Surpisingly in a country filled with citrus fruits, I've never seen a lime tree.
Limes seem to be non-existent! In fact, in Istanbul, I recently paid 18 tl per kilo of limes, up from 15 tl a few months ago, compared to only 2 tl per kilo for lemons!
So I was delighted to find not one, but three lime trees at our small, family-owned hotel in the heart of Kuşadası - the Villa Konak Otel. (More about our lovely hotel later.) This lively resort town lies on the Aegean Coast and is full of foreign and Turkish holiday makers.
It's good for a stopover to visit Ephesus and the surrounding sites in the area for a few days.
