Skyrockets in Flight, Turkish Delights
The Chicago Turkish Festival runs Wednesday through Saturday at Daley Plaza; I am particularly excited for the Turkish eats and drinks (as well as Turkish coffee, which will have to go on ice if this weather sticks around). If kebabs, figs, and hard-nosed coffee aren't your thing, at least make a trip for the orchid-flavored goat's milk ice cream (Dondurma) from the Kahraman Maras province of southern Turkey--the festival expects to sell 1,000 gallons of it at this year's event. And of course, take in the Whirling Dervishes. Ah! Admission is free, and the festival runs 10am-6pm.
