    Berk Balık

    Posted by TimmyD 16 February 2007

    This is an excellent restaurant at the very eastern end of the main harbourfront street in Bodrum. Go past all the crappy "Irish" pubs. It's a little restaurant at the end, filled with locals and the best seafood I've ever had. Friendly service. We ate there both nights we were in Bodrum.

    Kapadokya Balloons

    Posted by TimmyD 16 February 2007

    There are many companies that do ballooning in Cappadocia. These guys are a bit more expensive, but they have one of the longest and safest records. Their flights are longer than most others. Excellent time.

    The Queen Ada Hotel

    Posted by TimmyD 16 February 2007

    This resort is actually in Torba, a short dolmus ride away from Bodrum. It was modern, full-service, pleasant, but smaller and much quieter and nicer than all the hyper-resorts.

    Like many European cities, you must validate your travel ticket in a punch machine when you get on public transport, like buses. Don’t forget to do this when you've just arrived. Transit police nab tourists who haven't done so for big fines. We were still struggling to find a place for our bags on the crowded bus and hadn't yet spotted the validation machine, when they got us for €25 each.

    Károlyi Étterem Kávéház

    Posted by TimmyD 11 February 2006

    Excellent restaurant with traditional Hungarian dishes, decent prices, good service, and a great wine list. It's in the courtyard of the restored Károly Mansion, and has nice outdoor seating. When I was there, there was a play being performed next door, so we got free dinner theatre as a bonus. It has vegetarian choices as well.
