Title: Turkish groceries in the UK
Post by: JohnF on October 01, 2015, 11:01:07 AM
Came across this site recently, never used them myself so if anyone does, feel free to post a review.

Lots of "goodies" for anyone in the UK missing their favourites from Turkey.

There are 30+ pages of Turkish goods in the grocery section on Amazon.co.uk . Once you get through the first half dozen or so pages of Turkish Delight and flavoured 'teas' there are some interesting items with free delivery throughout the UK.

If you're within the M25 there are a dozen branches of the Turkish Food Centre. http://www.tfcsupermarkets.com/branches.html

Asda are getting more and more Turkish food in store, the only problem here in the UK Ayran cost a fortune to buy and also to make.  We also have International foods in Portswood, great shop, you miss something they have it, and no inflated prices.  They ship orders too.  unfortunately  not  a great website.

Possibly as expensive as British goods are, when sent to Turkey.

 A pot of natural yoghurt. A pint of milk. A pinch of salt. A quick whizz in a blender. How bloody expensive is that ?  ;)

The Village Market on Prescot Rd Liverpool has a large range of Turkish goods (a bit on the expensive side), but they do sell ekmek and also gozleme (cheese  or mushroom) all cooked on the premises.
