Life's A Beach
September 07, 2009

Today we feel the call of Iztuzu beach again. 11TL return for two on the dolmus and 6TL for 2 sunbeds and an umbrella for the day, with cold Efes and very hot pancakes on hand. What’s not to like?

The pancakes are made in an incredibly hot hut by one woman sitting on the floor rolling out wafer thin bits of pastry [these aren’t Dutch pancakes] and filling them with mince, cheese, spinach or sweet fillings. The filled pancakes are folded and slapped on a hot griddle. The place would never get past any sort of Health and Safety in this country but the resulting pancakes are delicious.

More reading on the sunbeds and I am almost two books down out of my over ambitious supply of seven. More about books later. Suffice to say, I didn’t really need to buy two more at Gatwick on the way out here!

Tonight we feel we should pop into Ali Baba’s and see if we can fathom out which of them is our rep Alison’s husband. We don’t. But, once again, we are prevented from over-ordering from a chilled cabinet. Mainly because any sort of starter isn’t going to leave any room for the massive “Chateau Briande” that we are talked into having. And are we glad that we are. Never have we had a better piece of steak, even if it was enormous. We are both very pleasantly surprised. A couple of free Turkish coffee’s and liqueurs later we stagger back home to bed. Too full to sleep... So we manage to polish off the bottle of Raki that we had snuck back to our room earlier.
