OUR STORY

SELIN + LAURA + OKLAVA

SELIN + LAURA MET IN 2014. A MATCH MADE IN HOSPITALITY HEAVEN, THEY OPENED OKLAVA SHOREDITCH IN 2015, KYSERI IN 2018, WHICH HAS NOW BECOME OKLAVA BAKERY + WINE (OPENED IN 2020).

​

SELIN IS BEHIND THE PASS - RUNNING THE KITCHENS AND DESIGNING THE MENUS - AND LAURA IN FRONT OF IT - TAKING LEAD OF THE FRONT-OF-HOUSE AND SOURCING  REGIONAL WINES FOR THE TWO RESTAURANTS' WINE LISTS.

SELIN PUBLISHED OKLAVA: RECIPES FROM A TURKISH-CYPRIOT KITCHEN IN 2017. IN THE SAME YEAR, SHE WAS A FINALIST ON GREAT BRITISH MENU.
