The Cappadocia table — what to order and where the locals point.
Testi kebab
Meat sealed in a clay pot, cracked open flaming at your table — Cappadocia's signature theater.
Manti
Tiny dumplings under garlic yogurt — Kayseri next door claims the original.
Cappadocian wine
Volcanic-soil vines since Hittite times — taste Emir and Kalecik Karası in Ürgüp.
Pottery kebab & apricots
Dried fruit, pekmez and village breakfasts on cave terraces.
Dondurma
The stretchy ice cream — buffalo milk and orchid root, served with a show.
