Adana Taste Spot: Rooms Cafe

If you ever find yourself in the Adana area of Turkey,

stop in at Room's Cafe in Çinarli Mh. 26 Sk. Öztürk Apt No 7. 

Room's has a vast international menu - from curries to tiramisu - all with excellent flavours. 

I suggest enjoying the collection of antiques inside, but sitting outside under 

the cool misters for a delightful meal.

The appetizers are incredible and are perfect for a 

tapas-style dinner or lunch.

Rooms has been open for six years and is run by Mehmet 

who is an excellent host. They are well versed in serving a foriegn clientelle 

if you are in need of easy translations of the menu.

Enjoy!

Something Old, Something New

When I was living in Savannah, Georgia and attending SCAD for my MFA I had two fabulous Thanksgivings. One introduced me to the old Georgia family-style T-Day traditions - eating outdoors, fried Turkeys, 20 miscellaneous guests and lots of Beaujolais- Nouveau (yes, by the CASE. )

The second was a "new to Georgia" experience. It included an elephant gun, my department chair, an art gallery owner, two humorous hairdressers with their Superbowl party video, the beach and too much wine again. 

Now that I'm in Texas, things are a bit more .... mellow. 

How do you SPICE UP your holidays and get out of a rut?
