Fair play but maybe the real reason is that nobody falls foul of the drink and drive problem. However I'd be a bit chary of some of the owners and staff getting me home unscathed !

How much would Koca Calis to Kaya be Stoop - twice, once probably midnight or later. If Calis is 50TL, I'd say 200+? 65 quid or more and you haven't even ordered an Efes yet - it's going to be a bloody expensive night.

Why is it that there is so much interest in "free" pick-ups when taxis are so reasonable and convenient ? What am I missing here?
A taxi to and from The Sundial/Calis is going to cost around 80TL if you have a free pick up that's quite a discount on the cost of your meal.

Why would you, the restaurant you are going to will pick you up and drop you home for nothing :D

 Quite right - in an ideal world. What's your stance on free lunches ?

Businesses have lots of competition and sometimes have to offer that little extra to get your custom. I can honestly say that the free pick up and drop off we got from Kings Garden was excellent. The owners have more than likely priced this into their costs yet the food prices were very reasonable and the quality was excellent.

You do have to pay for your meals when you get there Scorcher. If you would rather go to another one and pay for a taxi, it's a free world not free lunches.
