Hande Bozdoğan - training tomorrow’s top chefs
ISTANBUL - Turkish cuisine is one of the richest cuisines in the world. It owes this to the large geography of the Ottoman Empire and the different ethnic identities within it. Also, we live in a very lucky climate with four seasons and many delicious ingredients. Given all of this, there is so much to do and to improve.
Armenians voice dismay to Obama

Spain making its amends after 500 years

The world must come to terms with its history
U.S. President Barack Obama pleased few with his "Meds Yeghern" effort at Solomonic politics on Friday. A sense of disappointment is shared here at the Daily News. This is not a topic on which we enjoy a consensus among our editors; opinions and views are diverse. There are, however, various common threads in our reaction. Among them:
Dodging riots and missiles to write warmly of Turkey
ISTANBUL - American goalkeeper Brad Friedel remembers his 16 months in Istanbul for the culture, the people, the çayÉ and a revolution of sorts. He calls Turkey’s fans the most passionate he has seen. ’The country is not there to adapt to you,’ says the former Galatasaray player who was pelted with coins and missiles. ’You are there to adapt to the country’
Gift to America sign of friendship
ISTANBUL - Among many international contributions to the Washington Monument, a gilded marble tablet from Sultan Abdülmecid was placed on the Washington Monument in 1855, a gift referenced by the US president during his address in Parliament on Monday. An inscription on it says ’So as to strengthen the friendship between the two countries’.
Turkey-Armenia peace focus of Barack Obama
ANKARA - US President Barack Obama adopts a tactful approach while dealing with the sensitive matter of the events that occurred around 1915 when many people died. ’My views are on the record, and I have not changed those views. What I have been very encouraged by is news that under President Gül's leadership you are seeing a series of negotiations, a process in place between Armenia and Turkey to resolve a host of issues,’ he says.
’We will listen carefully and seek common ground’
ANKARA - US President Barack Obama speaks in Turkish Parliament on his last stop on his first European tour in office. The symbolism is grand as Obama praises Turkey’s history and the role it can play today as he expresses compassion for Muslim people.
The failure of cannonballs and the father of canon law
This weekend, as Turkey prepares to host U.S. President Barack Obama, I find myself thinking about cannonballs and canon law. This is a moment when we should all be focused on U.S.-Turkish ties. I have been. And my mind consistently returns to these two subjects, which, I believe, can tell something about this critical relationship Ğ or, really, about the lack of it.
Turkey’s Greeks take to stage: ’A Thorn in My Bed’
ISTANBUL -The Rum minority of Istanbul has a very active cultural group, the Feriköy Art and Culture Lovers Association that was officially established in 1989. Before that, it was an amateur theatrical group that produced many plays. There are a number of theories about the Rum community’s Bakla Horani, meaning ’I ate bakla,’ festival in Istanbul, with some believing that it only began in the 1830s although others suggest it dates back to the rather sybaritic rites of ancient Greek city-states and Rome
Turkey trip presents dilemma for Obama
WASHINGTON - Turkey has become so pivotal to U.S. goals in Iraq, Afghanistan and the Middle East that Barack Obama included it on his first overseas tour as president. But relations between the countries could be at risk unless Obama is willing to break a campaign promise.
