About Me
I’m Kaya Demirer, a restaurateur and hospitality professional with three decades’ experience of developing and operating a range of restaurant, bar, club and hotel concepts that have been and still are the talk of the town.
I am the President of TURYID, the Turkish Restaurant & Entertainment Association since 2011, as well as regularly serving in a number of other high-level sector policy roles.
I have also hosted restaurant-themed TV series, organised industry conferences on a local level (especially on Gastroeconomy) and other events, and much more besides.
