Spent most of the last 16 hours searching futilely for the legendary Tokat kebob. Featuring lamb and aubergine skewered together and broiled vertically, on a separate skewer tomatoes and peppers grilled in the same fashion. Juices intermingling. Then everything put on plate with a fist of garlic. Legendary in the turkish submarine community. Never found it.
Had a great day in Tokat. Pleasantly assaulted by a horde of schoolkids trying out their english, jill hung out with the saddlemaker, the yokemaker, the potmaker and the barber. And we spent no money and took great pics. Ben has figured out that he likes some versions of kofta (small lamburgers). I am trying to wean myself off baklava. At the end of Suttree by Cormac McCarthy. The dude can turn a phrase. Museum at Ankara tomorrow.
