After a walk led by Mike through the village of Roveredo and the surrounding woods, where we were able to admire the ‘Denti Della Vecchia’ at different stages and enjoy the views from the Capriasca area over towards the other side of Val Colla.
We arrived back to find a delicious tea full of specialities from Turkey, such as Jimik Helva, Baklava, Helva with chocolate, Simit, stuffed apricots, amongst other things.
Luckily we had had the short walk first to justify all we ate afterwards, since no one was strong-minded enough to resist tasting all the savoury and sweet delectable items on the table.
Heartfelt thanks go to Tulay and Mike for their generous hospitality which meant a lot of work as we were quite a big group.
We were also given all sorts of things to take home with us in case we starved on the way home !
