Unrivalled Cuisine
If civilizations are to be judged by the refinement of their palate, Turks may be among the most cultured urbanites in the world. For 500 years, the Ottoman Empire ruled much of the world and its great chefs created a sumptuous cuisine which rivalled other world cuisines. So it is hardly surprising that Turkey boasts one of the world’s richest cuisines owing to its superb location at the confluence of the Mediterranean and Black Sea worlds, with easy access to the fertile farmlands of Thrace and the agricultural riches of the Anatolian hinterland. Contemporary Turkish food is amazingly varied and diverse, due to the infinite variety of fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, fish and fowl all available in Turkey. A Turk’s very existence revolves around the table – be it at the kitchen “sofra” at home or at the myriad restaurants found in every corner of every city. Turkish chefs are famous for their creativity and even the humblest establishment often has a unique house speciality. There is something for every taste, from melt-in-the-mouth stuffed aubergines to tender lamb kebab to a vast array of meze starters or rich pistachio-stuffed baklava.
