Zor

No matter which of Kadıköy’s countless bars you pick for a weekend outing, the nights always ends at Zor. Located inside an inconspicuous apartment building in the Moda nieghbourhood, Zor has pride of place as the prime (and perhaps the only) after-hours spot on the Asian side of Istanbul. Note that the name Zor, meaning “difficult” in Turkish, might as well be referring to their often-strict door policy.
