Yesss

I was there years ago
1st time in 1960 when my brother was there on his military service then for business purposes years after.

Eskisehir is an industrially developped town and well known in the past by its stoves when there were not so many central heatings in Turkey and the natural gas system and these days by Eti Biscuits...

KABALAK....
We saw on the street many people selling a drinK named KABALAK

then also saw same sign in the hotel but someone has put it near the fruits juices so we drunk a lot of these juices during the breakfast thnking that there was an exotic fruit named KABALAK which we did now see in our lives...

Months after we learned that this was just a local famous spring water and that was all..

So when you see a sign on the street check it carefully and dont cheat yourself as it happened to us...

Anyway hello from here to all Eskisehir resident who still enjoy this water which we dont have here in Istanbul..By the way here we drink at home Kristal SU even if Istanbul water Administration announces that tap water is mcuh healtier then some spring waters. I am sure they are right too.

few words for foreigners

SU= WATER

WATER=LIFE

LIFE=WHAT YOU ENJOY OR SUFFER
