Our
History

Asset 2_2x.png

CULTURES, NATIONS, FLAVORS...
MEDITERRANEAN IS A CROSSROAD.

The Mediterranean is home to various cultures, nations, and flavors. From Lebanon to Anatolia, the Aegean Sea to Greece, a plethora of spices and vegetables come together as every culture inspires each other. As Zeugma, we feel each culture within ourselves. Like a mosaic, we are made from numerous pieces which are combined in perfect harmony.

Anatolia, which has been the bridge between the Middle East, Aegean, and Europe for millennia and acted as the home to the cultures of countless tribes and states that passed by, is now our menus source of inspiration. We modernize ancient dishes using new recipes and unite east with west, and traditional with modern.
