1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,280
Did you know there's a national park just outside of our nation's capital where you can

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,500
stay in cabins where future spies once stayed?

3
00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:11,420
This park was mothballed during World War II and used for military purposes.

4
00:00:11,420 --> 00:00:16,380
This is where the spies training would have lodged, eaten, and trained.

5
00:00:16,380 --> 00:00:20,340
And just down the road you can drink beer at a brewery with a spy theme.

6
00:00:20,340 --> 00:00:26,900
I was going to say every time I said cheers, I'm taking a sip and I'm like it's like 10 am.

7
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:31,860
And then follow it with Simit, authentic Turkish bagels at a family-run restaurant with

8
00:00:31,860 --> 00:00:33,260
Turkish roots.

9
00:00:33,260 --> 00:00:38,260
Simit is one of the most popular street foods I'm sure you saw when you went to Turkey as

10
00:00:38,260 --> 00:00:39,260
well.

11
00:00:39,260 --> 00:00:43,780
We're exploring Prince William County, Virginia, a short drive from Washington, D.C. that

12
00:00:43,780 --> 00:00:46,420
can feel a world away.

13
00:00:46,420 --> 00:00:51,620
Stay tuned for Hidden Gems in Northern Virginia on this episode of The Travels with Darley

14
00:00:51,620 --> 00:00:57,700
Podcast, where I take you on location to meet local experts and enjoy the sounds and experiences

15
00:00:57,700 --> 00:01:02,580
that you can only get when you visit a destination and talk to the locals.

16
00:01:02,580 --> 00:01:11,940
So let's travel into nature and toast with a brew.

17
00:01:11,940 --> 00:01:16,100
Calling all national park lovers, this next stop may surprise you.

18
00:01:16,100 --> 00:01:22,060
We're taking a Ranger guided tour of Prince William Forest Park, a national park just outside

19
00:01:22,060 --> 00:01:26,060
of Washington, D.C. that feels very far away.

20
00:01:26,060 --> 00:01:30,820
I arrive and meet park ranger Brendan Bonner at the visitor center where there's a small

21
00:01:30,820 --> 00:01:33,020
gift shop and museum.

22
00:01:33,020 --> 00:01:38,360
He's wearing his national park ranger uniform with a broad brim flat hat, sandy tan short

23
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,540
sleep button down shirt and khaki trousers.

24
00:01:41,540 --> 00:01:47,220
We're taking a walk on a few of the notable 37 miles of hiking trails to discover what makes

25
00:01:47,220 --> 00:01:51,180
these serene wooded landscapes so unique.

26
00:01:51,180 --> 00:01:56,340
It's early summer in Prince William County and the woods are a verdant green as we head down

27
00:01:56,340 --> 00:01:58,660
the Laurel Loop Trail.

28
00:01:58,660 --> 00:02:01,220
Brendan, how old is this national park?

29
00:02:01,220 --> 00:02:06,780
National Park is created in 1936 as Chopawamsic Recreational Demonstration Area as

30
00:02:06,780 --> 00:02:12,500
a getaway for the urban residents of Washington, D.C. to have a national park in their backyard.

31
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:15,540
It's the largest preserved green space in the region.

32
00:02:15,540 --> 00:02:20,460
So I lived in Washington, D.C. for quite a while and I didn't even know about this park.

33
00:02:20,460 --> 00:02:22,540
It's actually pretty common, pretty common.

34
00:02:22,540 --> 00:02:26,060
We like to think of ourselves as the best kept secret of Northern Virginia.

35
00:02:26,060 --> 00:02:28,020
How many miles of trails are there?

36
00:02:28,020 --> 00:02:31,780
Thirty seven miles of trails for hiking and biking in the park.

37
00:02:31,780 --> 00:02:35,980
And it means that folks can come out and have something pretty close to a true wilderness

38
00:02:35,980 --> 00:02:36,980
experience out here.

39
00:02:36,980 --> 00:02:39,140
So close to the city and a world away?

