During this experience, guests are invited to our home. We begin by introducing the ingredients and special spices used in Çiğ Köfte. While the goal is to teach the preparation of Çiğ Köfte, the greater aim is to share the concept, tradition, and culture surrounding it.
Once everyone feels comfortable and at home, we will sit together and begin kneading Çiğ Köfte, allowing as much participation as desired. There are various jokes and methods for testing the taste and intensity of Çiğ Köfte, which will be shared during our time together.

Learning to make anything with new people creates a unique bond between people. Instead of only the feeling of just travelling in a city, you get to feel to be a part of the city and culture at its highest.
We try to make people have these feelings through creative at-home experiences. Because we believe that feeling at home and being made feel at home…

Çiğ köfte, a very traditional Southeastern Turkish dish, fits to what we try at LokalBond. Çiğ köfte got popular as being a Turkish vegeterian street food. However, in reality, it is a home food where a lot of people gathers and watches it being prepared. At this experience, you will be a part of the cooking team and knead Çiğ Köfte with locals. Then throw it to the ceilings to see if it sticks to see its stiffness. This is also a part of the tradition, but of course we won’t do it due to hygiene reasons.
Come, join us at our home for an original Çiğ Köfte session. Come as a guest, leave as a friend!
