local food: Turkish beer

  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • There a few local brands of beer in Turkey. Efes and Venus were the most popular ones when I visited.
    They are good and available almost everywhere, though not so cheap when compared to other soft drinks.

  • In the late afternoon and in the evening there are many fishermen boats, along the piers in central Istanbul, who cook and sell fresh fish.
