Turkish Delight

















From Turkey (hence the name), this is a gel type of candy, covered with powdered sugar to prevent the pieces from sticking. This particular one comes in lemon, mint, and rose flavors, with rose being my favorite. I purchased this from the Euro Foods grocery store in Chattanooga. The candy is good but I'm not crazy about the added powdered sugar.

Adventure Dining: Iran

Now this looks exotic! So colorful with tapestries and raised, pillowed, platform tables. Unfortunately the video is short and does not show much.

From the Youtube poster:

Inside of the Yord (Tent) restaurant outside of Shiraz. They had live music,
fresh-baked bread, amazing regional foods, and traditionally dressed people.The
Ghashghai are a Turkish nomadic group inside Iran.
