Left column, from top: Firin sutlac (rice pudding), less famous than baklava but arguably as, if not more delicious; Turkish style fastfood at Afacan Restaurant along Istiklal Caddesi; Yaprak dolmates (grape leaves stuffed with rice); A dondurma store in Amasya.
Central column, from top: Mackerel sandwich makes a perfect snack while strolling down Galata Bridge; Meringue at a sweets store in Anadolu Kavagi; Lokum (Turkish delights) galore!; Tokali kebab (mutton and aubergines) -- this one's a bit overdone; The fried fish that almost made me miss the Bosphorus sunset.
Right column, from top: You'll encounter ekmek (bread) at every meal; A mouthwatering meze platter at Karadeniz Pide ve Kebap Salonu; Karakoy Gulluoglu reputedly makes the best baklava in town; A traditional Turkish breakfast (sliced cucumbers and tomatoes, cheese, butter, honey, jam and plenty of ekmek).