40
00:02:39,140 --> 00:02:40,140
Absolutely.

41
00:02:40,140 --> 00:02:41,140
Sure feels like one.

42
00:02:41,140 --> 00:02:45,580
Being so close to D.C. this park holds its share of political secrets.

43
00:02:45,580 --> 00:02:50,460
So during World War II, the park was actually closed off to the public and used as a training

44
00:02:50,460 --> 00:02:56,100
ground for the Office of Strategic Services, which was the nation's first true multidisciplinary

45
00:02:56,100 --> 00:02:58,300
intelligence gathering agency.

46
00:02:58,300 --> 00:03:00,140
It's the forerunner of the modern CIA.

47
00:03:00,140 --> 00:03:01,940
Huh, this was a spy zone

48
00:03:01,940 --> 00:03:06,340
They were running all around out here, solving field problems, being spies.

49
00:03:06,340 --> 00:03:07,660
This is where they learned how to do that.

50
00:03:07,660 --> 00:03:12,620
Gorilla warfare, commando style training, small arms training, explosives and demolition

51
00:03:12,620 --> 00:03:13,620
training.

52
00:03:13,620 --> 00:03:15,620
So they would blow things up here?

53
00:03:15,620 --> 00:03:16,620
Absolutely.

54
00:03:16,620 --> 00:03:17,620
Absolutely.

55
00:03:17,620 --> 00:03:20,420
This was their training ground where they learned how to take those skills and their communication

56
00:03:20,420 --> 00:03:27,100
skills and radio and go overseas and fight the secret battle of World War II.

57
00:03:27,100 --> 00:03:28,100
That's so well.

58
00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:31,540
So how long were they doing the spy training here in the park?

59
00:03:31,540 --> 00:03:35,220
They came here in 1942 and they were here to the war's end in 1945.

60
00:03:35,220 --> 00:03:36,220
Wow.

61
00:03:36,220 --> 00:03:40,420
The forerunner of a very significant agency today started with a small group right here in

62
00:03:40,420 --> 00:03:46,220
response to a problem that was developing in real time, which was a separate effort

63
00:03:46,220 --> 00:03:48,020
needed in World War II.

64
00:03:48,020 --> 00:03:50,300
Oh, there goes the beetle.

65
00:03:50,300 --> 00:03:52,140
He's on the move.

66
00:03:52,140 --> 00:03:53,140
He's on the move.

67
00:03:53,140 --> 00:03:58,540
Brendan and I continue walking to an area where park visitors can rent both cabins and

68
00:03:58,540 --> 00:04:03,740
entire cabin campsites for their stay at very economical rates.

69
00:04:03,740 --> 00:04:09,340
Four out of five of the cabin camps are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

70
00:04:09,340 --> 00:04:14,460
They may be a bit rustic, but these cabin camps are rich in history and available to rent

71
00:04:14,460 --> 00:04:18,860
for between 70 to 200 of your closest friends.

72
00:04:18,860 --> 00:04:23,860
So this is one of the park's five historic cabin camps, which were built by the CCC in the

73
00:04:23,860 --> 00:04:27,980
1930s as part of the facilities for the park.

74
00:04:27,980 --> 00:04:32,060
So there have been a lot of young men in the depression area out here working to make some

75
00:04:32,060 --> 00:04:34,980
money and build some infrastructure for the park at the same time.

76
00:04:34,980 --> 00:04:40,340
And so they built five of these camps, each holding up to 200 campers for folks to come

77
00:04:40,340 --> 00:04:46,300
out and be able to stay here and play here for a while in the summertime.

78
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:51,380
So I could come with a group of two, four, ten, 200?

79
00:04:51,380 --> 00:04:52,380
Any size you like.

80
00:04:52,380 --> 00:04:55,740
Yep, if you rent one of the camps, you get the entire camp to yourself, including a commercial

81
00:04:55,740 --> 00:04:59,580
kitchen, dining hall and lodging for up to 200 people.

