Hiç Restaurant:
A Forest-to-Fork Restaurant in Urla
The Hiç Restaurant, once a Greek theatre in the 20th century, prepares all organic products that are grown in the edible Hiç Olive Forest where local flavors are interpreted with simple yet modern methods. The foraging process in the forest dictates the ever-changing seasonal menu.
While collecting the seasonal gastronomic wealth of our region we are constantly researching and developing ideas to deliver the best and freshest material while keeping a fair price-quality relationship.
The organic Hiç Olive Forest in Urla, where over 60,000 olive trees flourish in the wild, is brought to the table as New Urla Cuisine. The New Urla Cuisine movement emphasizes the earth’s diversity, the seasonality of its fruits and its closeness to nature.
Hiç Restaurant serves our vision of foraging nature in the most accurate representation of Turkey. The plate benefits from the forest wealth with fresh herbs, fresh spices, honey, olives, olive oil and all natural and organic products. It offers a real taste experience using traditional dishes. Our wine cellar also supports local wine producers by offering a variety of local wines.
With its strong kitchen technology, the New Urla Cuisine emphasizes seasonality and locality. We also produce our own products from bread to sauce and jam to dry meat.

Each season the olives are individually picked by hand. After harvesting they are quickly transfered to the mill and cold pressed within six hours. The processing of the olives happens at the Hiç Production Facility which is 10 minutes away from the forest. In this way, an oil with high polyphenols and rich in aromas is obtained. Urla Cooking Class is situated inside the Production Facility location in Bademler Village, Urla.
