What to Eat in Kalkan?

Have you still not seen Kalkan, Turkey's Santorini? So come, this week we are in front of you with the most wonderful places of Kalkan, where you can't get enough of its blue!

This town, which is very colorful with its charming bazaar, marina, cobbled streets and Greek houses, is ideal for those who want to spend a few quiet days and find peace.

Of course, it does not leave those who are looking for a little action on their holiday unanswered. Swimming at Kaputaş Beach, one of the best beaches in Turkey, remembered with its turquoise color, seeing the Ancient City of Patara closely, visiting memorable places such as Kaleköy and the aquarium beach with a Kekova boat tour are among the activities that must be done while in Kalkan.

While doing all these, "What to eat, what to drink here, which place to go?" Don't think, we thought for you.

Eat Steak they say: Aubergine

As we said at the beginning, you will often encounter landscapes in Kalkan that are unlike Santorini. It is possible that you will feel the peace to your bones with the blue, sheet-like sea, the lush green mountains around it and the endless sky. Especially Aubergine allows such a magnificent view.

The atmosphere of this place under the palm trees in the port is wonderful. Let's take those who want to spend a romantic night especially like this.

Imam baydisi, steaks and shrimp fritters are among the most popular delicacies of the menu.

Living on Instagram: Salonika 1881

We have full points for this place with its blue and white colours, appetizers that make you eat your fingers and served with enamel, and music in the background that will satisfy your soul.

Salonika 1881, one of the most popular places in Kalkan, does not have such a sea view. But they have gorgeous tables thrown on the cobblestone under the lights. And a great love of Atatürk.

Muhammara, shrimp in butter, atom, black-eyed pea salad, octopus and stuffed mussels are among the appetizers that should take their place on that table. Seabass fillet or swordfish, on the other hand, will be a sweet treat on top of these delicious appetizers.
