The best Turkish food in the country. This place looks quite ordinary from the outside but the looks can be deceiving as I discovered. Everything is prepared fresh. People travel long distances to have a bite to eat a this takeaway shop. Very well priced too. It is also open on the weekends.

Parks & Nature

Great place to visit specially if you have kids with you. But the zoo caters of young and old alike and has many exotic animals. It also has little picnic areas. So pack a hamper and spend a day at the zoo.
