Hakan, me, and Mümtaz by mattkrause1969

My new friends in Maraş, Hakan and Mümtaz, took me out for brunch at Mado.

I’ve been to some pretty impressive buffets in my life, but never before have I seen as much food, offered in as many varieties, in one room before. I practically ate myself sick.

A few kilometers from the restaurant, in sight of our table, was a Syrian refugee camp.
