Artuklu, Turkey
Piyal Wine House & Italian Restaurant
In Artuklu, southeastern Turkey's most historically layered district, Piyal Wine House and Italian Restaurant occupies a quiet address on Soner Sokak where a wine-forward program meets Italian kitchen principles. It is an unusual pairing for this part of Anatolia, where the culinary default runs toward kebab and lahmacun rather than pasta and Barolo. For travelers passing through Mardin province, it represents a deliberate change of register.
