You'll be getting around 6tl to the £ so the increases won't particularly affect you at all.

I doubt any business that actually wants to stay in business is "reprinting" it's menu prices.

Plus 15.5 % on some alcohols

This is the Special Consumption Tax that gets increased every six months.  Given the wee fellas intense hatred of cigarettes and alcohol, and now that he is the all powerful supreme leader, expect higher bumps for both every six months.

Yes, you're right Nichola but for the "man in the street", who doesn't have access to hard currencies, things are getting harder.

Just got back from Calis and I was astonished that prices in restaurants remain so cheap.  A three course meal for two, with drinks at the Livadi Steak Housewas 158 lira. A lovely meal for three at Mosaik was 116 lira.  Oh for infore Dalaman Airport.  Lavazze Coffee on the first floor price everything in Turkish Lira. Cappuccino with free cake was 30 Lira and water is 5 lira.  Very reasonable and great service.

We know of one restaurant that reprinted its menu while we were there three weeks back, and fairly sure these would not have been the only ones.

Name it? Or would you rather not do that (which I could understand)?

The new kebab restaurant on Baris Manco has new price tickets on top of old. So obvious. Holiday prices?

A lot of the prices are written in pencil or a wipe pen in the menus , so when they change the prices you won't even notice.
