...... — Restaurant in Uçhisar Beldesi

I visited Yaşar Baba Restaurant during my holiday in Cappadocia, and it turned out to be more than just a meal — it was a full cultural experience.

The evening starts with a generous spread of complimentary snacks and fruits — raisins, nuts, fresh fruit slices like apples and oranges, as well as yogurt-based starters and small meze.
