farmers' market

We will try to present you from time to time how our life did change (in good or bad) since we moved to Turkey...
As we're French, the first topic has to be about food...

We rediscovered the joy of the farmer's market.
In Turkey, people do eat a lot of vegetables especially a sstarters (around 250 kg/year/person, 3 times more than Americans).
Antalya is in the heart of the vegetable production and the farmer's market is wonderful. Vegetables and fruits are very fresh. It's always a pleasure to wander around and pick our fruits/vegetables for the week.
For example, now, we only drink orange juice freshly squeezed every morning...
We also enjoy some traditionnal food. Cheese section here.
And borek there (kind of a very thin tortilla, pate filo). Very traditional and very good.
We just made some yesterday with ground beef, patatos and eggs.

  1. Quelle joie d'avoir des nouvelles et des photos... je clikais désespérément sur votre blog.... et rien! Jolie petite frimousse de Louis, regard attendrissant de Baptiste sur son petit frère... et quel marché! Nous n'avons malheureusement pas l'équivalent à Nouzilly! On pense très souvent à vous et on vous embrasse comme nous vous aimons! MH
