Trabzon and last chance for Turkish
The Black Sea coast has its own cuisine, distinct from the rest of Turkey. The problem is, it hasn't been so easy to find. Have been on the look-out the last few days for Laz Boregi, a borek stuffed with confectioner's custard, instead of the traditional cheese, meat or spinach. But despite going into about every borek shop in Trabzon, couldn't find it. So instead (and in addition to a traditional borek), I had to settle for a lahmacun from Seyidoglu. Lahmacun is similar to a pide (Turkish Pizza), but with a thinner and crispier crust. Can hardly complain when you get a filling meal for ~ $0.80 served by friendly staff.
