Because of Turkey's geographical conditions, one can not speak about a general overall climate. In Istanbul and around the sea of Marmara (Marmara region) the climate is moderate (winter 4 deg.C and summer 27 deg.C); in winter the temperature can drop below zero.
Best Answer: You can still have bread even though you are serving it with dinner.... You could set out fat slices of warm Italian bread and the little plates with olive oil and fresh cracked pepper. You dip the bread in the olive oil. It's really good.
@delallofoods. Entertaining with Cheeses, Olives, Antipasti and Small Plates. POSTED August 23, 2014. Antipasti, the foods offered before the meal itself begins, are a colorful, delicious way to set the stage for the coming feast and to invite your friends and family to the table. In Italian tradition, antipasti are selected for color, flavor, texture and how well they complement both each other and the meal to come.
