Sulu yemek does literally mean “watery food,” which doesn’t make it sound nearly as appetising as it really is. Basically sulu yemek refers to the less fancy elements of Turkish home cooking, many of which are liquid-based: beans in sauce, stews, soups, that sort of thing. Great winter food, basically.
Oddly, this picture was taken in Kemer, and although I’m very familiar with Çorbacı Mehmet, I don’t remember ever seeing that part of the sign. Clearly I block a lot of things out.
