Turkish food

We also went for some food afterwards, and the first restaurant we found was a Turkish place. We may have been unfair to it by eating vegetarian, and probably grilled lamb is their best thing, but they did advertise vegetarian menus . . . .

Thinking about it now, what it reminded me of, was if you go into Sainsburys and buy a bunch of things in pots. They gave us hummus, couscous, aubergine salad, yogurt with mint, broad beans in a creamy dressing, all with bread. . . . it was just exactly like taking one of everything from the cold salad display in Sainsburys.
I had "shredded wheat" for pudding. And indeed, that is exactly what it was like. Shredded wheat with honey and burnt butter on it. Quite nice.
