After inventing innovative culinary culture in Turkey and working in the best kitchens of the city, Fatih Tutak went to Qingdao years ago, which he described as ‘China’s Izmir’ in order to continue his professional culinary life.
After Qingdao, he continued his career in Beijing, Tokyo, Singapore, Copenhagen, Hong Kong and Bangkok. In Bangkok, he made into the 2017 the list of The World’s 50 Best Restaurants in Asia while performing his own cuisine at The House on Sathorn, where he was chef. At that very moment, Fatih Tutak has begun to be famous in Turkey. Fatih Tutak, who is among the top 100 chefs in the world, decided to continue his career in Turkey and opened the doors of ‘TURK Fatih Tutak” Restaurant in Bomonti, Istanbul, to his guests in the beginning of December 2019.
With ‘TURK Fatih Tutak” and the strength of his career journey to the best restaurants in the world, Fatih Tutak intended to create a new concept in Turkish cuisine while glorifying the gastronomic history of Turkey. He built the brand concept in order to be able to give the multicultural Turkish cuisine the value it deserved and to tell the story of Turkish cuisine until it is brought from Central Asia.
The spacious open kitchen you see as soon as you enter the venue, gives you a warm feel thanks to its architecture furnished with wood and beige tones. The kitchen consists of eight separate parts and the chef’s table, which are sorted side by side in front of the open kitchen and it is designed for guests who want to perform the tasting and get to know the team closely. Fatih Tutak, who describes the restaurant as “gastronomic, dramatic, theatrical and passionate”, emphasizes that his brand cares about its guests with the flowers and chef letters they put on the tables on a daily basis
“When I was designing TURK Fatih Tutak’s kitchen, I really needed a brand and equipment which I could trust. That’s why I chose to work with Electrolux Professional brand since the first day I arrived. In our kitchen, we chose to use the latest equipment produced by Electrolux Professional with the latest technology. For instance, there is so much to say about the SkyLine PremiumS Oven, which is produced with a multi-purpose, intelligent technology… The most important issue in kitchens like us are the equipment that we use and the correct choice of equipment. SkyLine PremiumS Combi Oven is an oven with many features when you look at it. An oven where you can use many techniques such as Proving, Low Temperature Cooking, Eco Delta Cooking, Regeneration, Static Combi, Sous-Vide, Drying… It is an indispensable element in our meals that we make using many different techniques during the day. That’s why Electrolux Professional SkyLine PremiumS Combi Oven is the most high-tech oven in the world.”
“We first cooked the lamb ribs that we just cooked with the ‘Low Temperature Cooking Technique’ with SkyLine PremiumS Combi Oven, then chilled it in the SkyLine ChillS Blast Chiller, then released it and fried it in Induction in the thermaline Cooking Range. SkyLine PremiumS Oven is most often used for long cooking processes such as Low Temperature Cooking, Eco Delta Cooking, Sous-Vide Cooking, which gives us ease and advantage in terms of time and control.”
“Besides, we also have the SkyLine ChillS Blast Chiller, which we use in our kitchen. You can use features such as Cruise Chilling, Proving, Retarded Proving, Fast Thawing, Chill Sous-Vide, Chocolate Melting. We also use not only Blast Chiller’s ‘Blast Chilling/Blast Freezing’ feature, but also fast thawing and proving. Fast chilling and fast thawing are very important for us in terms of time and product health. Thus, SkyLine ChillS gives us incredible convenience in this sense. Electrolux Professional products are really high-tech and long-lasting products.“
“TURK Fatih Tutak’s menu which includes creative tastes, are prepared with the inspiration of our culture, geography, memories and traditions by using Electrolux Professional Equipments. Each dish has its own character. The products from our soil are carefully processed and each plate is transformed into a work of art. In TURK Fatih Tutak, the menu is frequently changed; it is shaped by nature’s gifts in line with the “micro-seasonality” approach and includes surprises which reflect anything that inspires the chef that day.”
TURK Fatih Tutak continues to interpret the tastes we are familiar with with fine dining concept in its own way in a modern, elegant and simple way and to contribute to the Turkish Gastronomy.

“Besides, Electrolux Professional’s thermaline series is among the most heavily used equipment, and the biggest reason I chose the induction cookware found in thermaline is that a chef quickly reaches and cooks the material without too much working time. Speed and ergonomics are very important to us. In a kitchen like this you need to be able to move really fast and get to the ingredients quickly. So I think the thermaline series is a very advanced cooking series. And it’s really ‘precise’, and it can control the heat very well, which is very useful to us. Electrolux Professional products are really high-tech and long-lasting products. We are really pleased to use Electrolux Professional equipments.”
