Okay... what's in the kitchen for New Year? In the Philippines we have two New Years. One on January and the other is on February usually among Chinese communities.

No, Turkey is predominently a muslim country and therefore doesn't celebrate Christmas, although those like myself who were born and brought up in London we still have a traditional roast turkey lunch and exchange gifts.

In Turkey the New Year is celebrated and that is when they may have parties and exchange their gifts.
