Trying a really special cheese made here in Izmir. This goat milk cheese is aged in goat skin, hair still intact! It’s funky but super tasty! A must try if you make it to Turkey.

Incredible wine tasting experience at this small production winery which is located in the middle of two seas with Urla and İzmir Bay in the north, Sığacık Bay in the south, at a point known as Hebiller , with a forest on one side and plains on the other. While it is usually hot and dry in the summers in this region, this area has cooler summer temperatures due to strong winds of Marika Straight, as well as rainy and mild Aegean weather in the winters. This special climate produces elegant, fresh, and complex wines that purely and clearly reflect the region where the grape is grown. We absolutely loved them and wish only that we had hit the wine road earlier in our trip so we had more opportunity to drink them!

Cappadocia is home to the pottery is home to Avanos, a quint village where pottery has been made since 2000 BC during the Hittites period. With an abundance of iron rich clay throughout the region, a special pot was designed for cooking the regions specialty Teste Kebap.
The clay pot is filled with chunks of local beef and spices, covered in parchment (today foil) and cooked in the embers of a fire until tender.
To serve the top of the pot is broken off, like sabering a bottle of Champagne!
It is reminiscent of the Tangine we had in Morocco and every bit as delicious as.
As chefs we seek out the origins of our food and do our best to honor the authentic flavors and methods used by our ancestors. You can count on our interpretation of Teste Kebap on future menus!

Another road side gem on our driving trip through Türkiye! This family run small batch producer of olive oil invited us in for a tour and tasting. This is the style we love! Smooth, flavorful, fruity with a lingering finish. Can’t wait to serve this to our guests when we get back to work in wine country.
Round 2 of tasting and reviewing @museumhotel wall wine! Don’t miss the first reel, it’s hilarious 🤣 but the red surprised us too.
