Anyone know where I could get Turkish Delights? Or at least order them? I will buy it at a high price. Preferably original (with or without nuts) And no Chocolate in them.

I kind of want to share them with some kids, they've been really good kids, and I've mentioned it and wanted to give them a chance to try it.

And yes I've been watching Narnia

Sometimes the kebab places carry them. The one on Hyehwa-ro used to, but it's closed, but you might check another one in your neighborhood.

Which taste like absolute crap.

If you like good turkish delight don't buy the Tesco stuff.

Go up "hooker Hill" in Itaewon, pass where "What the Book" used to be and make it left at the corner. Walk straight for a minute or two (I think) and on your left you'll find a small bakery where they sell Turkish delights. It wasn't too expensive the last time I went there (last summer), but they only had boxes with one flavour in them and I wanted a box with various flavours, so I didn't buy any.

Now, OP, or anyone else, what's the deal with Narnia? Question

In The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, the White Witch uses turkish delight to tempt and enchant Edmund.

they taste like chocolate coated perfume to me. Shocked
I saw the Salam bakery in itaewon had them. Their baklava is awesome but I've yet to try the Turkish delight. Go straight down the street that Taco bell is on, away from the Hamilton hotel towards all the antique shops. They are located on the right about 5min down.Tiny shop nestled between antique shops. http://www.salambakery.com

I had an unusual experience with kids at my school tasting t-delights and liquorice. I tried thrice on different occasions. No luck... They didn't like it, saying it's tooooo unfamiliar.

I guess the jagerbomb craze won't take off in Korea then.
