Turkeys first coffee lab, inspired by Breaking Bad, has opened in Istanbul following a successful Kickstarter campaign. Fans of the TV series can enjoy crystal-topped cupcakes and blue rock candies while staff wear yellow jumpsuits and gas masks.
Deniz Kosan, owner of Walters Coffee Roastery says opening up the coffee shop was a 10-month process: I wanted to open up a big, huge coffee shop for people where they can feel comfortable and Breaking Bad is just an inspiration actually because it look like a laboratory but its just an inspiration.
The cafe has already attracted regular customers and Kosan is currently negotiating new coffee shops in Dubai, Moscow and New York to be opened in 2016. We have so many tourists, they come from the European side of Istanbul. Theyre asking When are you opening up in Europe?, he explains.
