Balıkesir manti has a very different flavor than the common Turkish manti because traditional Turkish manti is prepared with ground beef. In contrast, Balıkesir manti is prepared with boiled chickpeas and chicken breast. If you like Turkish cuisine, add this unique flavor to your what to eat in Balıkesir list.
Höşmerim, the most famous member of Balıkesir cuisine, is a kind of dessert made of cheese. Although traditionally prepared with fine cheese and semolina, today, höşmerim is made in many different flavors, such as cocoa and strawberry. We strongly recommend you try this famous dessert of Turkish cuisine on your trip to Balıkesir.
The appetizers and dishes made from the local olive oil of Balıkesir, which has extensive olive groves, are very famous in Aegean cuisine. We recommend visiting one of the beach restaurants in the romantic streets of Cunda Island and trying Balıkesir's renowned olive oil appetizers.
