Yalin is an extremely talented and innovative chef who, while bringing his personal touch to every meal, somehow manages to always make it feel like home.

Chef Yalin cooked for us a traditional German dish: Königsberger Klopse. Under other hands, this might have turned out boring, but Chef Yalin knew how to add his own surprising touches without being overbearing. In other words: fusion without being pretentious. And most importantly, it was delicious. Chef Yalin was also incredibly charming and turned out to be a real food scholar. The meal was a delight, both for our senses and our intellect.
