The food in Turkey changed how I think about travel

I travel for food more than anything else, and Turkey shot straight to the top of my culinary travel list. kebab alone justified the flight, but that was just the beginning. The variety and quality in Antalya is relentless — I didn't have a single disappointing meal in 9 days.

Cappadocia fairy chimneys gave context to everything I was tasting. The history and culture feeds into the food in ways you can feel. exceptional food completed the picture. Already planning a return trip focused entirely on eating my way through a different region.
