The trout farm

Nestled in the hillside above the turquoise coast lies the small village of Islamlar which is well known for its trout farms. The Bodamya Tepe Restaurant was the host for our last supper .

The farm was set in a picturesque spot that was surrounded by olive groves and  looked down to the valley and sea beyond and was complete with a duck pond.

My parents and I shared a plate of meatballs to start at which point a gaggle? (A group of anyway) of ducks waddled past. If this was a sign of what was to come we were in for a culinary treat.

For the main course we all ended going for the same dish - freshwater trout cooked with tomato, onions and mushrooms and boy was it good. The fish dish came served with rice although as well as the bread basket we were given at the start of the meal and an order of chips we were so overcome with delicious food that I was glad that I was not wearing restricting trousers
