Cappadocia is still pretty cheap once you get away from the backpacker and tourist hangouts of Goreme and �rg�p. However, I negotiated a permanent 7 million/night deal with a pansyon owner there last year. For two years I've been staying at his place, always paying the same rate because he knows I come back. Breakfast included. Places like Avanos and Mustafa Pasa and other little towns nearby are affordable, quite lovely, historic, and close to the eclectic nightlife of �rg�p and G�reme.
As for cheap food, it's pretty easy to eat cheaply here, though prices have risen significantly in the past few years. Some have doubled. However, with a few side salads, colas, and a shared 1.5 portion of main dish, bread, rice, etc, you can easily feed 2 people very well for about 8 million. And that's in a NICE, semi-trendy place, not a hole in the wall lokanta. On the street you can get a d�ner and ayran for 500-750 000 tl. There are 3 course deals for 2-4 million. |

Hey, dmb, does your $30 include lodging, too? Or is that just for food and entertainment? |
