welcome to malva, SEASON BY DESIGN.

At Malva, every detail begins with the season. Our menus are shaped by what the land offers today, bringing together fresh ingredients, thoughtful technique and the diverse culinary heritage of Turkey.

From the spice of the southeast to the salt of the Aegean and the sweetness of Anatolian summer fruit, each plate reflects a different landscape and moment.

Familiar flavours are reimagined with a contemporary approach, creating a dining experience that feels rooted, expressive and always in step with nature.

Sefa Birinci | Chef de Cuisine

Born and raised in Adana, I discovered my passion for cooking through the rich traditions and shared meals of Anatolian culture.

Today, my approach combines those roots with contemporary techniques, guided by seasonality, craftsmanship and respect for every ingredient. I believe great cuisine is not about complexity, but about creating honest flavors that leave a lasting memory.

From seasonal menus to thoughtful pairings and intimate
gatherings, every Malva experience is shaped with intention.
