Title: Turkish Delight Factory.
Post by: Jacqui Harvey on June 13, 2012, 17:35:40 PM
Just been into this place this afternoon.  Must admit we have been passed it lots of times and never called in before.  Lovely big shop where you can watch through the glass windows as they making the Turkish Delight.  They also have an amazing selection to choose from which is lovely and fresh and you can try as much as you like.   They also sell, souvenirs, spices, jewellery etc.,  It's a big department store.  We thought the souvenirs and spices where not expensive.  The lady who served us spoke very good English and explained a lot of the food stufs in the chlll cabinet.  We will definitely be back and can recommend this place for a visit.  It's near the State Hospital coming out of Calis and it's just passed the B.P. Garage on the right hand side.  They have a big car park and the dolmus also runs passed there going into Fethiye.  website http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=tr&u=http://www.servetsekerleme.com/contatcus.aspx&ei=O7_YT_PTNZHEswbDi7GoDw&sa=X&oi=translate&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CGUQ7gEwAA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dservet%2Bsekeleme%2Bfethiye%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26tbo%3Dd

I believe the lady,maybe partner, is German,we were in the shop in April and she is obviously very much into their products,very happy to discuss what and how everything is made.
She will also blend different  types and strengths of curries,marinades and herb mixes to order,

this place is our second home.   The best nougat in the world !!  mulberry mmmmmmm      Have loved this place for years (used to be opposite the Otogar).  The family that own it are lovely and very often force feed us their new recipes to trial.    They also have a nice range of lemon cologne and rose water, which we use by the bottle full in the heat of the summer.   

if you haven't tried it, pop in.  you can eat as much as you like on the way around the shop and they don't even weigh you on the way out !!!

Miriam is Turkish, but I think she grew up in Germany.  Her brother, Ali is the one with the moustache.  Thay are such lovely people and I always introduce friends to them, it is THE best Turkish delight/spice shop in the Paspatur, and I love looking round the factory shop too.

Another great bonus is that you can by the turkish delight by weight if you want - saves all that faffing about with fancy packaging when its for yourself.

 Tee Tee, If you read my first posting it gives directings to this place.
Incidentally, they also sell an aphrodisiaque (spelling on bottle) for men and women which says if you take this you will make love 5 times per night.  My husband decided to buy one to give to a friend of his as a joke.  He said to the woman "This is for a friend" she said to him "They all say that".

Sorry, the Turkish Delight factory and the shop in the Paspatur are a family business,  Miriam and Ali are at the shop in the Paspatur.  I can't see how I can edit my original post :(  Sorry for any confusion.

JH - if the aphrodisiac is a green liquid in a small jar, it does not work despite assurances that it was guaranteed so to do :(.

Mind you perhaps I should have taken it orally rather than rub it in  ;).

Oh and whatever you do don't spill it. It sticks to everthing like nothing on earth.

Jacque I did read the directions but an unsure where the state hospital is. Am I guessing right that it is the one as you head towards Calis from the Dalaman road. As for the other point I do suffer from occasional headaches!!
