Although it might take only a couple of minutes to traverse, Bademaltı Sokak – the street running from Moda Caddesi toward the Moda Elementary School – is home to five or six eateries at present. One of the newest establishments here is Kev Cafe, where round-the-clock crowds prove there’s no slowing down in either supply or demand when it comes to cafes in Moda. It’s no surprise that people are drawn in by the cafe’s welcoming vibe – the blend of metal and wooden furniture includes the greatest (decorative) hits of modern cafes such as colorful metal chairs, bare light bulbs dangling from the ceiling and, of course, an open kitchen.
Kev serves all sorts of hot and iced coffees, homemade lemonades and iced teas as well as frozen beverages. If you happen to go for breakfast, we recommend the stacked pancakes, which can be made sweet with jam and chocolate or savory with ham and cheese. In the mood for a full meal? Try the crispy mantı (Turkish ravioli with minced meat) served with yogurt and spices.
