Had an amazing Turkish meal tonight! [View All]

[supernova]

I joined a meetup group for 30ish-40ish single folks. Originally there were 10 of us signed up, but only 1/2 of us showed up. The no shows definitely missed out.

The place was atmospheric with carpets hanging from the walls and turkish lamps hanging everywhere. Shades of maroon, purple, pale yellow and brick red.

We all shared mezzes of lamb/beef dumplings in a yogurt; a spread of tomatoes, eggplant, olives and pine nuts and a little pepper for heat; and veggie fritters served in a kind of tzatziki sauce. :9

I had Tilapia wrapped and cooked in filo and served in a tomato puree laced w/ fresh spinach, :p Washed it all down with a nice Pinot Grigio.

Oh and a kind of dark chocolate not very sweet chocolate pudding and warm fresh walnut baklava for dessert.

Man, I wish I was still there!
