Thank you! Somehow this feels more relaxed than prevıous workıng conferences, probably because of the break from manual labour.

I tried to have a taste of as many desserts and drinks as I could, including ashure, kazandibi, revani, baklava, and ayran. Although was slightly disappointed not to find two desserts Paul Theroux mentioned in The Great Railway Bazaar - the intriguing-sounding Kadin Bobegi (Lady's Navel) and Kadin Badu (Lady's Thigh).

I preferred the texture of baklava and revani, although kazandibi tasted the best :D

He mentioned that the thigh was meaty and the navel sweet, but both sound like pastries, idk.
