INTRODUCING GASTRONOMY TOURISM IN TURKEY
A gastronomy tourist in Turkey spends equal to the return of 8 regular tourists. It is more conscious, respects culture, has a high level of income. Mediterranean Gastronomy Tourism Association’s goal is this group of tourists.
A foreigner tourist who comes for sea, sun, sand trio or cultural tourism to Turkey and knows Turkish cuisine is not a tourist of gastronomy. A person who sets out to get to know and experience local cuisine and implements a food and drink-oriented program is a gastronomy tourist. It is not like a tourist who comes with a low budget, all-inclusive system and does not leave the hotel. A gastronomy tourist spends equal to the return of 8 regular tourists. He is more conscious, respects culture, has a high level of income. For this reason, gastronomy tourism with high added value stands out as an important type of Tourism.

OVER 300 DIFFERENT TURKISH APPETIZER DISHES
Turkish cuisine, which is one of the first three cuisines in the World with China and India, Tourism has not been used long enough that, in addition to the built twelve thousand years the accumulation of culture, cuisine, enriched with migration movements not found in any other region of the Anatolian. There is an abundance of gastronomic tourism. A “fertile soil, favorable climate, the accumulation of thousands of years our seed horse, silk and spice routes kitchen needs-provides quality materials. Turkey has had trouble returning our rich culinary culture to income in Turkey tourism as we see examples in Europe. It’s like this; you have all kinds of ingredients and equipment to make the most delicious dish and sell it at an expensive price, but we can’t make that dish and serve it to the guests. However, we have a lot of resources to develop many types of tourism with high added value, especially food culture, which has thousands of years of accumulation. The only problem is ease, cheating, shallow approaches, especially our learning laziness. Our lack of learning and knowledge prevents us from evaluating the magnificent Turkish cultural treasure we have. If you don’t recognize the material you have, you don’t know how to extract a product from it, as the era of “tourist places is what you find, not what you hope for.

A CULINARY MUSEUM IN EACH CITY
It would be an important step for Turkish institutions in cities to take a hand in gastronomic tourism in Turkey and, if possible, start working for a “kitchen Museum” in a historic building, to add “imagine that kitchen supplies and recipes are collected in this museum, which has not yet fallen into the hands of junkies.

MONEY MAKING BEACH HOLIDAY TOURISM AMBITION GETS IT WRONG
Mediterranean Gastronomy Tourism Association who exemplifies countries such as France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, which practice Gastronomy Tourism very successfully, said ”without corruption, without caring about foreign cultures, they present their culture as they are. They get reservations months in advance. And our ambition to make money has caused us to make big mistakes in Turkey holiday tourism. All-inclusive Antalya hotel systems, our shores that have surrendered to concrete, wannabe situations that do not reflect our Turkish culture have caused the corruption of our tourism sector,” was said.
