Cultural lore identifies three great cuisines in the world: French, Chinese, and Turkish cuisines. The influence of Ottoman Turks, who once controlled a vast empire that spanned three oceans and stretched over three continents, is clearly seen and tasted in today’s Turkish Cuisine. There are over 150 recipes for eggplants alone! On this tour, your clients will savor the unmatched original versions of some foods they are familiar with (from Yogurt to Kebabs to Baklava, among others), eat very well, and also learn how to make some great dishes that were created hundreds of years ago!