82
00:04:59,580 --> 00:05:00,580
With a beautiful fireplace.

83
00:05:00,580 --> 00:05:02,300
With a beautiful fireplace.

84
00:05:02,300 --> 00:05:07,420
How much does it cost right now to rent a cabin versus the camp?

85
00:05:07,420 --> 00:05:12,700
Right now renting one cabin in Camp 3, which is the only place where we do individual cabin

86
00:05:12,700 --> 00:05:15,220
rentals is about $60 a night.

87
00:05:15,220 --> 00:05:18,220
Renting an entire camp will run from about $600 to $900 a night.

88
00:05:18,220 --> 00:05:21,020
Okay, not bad though, if you split it up among friends.

89
00:05:21,020 --> 00:05:23,700
If you have 200 friends to bring, absolutely, that knocks it down a lot.

90
00:05:23,700 --> 00:05:27,180
I think we could put a call out for that.

91
00:05:27,180 --> 00:05:32,620
During the Great Depression, President Franklin D. Roosevelt used the CCC program, or civilian

92
00:05:32,620 --> 00:05:37,060
conservation corps, in an effort to turn the economy around with a program called The

93
00:05:37,060 --> 00:05:38,580
New Deal.

94
00:05:38,580 --> 00:05:43,340
Those seeking work could enlist in work programs where they would receive transportation,

95
00:05:43,340 --> 00:05:48,540
housing, food, clothing, and a small stipend to work on various projects, including building

96
00:05:48,540 --> 00:05:52,460
camps like this one in Prince William Forest Park.

97
00:05:52,460 --> 00:05:56,540
You walk up the stairs to check out the dining hall built by the CCC.

98
00:05:56,540 --> 00:05:59,300
This reminds me of my childhood summer camp.

99
00:05:59,300 --> 00:06:02,780
Yep, exactly like my old camp experience.

100
00:06:02,780 --> 00:06:05,620
This is the dining hall.

101
00:06:05,620 --> 00:06:06,620
Even smells like camp.

102
00:06:06,620 --> 00:06:07,620
Doesn't it?

103
00:06:07,620 --> 00:06:09,580
With, that big fireplace.

104
00:06:09,580 --> 00:06:10,580
That's great.

105
00:06:10,580 --> 00:06:12,820
You can have 200 of your friends in here, even better.

106
00:06:12,820 --> 00:06:14,300
That's a great place.

107
00:06:14,300 --> 00:06:16,500
In the dining hall.

108
00:06:16,500 --> 00:06:22,420
So if you can rent this entire cabin camp, you can make your own summer camp.

109
00:06:22,420 --> 00:06:25,260
You can have experiences right here in the park any time you want with your friends.

110
00:06:25,260 --> 00:06:26,260
That's so fun.

111
00:06:26,260 --> 00:06:27,260
It is.

112
00:06:27,260 --> 00:06:28,260
It is a lot of fun.

113
00:06:28,260 --> 00:06:32,180
But before I decide to bring a group here, Brendan offers to show me one of the wooden

114
00:06:32,180 --> 00:06:35,340
cabins where we'd be staying the night.

115
00:06:35,340 --> 00:06:38,220
So there's a spy link with these cabins as well?

116
00:06:38,220 --> 00:06:43,100
Yes, so the historic cabin camps when the park was mothballed during World War II and used

117
00:06:43,100 --> 00:06:49,060
for military purposes. This is where the spies and training would have lodged, eaten, and

118
00:06:49,060 --> 00:06:50,060
trained.

119
00:06:50,060 --> 00:06:52,780
So you can stay in cabins where spies stayed?

120
00:06:52,780 --> 00:06:53,780
Absolutely, you can.

121
00:06:53,780 --> 00:06:55,380
It's part of the rich history of this place.

122
00:06:55,380 --> 00:06:57,940
There aren't any secret notes still hidden inside.

123
00:06:57,940 --> 00:07:00,820
If you find some, they're probably encrypted, so good luck.

