My first attempt at making Chicken Pot Pie.

Elma potatoes, doner and rice, salad of carrots, broccoli, don't forget the ayran and mushroom soup.

Had this for dinner after the Besiktas match. Similar concept to another chain called Longplate, this one is called err something in Italian, Focaccia? Prob not. This was the Chicken in Soy Sauce served with pasta and a side salad.

Stuffed zuchini and yoghurt, fried macaroni, salad, tomato soup and a very sweet "churros"-like dessert. 

School lunch - Ezogelin soup, some kind of meatloaf and mashed potatoes, salad, macaroni, rice pudding.

Latte in Kadikoy that's worth your liras cos it comes with a little pannacotta, a cookie and a glass of water ;) Forgot the name of the restaurant though.

When the xmas season is over, this picture and design looks sad. Like a day we cannot recapture and re-live again cos it's gone... gone... gone... Although I am fervently against starbucks, when someone else buys me the coffee, I make an exception ;) Toffee nut latte, see you next year, I hope.

sourish soup, plain rice (though cooked with oil), couscous salad, potato and carrots soupish side dish, beans with bits of meat.

Pasta salad with julienned carrots, spaghetti in tomato sauce, potato puree with oven-roasted chicken breast and sourish yoghurt soup.

Potato borek, tomato soup, spinach with yoghurt, couscous salad, turkish sweet dessert (cookie-like things soaked in syrup). YUM.

Roti John - homemade Malay dish. Egg with meat pan friend onto a sliced-open baguette

Chocolate cake with more banana slices (I got nothing else at home to decorate the cake with)

Today's school lunch: Roasted chicken thigh and roasted potato, spring soup (yayla), lettuce and julienne carrot salad topped with yoghurt, wholemeal bun.
