Another treat your find only in the blessed month of Ramadan here in Turkey is this delightful bread called 'Ramazan pidesi' and I still remember that first-ever bite of Ramazan pide when I moved here. Now, of course, I make my own too but It's an ongoing challenge to replicate that first taste.
If you invite me to your traditional village wedding, it's likely that although I am here to wish you well in your new communion and I want to celebrate your joyful happiness, my real objective is making a beeline for the food service.