124
00:07:00,820 --> 00:07:03,740
So my spy skills are learning here.

125
00:07:03,740 --> 00:07:07,260
Who knows?

126
00:07:07,260 --> 00:07:10,180
Brendan and I hop over to The Crossing Trail

127
00:07:10,180 --> 00:07:14,340
Another area where history takes center stage in this national park.

128
00:07:14,340 --> 00:07:16,700
Travelers can hike along a half mile loop trail.

129
00:07:16,700 --> 00:07:21,980
It takes you along portions of the trail that General George Washington and French General

130
00:07:21,980 --> 00:07:27,780
Rochambeau took their troops during the American Revolution on route to Yorktown.

131
00:07:27,780 --> 00:07:32,220
The Washington Rochambeau Revolutionary Route National Historical Trail.

132
00:07:32,220 --> 00:07:37,940
Brendan, now we're walking on a portion of the Washington Rochambeau National Historic

133
00:07:37,940 --> 00:07:38,940
Trail.

134
00:07:38,940 --> 00:07:44,020
We are on a military road used by General Washington and his troops to move down to Yorktown in

135
00:07:44,020 --> 00:07:45,020
1781.

136
00:07:45,020 --> 00:07:47,300
We're passing here in September of that year.

137
00:07:47,300 --> 00:07:50,340
Why are we walking in a ditch?

138
00:07:50,340 --> 00:07:55,260
This road is essentially a sunken lane, which is a very common historical type of road.

139
00:07:55,260 --> 00:07:59,260
It probably leveraged an existing drainage of some sort that they would have cleaned up

140
00:07:59,260 --> 00:08:02,780
the bottom of the drainage to make it a military road that can handle 7,000 troops and all

141
00:08:02,780 --> 00:08:03,780
their equipment.

142
00:08:03,780 --> 00:08:08,740
Wow, so a lot of troops marched through here in order to help us win the war and win

143
00:08:08,740 --> 00:08:09,740
our independence?

144
00:08:09,740 --> 00:08:10,740
Absolutely.

145
00:08:10,740 --> 00:08:14,900
Within three weeks of passing through here, they were on their way to Yorktown, and that

146
00:08:14,900 --> 00:08:18,940
was where the surrender of the British accord under Lord Cornwallis.

147
00:08:18,940 --> 00:08:24,580
What would the conditions have been like along this particular part of the route that is

148
00:08:24,580 --> 00:08:26,260
now the national park?

149
00:08:26,260 --> 00:08:31,740
So this road is actually a series of roads that ran from Newport, Rhode Island, all the

150
00:08:31,740 --> 00:08:36,700
way down to Yorktown, and there would have been portions of it that were in great shape

151
00:08:36,700 --> 00:08:38,980
and portions of it that weren't.

152
00:08:38,980 --> 00:08:42,580
General Washington actually provided for the road to be improved ahead of his troops

153
00:08:42,580 --> 00:08:43,980
all the way down.

154
00:08:43,980 --> 00:08:48,380
And so it would have been pretty good marching, the only problem was it was 680 miles to get

155
00:08:48,380 --> 00:08:49,380
there.

156
00:08:49,380 --> 00:08:50,380
That's a long time.

157
00:08:50,380 --> 00:08:51,380
Yes.

158
00:08:51,380 --> 00:08:55,460
So they would have been moving horses through here ammunition, artillery, all of that kind

159
00:08:55,460 --> 00:08:56,460
of stuff.

160
00:08:56,460 --> 00:08:58,420
Everything needed to support a major army in the field.

161
00:08:58,420 --> 00:09:06,780
It took them from late June to late September to make it from Rhode Island to Yorktown,

162
00:09:06,780 --> 00:09:08,140
so it was a long trip.

163
00:09:08,140 --> 00:09:12,460
It's kind of neat that if you're visiting this particular national park, you can not

164
00:09:12,460 --> 00:09:19,060
only experience the CCC and now also the history of the American Revolution, all in one

165
00:09:19,060 --> 00:09:20,060
place.

