Cafe in Çeşme

The 1945 İnkılap Caddesi corner where damla sakızlı dondurma was invented, a Mersin family pastane now in its third generation

Three generations of Aegean mastic worked off one Ugur Mumcu counter since 1945, sakizli dondurma, kurabiye and jams from the source

The Çeşme kumru, made by the same family since 1970

The original sakızlı muhallebi house, the recipe the rest of the country has spent twenty years trying to copy

Hacımemiş's mulberry-tree corner since 1963, the village's classical Turkish coffee bench, untouched by the specialty wave
