You'll definitely want to skip the overpriced and frugal hotel breakfast and head instead to nearby Besiktas Market where Kaymakci Pando, a popular hole-in-the-wall, has been serving up a traditional Turkish spread of buffalo cream, honey, fresh bread, olives and eggs for nearly as long as the Akaretler Row Houses have been around. It's good to know some...
