Sounds good  serously though I think I have heard of it. The one that makes you feel sick if you smoke?

I think that's a drug that was developed to treat alcoholism (actually I think it was developed to treat food-poisoning and they then discovered that it makes you feel very ill if you drink whilst taking it. I also discovered that)
I found a web-site on the smoking one.

| Zyban is a drug marketed by Glaxo-Wellcome and has been used, very successfully, to treat nicotine addiction directly. In this case it is different to the way other anti-smoking agents work, such as nicotine gum and patches, since these simply supply an alternative source of nicotine other than cigarettes. Zyban works at the neurological level, reducing the craving for nicotine in any form. |
And yes very sorry to hijack the thread Tekirdag.
To get it back on topic, I like any Turkish food which has olive oil in it. |

best pide - has to be Karadeniz Pidecisi on the corner of Hatboyu Caddesi in Bakirkoy. The small doner kiosk at the entrance to the Yesil is pretty good for a quick snack.
Had Koc Yumurtasi once, very early on in my career in Turkey. Got a severe surprise when I realised they were not, ahem, eggs in the conventional sense. 
One of the best meals I ever had was Sac Tava one cold night in Goreme - garlic, chillis, finely diced lamb and tomatoes with rice - yum!
I always enjoyed a meal in Geyik in B'Koy. |
