Edirne is a city not only with its famous mosque, Selimiye, but also its traditional foods. Especially, the fried liver is one of the famous tastes. 


Fried Liver is one of my favorite tastes.

Selimiye in one of the biggest mosques in Turkey and The mosque, together with its külliye, was included on UNESCO's World Heritage List in 2011.

There have been always numerous restaurants where you can find fried liver in Edirne. However, one place, Aydin Tava Ciger is playing an important role nowadays for both locals and tourists. 

*Tava Ciger means Liver on the pan literally which refers frying of liver.

Since, Edirne has a critical geographical position (which is close to the border of Greece and Bulgaria) there are foreign tourists who come to visit the second capital city of Ottoman Empire, Edirne, frequently.
