We where in there too the night of the Auction and got chatting to a waiter we knew from other restaurants.  There was a very pretty girl sitting near us and most of the night she was on a computer.  The waiter introduced her as his English fiance, who had come to live with him until they married next year. ;)
We thought she was a very nice girl, but also thought she must be bored to tears, as he was working every night and day.
Do I have a suspicious mind [?]: :)
However, the food was fine a good meal, but it would not make us want to go back every night and not eat anywhere else. :o

Eating at the same restaurant every single night certainly doesn't appeal to me. But does the post actually say that I wonder. It maybe was that Catherine ended up there every night. Perhaps Catherine can clarify this for us.

I will share with you why that won't be happening. These people are asked to write a glowing review on CBF when they get home and that's exactly what they do - they join, write it, read nothing else while they are here, log off and we never ever see them here again. That is why you will not get your clarification.

Alternatively, they come back and see replies like this one, and accuse us of only allowing long standing members in the CBF clique to have opinions. For the record, in all my years of knowing Calis, including 5 living there full time, I have never found a restaurant who were as perfect on all matters like this one is portrayed to be :-\

I would just like to add some thing to reitarate what a genuine man mussy is. We have had our apartment since 2005 and over the years have used all the places mussy has happened to be working.
When we arrived in June it was quite late so we just said we would just have a stoll and drink and a snack. We ended up in mussys. After saying our hello's and a few effes we paid our bill and said goodnight.
The next day we we where on the beach mussy came across and asked us if we had paid our bill for the the night privious, as we hadn't had to much to drink I remember the bill came to 45lr and as I thought gave him a 50lr note i said yes is there a problem. He then took Carol back to the bar and showed her our bill which in deed was for 45lr. The problem was that unknown to me I had actually given him a 50 euro note.He then proceeded to give me a lecture on how I should be more careful with my money and handed us back the change.
I don't think I would have got my change back in many places so that is why we will always support mussy in were ever he is working.
Can't wait for Sept.
Ian Carol.

Back to the food ( a favourite subject of mine) they do an excellent english breakfast, that starts the day just right.  Which should always be a good reason to recommend a place!!

Not sure what a review of a restaurant has really got to do with Cagdas and Sarah?! Sarah is indeed a lovely girl, and I'm puzzled as to what there is to be suspicious of about her sitting on a laptop in the restaurant?  Cagdas is working hard to save up for their wedding, Sarah is enjoying her time in Turkey and rather than sitting on her own in an apartment chooses to sit in the restaurant, having a chat with whoever she wants to. 6 years ago I was in exactly the same situation and spent hours sitting in the same restaurant waiting for my (now hubby) to finish work. I have great memories of those nights as I met and talked to so many lovely people, many of whom are still friends today, on the quiet nights I also read some great books (laptops in bars were a rarer sight then!)

Just because you are on your own it doesn't mean you are bored to tears, or some kind of friendless saddo with only a laptop for company! Not everyone goes to Calis for the same experiences, it takes all sorts after all :P
