I agree that you are definitely not going to get any authentic food in Turkey other than Turkish food (which they do quite well in some places to be fair). However the idea that for those of us living in the UK that the only way to enjoy Indian food is to book two flights to Mumbai is quite frankly ridiculous. The Indian customers in our local curry house and Chinese in our local Chinky (bet you can't say that anymore?) don't seem to have any problems with the authenticity of their meals. In fact, the Chinese folk dining in the one we go to often outnumber the rest of us.

My brother went to a Chinese restaurant (you know, the one that doesn't like cats and has lost a lot of business as a result) last year because he has a particular hankering for "Hot and Sour" soup. I don't think he expected it to be perfect but it was clear they had no idea what constituted a hot and sour soup as it was certainly neither of them. Moral of the story, when in Rome eat as the Romans do and not what the Romans think is a decent guess at some of the stuff you like to eat at home.:D
