Bringing Kalkan Home

I was trying to come up with some clever way to introduce this post, but after sitting here for a while, drooling over the pictures that I was trying to decide between, I decided just to post the pictures and go from there.

And because you can't really see everything that's going on there, here's another one:

And just in case you still can't tell, that is a waffle.  Covered in a (white) chocolate spread.  And bananas.  And caramel ice cream and chocolate chip ice cream.  And caramel sauce.  In a word, delicious.  In more words, I want one right now.


However, since I'm currently not in Kalkan, I am not able to wander over to Fener Cafe (AKA The Lighthouse Cafe, located on the harbour-front - you'll recognize it by the large green lighthouse) where the smell of baking waffles wafts over diners and passers-by, enticing them to order one.  So, instead, I'll bring a little of Kalkan to me with....


A waffle iron!  Here are a few options I've been looking into:
This one looks like it will do the job...
But, oh how much do I want this one.

Fener Cafe, by the way, serves way more than waffles - more to come on that later...
