The <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/turkish-dinner-restaurant-levante\/\">\u00e0 la carte restaurant Levante<\/a> already won me over with Turkish dishes for dinner, so today I&#8217;d like to have a breakfast that&#8217;s typical for the country. Of course you&#8217;ll find some of the delicacies I talk about at the normal breakfast buffet too, buuuuut:<br \/>\nNowhere else can you get such a grandiose view, such a unique atmosphere, and such classic treats served for breakfast as you can at the village breakfast. Believe me, it&#8217;s worth it!<\/p>\n<p>My tip: Register for the village breakfast well in advance through the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/tui-blue-app\/\">BLUE App<\/a> or with one of the hotel&#8217;s BLUE Guides. The number of participants is limited, but the quiet, cordial ambience is what makes the breakfast special. This is the only way to guarantee that every breakfast guest will also receive their &#8220;all-round carefree package&#8221;.<br \/>\nSo if you&#8217;d like to have breakfast with a beautiful view of the beach and the hotel area, and you want to be served at the table instead of the buffet, then this is the place for you.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24721\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24721\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24719 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht.jpg\" alt=\"Village Breakfast Sea View Turkish specialties\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht-570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Aussicht-240x240.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24721\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The beautiful view of the beach and the sea at the Turkish village breakfast<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Early_Bird_%E2%80%93_Breakfast_at_Summer_Morning_Temperatures\"><\/span>The Early Bird &#8211; Breakfast at Summer Morning Temperatures<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The village breakfast starts early. From 7:00 am to 10:00 am, you can feast and enjoy. Shortly after seven, I leave my room and stroll through the still quiet and deserted hotel complex in the direction of Sunset View. No wonder, I&#8217;ve never been up so early while on holiday as I am today. But don&#8217;t worry; those who&#8217;d like to sleep longer, of course, can come a bit later &#8211; that&#8217;s up to you.<\/p>\n<p>The Sunset View at the TUI BLUE Sarigerme Park is located on a hillside overlooking the sea and the whole complex. Once at the top, I sit down at a table. Immediately, a friendly and radiant employee comes up to me and brings me a glass of orange juice. Unasked &#8211; wonderful! I cast my gaze to the sea, take in the view, breathe in the summer morning air, and take a sip of freshly squeezed juice. It&#8217;s wonderful, a moment to remember when I&#8217;m back in the office next week.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"So_Many_Goodies_at_the_Turkish_Village_Breakfast\"><\/span>So Many Goodies at the Turkish Village Breakfast<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Slowly, a few other guests come in as well. The space of the gallery is small and intimate. In total, there&#8217;s space for around 20 guests here. Just a village breakfast as the name suggests. \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\nHere comes the food already &#8211; at least a part of it. Beautifully arranged small dishes with typical Turkish delicacies are placed in the middle of the table. There&#8217;s also a bread basket with wholegrain rolls, sweet puff pastries, Turkish bread baked with cheese, and a traditional sesame ring, the simit. &#8220;Would you like a cup of Turkish coffee?&#8221; asks the thoughtful staff member. But of course.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24749\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24749\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24747 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot-.jpg\" alt=\"Simit rolls\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot-.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot--150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot--300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot--570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot--500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot--700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Brot--240x240.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24749\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tasty bakery products of the Turkish cuisine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So, here we go: I grab the simit ring and look at the Turkish plate with its many specialties.<br \/>\nIn addition to ham, cheese, olives, butter, a spicy tomato paste, sheep cheese, rocket, parsley, tomatoes, and slices of cucumber, melon, sweet orange peel, and nuts, there&#8217;s also kaymak, the Turkish butter.<br \/>\nI break off a piece of simit and coat it with the sheep&#8217;s cheese and a bit of parsley: deliiiicious.<\/p>\n<p>Now I notice the slightly darker ham. I ask the waiter what it is. &#8220;This is past\u0131rma, a spicy beef jerky,&#8221; he says. &#8220;And here we have re\u00e7el \u00e7e\u015fitleri, different jam varieties.

I opt for a fried egg. Incidentally, you can also get that with sucuk, the Turkish garlic sausage. The fried egg is served in a small pan. In addition, I also get g\u00f6zeleme, a thin flatbread from yufka dough, which is freshly prepared by a lady in the background. The warm bread literally melts in my mouth.

The server goes around every time fresh g\u00f6zeleme is ready and asks every single guest if they want to try it. G\u00f6zeleme can be filled with very different ingredients. Whether with spinach, potatoes, or just plain, it all tastes way too good to stop! Although I&#8217;m already quite full, I can&#8217;t miss out on menemen. Menemen is a kind of omelette that can be prepared according to my wishes with fresh ingredients such as tomatoes, cheese, or sucuk. Again in a small pan, I get served the fresh omelette.
