We started our day off with a classic TURKISH KAHVALTI (Breakfast) down the road at our local restaurant. You’ll be happy to know that in Turkey breakfast is a big deal, so don’t be surprised when they serve you a large spread of food. Our breakie came with Menemen a soggy egg dish, including, capsicum, tomatoes, cheese, olive oil and sausage. Alongside this dish were many others, salad with olive oil and cheese, boiled eggs, fresh bread and condiments. Oh and not to forget your Turkish tea or coffee that are always served black.

For lunch, we stumbled across a very small, local restaurant which served ADANA KEBAP and KOFTE (Turkish meatball). Both were very delicious and were accompanied by a large serving of rice and salad. We also ordered a Coban salad. The food in this restaurant was super fresh and tasty, just like home cooking.

KOKOREC: This may sound weird to some, it is either goat or lamb wrapped in intestines and cooked on a spit roast. All this slow cooking means that the meat with be tender and juicy for you to enjoy. I highly recommend you try this.

And last, but definitely not least. You need to clean your palette with some scrumptious Turkish ice cream; DONDURMA. It may be thick and sticky, but this is only because it is made with orchid flower and mastic. You may be surprised it actually tastes quite delightful!
