概要
Chef and restaurateur Somer Sivrioğlu has always cooked between cultures, and right now, he’s doing it louder than ever. From opening Hamsi Taverna at the iconic Sydney Fish Market to judging 200 episodes a year on MasterChef Turkey, Somer is redefining what modern Turkish cuisine looks like across continents.
In this episode, we unpack:
- The vision behind Hamsi and bringing Aegean seafood culture to Sydney
- Why charcoal and line-caught mackerel matter
- How he helped shift Australia’s perception of Turkish food beyond kebabs
- The vegetable-forward traditions of the northern Aegean
- Why meat in Turkish homes is often used as flavouring, not a centrepiece
- The evolution of Turkish restaurants in Australia
- The pressure and privilege of shaping a nation’s food conversation on television in Turkey
- What it really takes to run restaurants between Istanbul and Sydney
When Somer opened Efendy in 2007, diners questioned whether Turkish cuisine belonged in a refined dining room.
Today, through venues like Anason (meze bar at Barangaroo), Maydanoz (vegetable-driven Turkish cuisine), Hamsi (seafood-focused Mediterranean concept) and Efendy in Istanbul, he’s helped reshape the narrative. This is a conversation about identity, technique, tradition, and evolution and chefs who build bridges (not just menus).
