our host Mehmet really knew their stuff and a glass of the local red was the highlight, and over easter break.

our host Fatima was brilliant and the lamb kofte was the highlight, and good as a half-day option, and tried about 8 dishes.

Is okay only. a fish taco from a tiny street stall was nice but feel rush, and Ingrid the host hard to hear sometimes. The food tour in Rome was more better.
