Epicopia

October 1 – 16, 2010
Hosted by acclaimed chef and author, Aliza Green

Turkey straddles East and West culturally, historically and literally. It's the only country to sit on two continents, Europe and Asia. The whole country is like an open-air museum with remains of successive empires and cultural movements on display at every turn. Turkey is a modern, secular country with an old soul, the meeting place not only of East and West but of past and future as well.

The surest way to capture the essence of a country's culture is through its cuisine. Turkey, like no other country, is the crossroads of many cuisines. Turkish cuisine features lamb, eggplant, and pilafs. Vegetables are often stuffed with aromatic meat preparations, and desserts usually combine fruits, nuts, and pastry.
