The most famous dish of the region and the straits is “sardine kebab”, which is grilled over charcoal fire right from the sea and cleaned while eating.

“Scallop pilaf” made with scallops, toric and bonito lakerda, fish soup made from white-fleshed fish such as red snapper, large mullet, scorpion fish (squidfish, scorpionfish), haddock, carpenter or separately, are famous. Gallipoli port and Çanakkale are full of many tourist restaurants and shabby fish restaurants that serve seafood. Salted fish and canned sardine fish are among the things you can buy for your relatives.

While hotel restaurants can be preferred for meals in Çanakkale, many restaurants with views and terraces along the coast serve seafood, grills and appetizers.

One of them, Yalova Restaurant, has experienced (white-haired, old, pot-bellied) service staff, who pay attention to the service timing, and offers delicious food with an appetite and the pleasure of eating peacefully. Yalova restaurant, which has a parking lot next to it, offers a breezy terrace on the third floor, in addition to the two floors with indoor halls. Fried red mullet beans, fried calamari with dill trator, sea and field black-eyed peas served with Çanakkale tomato puree, eggplant. Salad, seasonal salad orders and a cold drink to slow down your eating speed will allow you to have an unforgettable evening in the clean air entering the Bosphorus from the Aegean.

I would like to add a final note on the subject of food. Sometimes there are moments when you cannot finish the unfinished breath while breathing, but you do not experience this in Çanakkale. Fresh air circulation allows you to breathe easily and calms you down.

While dining outdoors, take a deep breath after every bite and sip, and inhale the cool air of the summer night to your heart’s content. This special air digester that you won’t find anywhere else, and it’s free. If you choose the terrace of Yalova Restaurant, ladies may get cold later in the night. Restaurant staff bring shawls, but you can take a light, thin sweater with you.

After the meal, the delicious, strong tea served in thimble-sized glasses from the Navy Tea Garden on the beach is waiting for you.

For those who will continue their journey towards Izmir, there are lahmacun and pita varieties at the cafe with a parking lot at the highest point on the road after Güzelyalı. This place has a unique panorama from which you can watch the entire Bosphorus.

The tomato, identified with the name of Çanakkale, with its thin skin, quite large and delicious taste, is also considered very popular.
