Ben Türkiye'deyken çok başka Türkçe yemek denemek istiyorum.
Whilst in Turkia I want to try lots of different Turkish food.
Can you suggest some common dishes that I should try???
So far I have this list:
- İşkembe çorbası
- Lahmacun
- Menemen
Tell me more please......

If you like lahmacun, you might like 'gözleme' as well. My dictionary translates it as pancake, but the only thing they have in common is its shape and size.
Like lahmacun, it's a round, flat piece of dough (???), and you can have it filled with several things.. egg-plant, onions, meat and cheese for example. The meat version goes great with ayran.
The meat in it is not that spiced, but has some onions through it and I really liked it. You can also order for example 'patlıcanlı ve etli gözleme', so you can mix the ingredients.

Maybe for lunch you'd like to try a tosti with cheese, tomato and a spiced sausage called sucuk. You can buy these at a 'kumrucu' , which now makes me think that the tosti is probably called 'kumru'. I'm nto sure if they have it everywhere, as it is a speciality from Çeşme.

Hmm I think this is also special Çeşme speciality, but they might have it in different places as well... it is called 'damla sakızlı dondurması'.. it's ice-cream in which they used 'droplets' of some sort of sticky gom/mastic. It makes your usually soft and milky icecream sticky and it has a special taste.
I tried a damla sakızlı fıstık and one with just the taste of the mastic.. but for its taste I won't recommended it! To me it felt like I was eating toilet-refresher or something, it was perfumed in a not nice way.. Ohh i still get chills at its taste. And the structure of the icecream was not my favourite either.. But I guess it's nice to have tried such a thing they don't have in UK or Holland.

Kumpir!! That just came to my mind!!
It's a big potato that goes into a special oven with its skin.. and once it's finishede you can get it filled with all sorts of things. I think that especially gurks and olives go well with it.
Though it looks like 'just' a potato, it's really a full meal

What's that? I've seen places with 'sütlü tatlılar' everywhere, but each time the main-dish was already so much for me, that I couldn't eat more 
I will also ask Kadir what we ate somewhere.. I forgot its name, but it's served in the 'pottery' which also goes into the oven. It's with lamb and tomato etc. But I think other ingredients are also possible. it's really goooooood.

kumru translates as "dove" :-S

Yes, so I noticed.. that's strange :-S Let me google 'kumrucu şevki'. Well here it is :
pictuuuuuure
I think the kumru refers to the special bread though, because that's what the speciality of the tosti is. I really liked it for a lunch.
