MEALS ON BOARD
Three meals per day are prepared by our chefs who have a vast knowledge of Turkish cuisine. Their creations are simple and delicious, using the freshest ingredients Turkey has to offer. All meals are healthy and nutritious.
The Turkish breakfast consists of the beautiful white Turkish bread, slices of tomatoes and cucumbers, fresh seasonal fruit (water/honey melon or oranges), black or green olives, white cheese, yellow cheese, jam or honey, eggs, butter, fresh Turkish tea and coffee.
Muesli or cornflakes may be taken on board by the passengers.
Five o'clock tea and coffee is served with biscuits and/or cakes.
Side dishes are rice, pasta or couscous. Also plenty of salads or yoghurt.
For dinner you will have again a main course, a side dish, a salad, locally grown vegetables and also fresh fruit or dessert.
We serve fish (barbecued or fried) with mixed green season salad. Other evenings the main dish will be chicken (oven roasted or in a stew), minced meat or red meat.
Fish - if not caught by the guests and the crew themselves - are bought from local fishermen.
Rice or pasta is served, also fresh salads and different Turkish dishes prepared with fresh vegetables.
Fruit is served after dinner.
