Recent post said one at Oykun was good. At the other end of the prom Letoon do one (changed to Tuesday nights I think) but don't know how good it is.

Cafe Pazar to an infrequent traditional folk dancers/drumers evening. The next one is on Monday at 21:30.

If you find a Turkish night check out what it entails first.  The first one we booked looked, on the surface really looked good with barbeque food and a Belly Dancer.  When the Belly Dancer arrived we heard remarks from men about the size of her bust, and we thought well, she does have a big bust, but so what. When we had  the food she came on and danced around all the men shaking her assests in their faces, then  she proceded to get a group of  them up on the dance floor and then made them take off  their shirts and dance with her.  We have since seen this happen at some other establishments in Calis since then, and it seems to be the norm for a Belly Dancing Evening.  So if you want this sort of night and the men in our group are up for it that's great, no problem you wlll have a wonderful time.  If you want a traditional Turkish dancing evening, where the audience is not part of the entertainment, I am not sure where you will see one.[?]

No Belly Dancers at the Cafe Pazar :D There is a bit of knife throwing and fire eating though ;)

We don't stay in Calis so could go up the hill if necessary.  Thanks for all the tips and information  :)
