I have difficulty eating abroad as the heat and size of portions make my stomach clam up.  This is so frustrating as the food and spices in Turkey are always so good.
However for some reason I never struggle in the morning and would agree the bread must be the best I have tasted.  Also the eggs  taste so different and Eggy!!  So for me it would have to be the Turkish breakfast.
The advantage to this is, I usually lose weight on holiday..5 pound in ten days!!!

Me too Heather - and I loved the fact that you could buy double yolkers there easily too. It must be the eggyness of the eggs that cause my various attempts at Menemen to fall short.

And cucumber - I remember on visits to the UK when we lived in Turkey, having meals served with salad and the cucumber tasted of absolutely nothing. A bit like the tomatoes. It took months for me to like UK cucumber again when we moved back.

"ORANGES". They are so cheap on the market. I buy about 20 and squeeze 2 or 3 every morning into a glass, chill in freezer for 10 mins and drink. "Delicious"

Any cooked vegetable dish, particularly Fasuliya or iman bay aldi. There are some sensational others cooked and proferred  by our neighbours . No idea what's in them but wow.
Also agree about the cucumber. Our third visit to Turkey saw us eating bowls of chopped cucumber along with Efes as an alternative to nuts. We presumed the bar could not afford nuts but now love cucumber.

Just goes to show how lucky we are in the uk to have all these intense farming methods and lovely chemicals - tasteless rubbish
