“My Turkish Tastes trip is an enchanted journey into the heart of culinary richness and cultural warmth. Meeting the Turkish chefs was a highlight. The passion for their craft and everyone’s genuine hospitality created an unforgettable experience. Unveiling the hidden secrets of Turkish traditions in food and agriculture was a revelation, from the flourishing fig and olive trees to the intricate spice facilities.

​

The trip not only tantalized the taste buds but also shed light on a culinary heritage that deserves global recognition. The intricate connection between the land and the dishes, woven into the fabric of Turkish culture, showcased a culinary tapestry that beckons to be shared with the world.”
