I was thinking about some great places to eat that are now gone - bars too maybe - and I thought I'd share:
Sultans Restaurant - now Bella Mammas - did the "standard" Calis menu but everything was brilliant. Staff, meals, drinks, portions - a classic.
Otantik - became the first home of the Bus Stop. Lovely place, remember Tony Bennett being the head waiter.
Birlik (possibly) in Fethiye. PTT behind you, cross road and up side road facing you, last corner of first block on right side. Wonderful lokanta.
Birlik (definitely): On Koca Calis beach - brilliant place, especially in winter when you ate inside. If you were lucky someone would have raked the floor for you.
Susuz - on Dolphin Roundabout next to Meri Bar. Used to be low quality Indian restaurant I think
- too big to get an atmosphere but some of the food was out of this World, I used to lunch there almost daily.
Lighthouse - A revelation in it's heyday - modern dishes all cooked wonderfully and the bonus of Louise (oh ok and Phil).
Sardunya: All too brief a life - had some great meals and some equally great nights in there, with the charming Cihan in charge.
Kale Park: Ended up as a bit of a joke but at one time was the best service and food combo Fethiye had to offer - magnificent.
Harem Loved it, the food was always good, without being great but worth it just to spend your money with a great man - we loved chatting with Mehmet.
Bars:
Post Office: Ok no the "original" one but the one last on the right before the bridge. I doubt anyone who remembers it would omit it from their list of gone but not forgotten faves.
Bus Stop: The original bus stop, in it's early times was fab - we were there the day it opened.
Hopefully some memories stirred there - please add others
