I might only have 10-14 days, need to make the most of my time without rushing. Need cheap to moderate hotels, I only ask clean and good location. I always like to try the most exotic foods when I travel, any crazy Turkish foods?

  1. Istanbul, Cappadocia, Ephesus, Gallipoli, Ankara, in that order of priority.

    Try the hotel "Side Pension" in Istanbul.  It's reasonably priced and close to the major sights.

    Turkish food is not too unusual for someone used to many different types of food - it has many similarities to Greek and Middle Eastern food.  In little neighborhood restaurants and bazaars, there are many different types of kebabs and honey-soaked pastries, and of course the candy Turkish Delight.  "Turkish coffee" is very strong, but most Turks today prefer fruit-flavored teas.  More expensive restaurants use a lot of lamb and fresh fish, and Turkish cuisine uses a lot of yogurt, nuts, and spices (but more for flavoring - it's never really that spicy).

  3. I dont have 5, but i went to KAS, i felt it was a wonderful village, it was full of warm and wonderful people,   and then i went to a national park,  but i dont remember the name, i am sorry, but they do have a wonderful hostel system at the national parks in the mountains,   Cappadocia was OK,   but kas would be the place i would return to ,   The very laid back atmosphere was wonderful,  and there is this one food, and i hate to say it but it reminds me of a huge burrito, it was wonderful and only about 2.50 usd..   so not bad, and it had meat, tomato , lettuce, it was rolled in fresh bread, and served in a wrapper, much like a burrito.    if you can find out what it was, you Will love it..
