Rustic cooking courses at

CaravanTurkey  Cultural Center

  

Learn how to cook Turkish food the traditional way! 

​

Turkish food is delicious. Meals include fresh, organic vegetables or salads, soups, fruit, meats, fish, breads and sweets. Seasonal ingredients are used to create a variety of healthy traditional dishes. Alfresco barbeques are very popular and suit the Turkish love of feasting outdoors.

 

Learn this unique cuisine from an accomplished local cook, with all lessons translated in English in a friendly, homely and creative atmosphere.

 

Courses run all year round for individuals and small groups. We will confirm your reservation as soon as you inform us the dates you wish to arrive at our center .

Gokpinar is an old Yörük village on the Aegean Coast of Turkey, that feels a world away from the tourist trail. Our cultural center is set on a hilltop overlooking the village and the mountains' pine forests. It is a traditional Turkish village home built from local stone and timbers with wide decks and a tiled terrace (with barbecue and outdoor pizza oven), which all make wonderful locations to enjoy your meals. We are only 10 minutes' drive to the beach and 40 minutes from Bodrum.
