The crowds flowing from Taksim Square tend to sweep visitors onto İstiklâl Caddesi; the cars and kebab shops that line the top of Sıraselviler Caddesi, one street to the left of the famous pedestrian thoroughfare, don’t exactly draw you in.
But
just out of sight is one of the most attractive parts of Istanbul.
After a
couple of minutes’ walk from Taksim, its arrival is heralded by a great
old-fashioned Istanbul patisserie, Savoy.
Across the street and down the stairs
is Otto, a fashionable café/bar in a shady tree-filled courtyard.
