The Deep-Rooted Story of Boyoz

The origins of boyoz trace back to Sephardic Jews who migrated from Spain to İzmir in 1492. Shaped over centuries by İzmir's unique climate and water mineralogy, this flavor has become the city's symbol.

Boyozcu Mahsun Usta keeps this ancient tradition alive, while Lavinia presents this heritage in a modern café experience.
