In today’s world where there exists such great a phenomenon as globalization, regional characteristics, values and habits, and mainly the local values should be conserved; they should be introduced to domestic and foreign tourists with activities carried out both nationwide and abroad; and values, norms, and meals belonging to regional cuisines should be protected. Within the activities concerning introducing and maintaining Turkish cuisine, introducing Turkish cuisine is being given great importance basing especially on regional meals.
