However, she goes on to describe many other culinary treats and delights that can be found in Turkey. According to Svetlana: “Almost all desserts in Turkey are covered with sugary syrups…main courses are prepared using tomato paste and huge amounts of oil. And each street cafe sells something called shawarma…Turkish people call it döner, which means ‘rolling.’ Thanks to an unusual meat roasting technique, all the fat drops off of the meat.”
