Well, think we might as well rename July-August as High Summer! Every month, we do a little news round up of goings on in and around Fethiye – points of interest that wouldn’t merit their own blog post – and also a bit of a recap of what we’ve up to, too. Hmm, well if …
In this post, we want to talk about a Turkish street food favourite: Ortaköy Kumpir. Kumpir is available in many of Turkey’s towns and cities but there is one little neighbourhood that is oh-so-famous for this slightly peculiar member of the Turkish street food family. First of all, let us set the scene for our …
(Update 2017: If you want a bit more luxury, Sultan Camp now also has deluxe bungalows with en suite bathrooms. There are also tents for hire if you want to be ‘under canvas.’) We love staying at Olive Garden, Chakra Beach and Tree Houses in Kabak – but, this time, we thought we’d go to …
Hmm, I think we can well and truly say, Fethiye is definitely on the music map of Turkey, these days. Past blog posts in years gone by have seen us sulking a tad because none of our favourite Turkish bands – even non-favourite Turkish bands for that matter – ever had Fethiye as part of …
(This Zentara Beach And Kitchen article was last updated summer 2017) Zentara Beach And Kitchen is in an area that forces us to reminisce. “I remember when all this was fields.” That kind of saying that parents used to say. Koca Çalış Before Zentara Beach & Kitchen We’re a good few years into our life …
We’re sure he won’t mind us telling you this – well, we’re telling you anyway, aren’t we – but our lovely friend Anıl, Mr Tech Expert, foXnoMad , has a bit of a penchant for (or addiction to) çiğ köfte. He loves the stuff. A few years ago, he came to stay with us in …
Summer is when dishes like this green lentil salad recipe really come into their own. What to eat when the weather is hot, hot, hot? You know you need to eat but you just don’t know what you feel like. Nothing too stodgy, that’s for certain. That’s what we’ve been feeling like recently, now that …
For many years, we’d walked along Fethiye harbour looking across the bay towards Club & Hotel Letoonia. It’s far from an unpleasant sight; traditionally-styled ‘bungalows’ with terracotta tiled roofs built onto the hillside and surrounded by lush green foliage. In the summer months, the vibrant pink of the bougainvillea bursts into view and frames the …
There are so many beautiful places you can head to as a day out from Fethiye, without even having to drive that far. Yuvarlakçay Yeşil Vadi Restaurant is one of those places. We’ve just had friends here for their summer holiday. They suggested getting a car for the day and going for a little wander. …
Here we are again; 3rd July 2015 and another monthly Fethiye roundup that’s a few days late. Well, it’s summer, we’ve got friends out at the moment, there’s lots to do and enjoy on top of daily life. And, if you remember from our May 2015 Fethiye roundup, we told you we were off to …
