its all four floors.

[2] The kitchen presents Turkish cuisine blended in line with modern style dishes of Pacific Rim utilizing fusion-method cookery that allows natural ingredients with international flavors to be marinated, cooked and served all in harmony on the same plate.

The fusion technique is centuries-old and was born when the Chinese people moved to America, the Americans adopted the Mexican food, the Africans came to Europe and the French discovered the Indo-Chinese cuisine.

[2] Changa has made a joint effort with a renowned hotel in Bodrum opening a beach restaurant and bar in 2002.
