Two high school teens, who are best friends, Lara and Revna were continually exploring the beautiful city Istanbul for three years, until Lara had the opportunity to experience a whole one year in Charleston in the USA by AFS Exchange program. But this separation was not the end of their friendship and explorations, unlike it was a beginning. While Revna was continuing to get around in Istanbul's elegant streets, Lara was challenging her with her discoveries in Charleston. And now, after about two years Lara is going to study in the beautiful city Toulouse in France. This is again another beginning of an adventure for these friends after their funny 'intercontinental' competition. Now their page is dedicated to share the colorful memories of their friendship and their new discoveries both in Turkey and France, especially in İstanbul and Toulouse!

A small break at Cafe Velvet
Nowadays cute little cafes open up at every corner in the side streets. They are usually really really small but that is actually the sweet thing about them :) People decorate these little places so creatively and fill the inside with lots of stuff that there is only space for a few steps maybe :D They are such like little museums and I love this fact about them!
And here is one of those cute little cafes : CAFE VELVET
This cafe is in a side street in Galata : When you stand in front of this famous Galata Tower, there is this hotel right at the corner on your right side and there is a small street going down . Go down that street and you are gonna see this little cafe on your left side.
It is cozy.
It is cheap.
The music is super good. (slow and relaxing)
The owners are very kind.
Their products are tasty.
You just feel at home! Both the atmosphere and the products make you feel home. Because what they prepare is all homemade. The menu is just simple: hot drinks,cold drinks and some breakfast dishes and a few homemade pastry stuff.
I sometimes adore these simple menus cause it is just easier to pick something as the menu does not get you confused. What I picked was a homemade Turkish dessert called HOMEMADE UN HELVASI and that tasted AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS!
You can also try their Breakfast options such as MENEMEN or HOMEMADE BOREK. For drinks I suggest you their yummy fresh homemade lemonade!
What I really liked was the way they serve the coffee: together with a little milk in a cute authentic glass and two homemade cookies.
Such little details are always important!
