So Yay is me...leaving Florida to move back to...

Ohio?? Yes I am. I took a dream job and now I need to drag my poor family across the country to move back to Ohio. We've been in Florida for six years. Frankly I'm excited. I have never adapted to South Florida as a midwestern person. I love the ethnic food here, have made some amazing friends, but it has never felt like "home."

Ohio has its issues. But it has always been "home" for me. (Northeast Ohio.)

And Cleveland has some good ethnic food, too, I understand from some of my northern friends! ( from the Columbus area)

So now you'd better stop
And rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all you're losing

He left for Ohio a year before me but yes we have traveled the same path. His deal was a little better than mine....but it's all good. I used to watch him play at St. V in Akron when he was in high school. So cool.

and good luck to you and your family. Here, I found a Turkish restaurant for you in Cleveland:

Anatolia Cafe (Cleveland Heights)

Before Yashar Yildirim opened Anatolia Cafe — first at Cedar Center, then later on Lee Road — most of us knew precious little about Turkish cuisine. Now, thanks to this restaurant and the half dozen that followed in its footsteps, we're practically döner pros. Yildirim was a pioneer in more ways than one; his sparkling renovation of 5,000 square feet at the southern end of the Cedar Lee District was by no means a safe bet. But thanks to the satisfying simplicity of Turkish cuisine, with its refreshing dips, flavorful grilled meats and fish, and aromatic stews, Clevelanders became supporters of the man, the restaurant, and the cuisine in general.

Looks like some good eats at this link!
