Turkey A - Z
Turkey has an interesting local kitchen. Below you can see some of the local dishes you maybe would like to try during a vacation.
One of the things you should try when travelling around the world is absolutely the local food. Generally you should be able to eat exactly the same as the locals – off course, if the streets are littered with dead bodies, then maybe it is worth to think twice before ordering some local food.
Turkish food is amongst the best in the world. With enough climatic zones to grow most ingredients locally, there is a vast array of produce to excite and entice the palate.
Besides its famous kebab dishes, there are many other traditional Turkish foods to choose from. Meze (appetisers) for which Turkey is justly famous, are a range of hundreds of small dishes from simple combinations such as cheese with melon to elaborately stuffed vegetables. These are served in all Turkish restaurants and are traditionally accompanied with Raki, a clear anise- flavoured spirit claimed to be Turkey’s national alcoholic drink.
Turkey’s most popular beers are the home produced Efes Pilsen and Tuborg, and whilst the wine industry has yet to realise it’s full potential, Kavaklidere and Doluca, the best known brands, produce a selection of both red and white wines.