166
00:09:20,060 --> 00:09:21,060
Absolutely.

167
00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:22,580
It's pretty fascinating that we have all this right here.

168
00:09:22,580 --> 00:09:26,700
I mean, Northern Virginia has long been a cornerstone of a historical activity in our

169
00:09:26,700 --> 00:09:29,140
country and that flowed through here as well.

170
00:09:29,140 --> 00:09:33,140
And we're a stones throw from Washington DC, our nation's capital.

171
00:09:33,140 --> 00:09:34,140
We are.

172
00:09:34,140 --> 00:09:37,740
We are indeed so close.

173
00:09:37,740 --> 00:09:42,220
To continue with the spy theme, I'm heading over to Evesdrop Brewery in Manassas

174
00:09:42,220 --> 00:09:48,420
Virginia to meet entrepreneur Sam Madden, who drew on a few themes to name this brewery.

175
00:09:48,420 --> 00:09:53,860
It has multiple levels and spaces, indoors and outside, where you play games, sip beside

176
00:09:53,860 --> 00:09:58,980
of fire pit, enjoy the tiki garden or rooftop patio and more.

177
00:09:58,980 --> 00:10:03,580
Sam is meeting me to choose a beer from a long list, eliminated on a large, light-box

178
00:10:03,580 --> 00:10:05,660
sign in the tap room.

179
00:10:05,660 --> 00:10:08,820
You all have a lot of different beers on your menu that you've produced here.

180
00:10:08,820 --> 00:10:13,620
All the ones with the pigeon on the menu are the ones that we brew in-house, light-laggers,

181
00:10:13,620 --> 00:10:17,420
Belgians, Estates, Sours, IPAs.

182
00:10:17,420 --> 00:10:20,460
How did you come up with the name Evesdrop for Evesdrop Brewery?

183
00:10:20,460 --> 00:10:22,940
So there's a lot of reasons behind the name.

184
00:10:22,940 --> 00:10:26,780
The first one being that we were collaboration focused when we first opened up, you basically

185
00:10:26,780 --> 00:10:31,500
would hear about us going to other breweries and seeing our beers on tap at their venues

186
00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:32,900
and the name Evesdrop.

187
00:10:32,900 --> 00:10:34,980
The second is the many different spaces that we have.

188
00:10:34,980 --> 00:10:38,420
We've got the rooftop and the tiki garden, so you pretty much evesdrop in on the

189
00:10:38,420 --> 00:10:39,420
different spaces.

190
00:10:39,420 --> 00:10:43,700
The third reason is actually funny, the customer's always asked us, "Where does an evesdrop

191
00:10:43,700 --> 00:10:44,700
come from?"

192
00:10:44,700 --> 00:10:46,220
And they're like, "Is it because pigeons are spies?"

193
00:10:46,220 --> 00:10:49,740
Because this area is also known as being an area where spies trained.

194
00:10:49,740 --> 00:10:52,980
But those are the different meanings behind the name evesdrop.

195
00:10:52,980 --> 00:10:53,980
Fun.

196
00:10:53,980 --> 00:10:54,980
Yeah.

197
00:10:54,980 --> 00:10:55,980
Well cheers.

198
00:10:55,980 --> 00:11:01,100
Now this is a segment that you can also, like all of them in this podcast.

199
00:11:01,100 --> 00:11:06,500
Watch in video format as part of the Travels with Darley series on PBS and Streaming.

200
00:11:06,500 --> 00:11:09,580
But in the TV show, you don't always get the full backstory.

201
00:11:09,580 --> 00:11:13,580
There's not enough time because the episodes are just a half hour.

202
00:11:13,580 --> 00:11:18,820
We filmed this segment and taped for the podcast at 10am on a Friday morning when the brewery

203
00:11:18,820 --> 00:11:21,540
was actually closed.

204
00:11:21,540 --> 00:11:25,060
Sometimes when you have a beer for breakfast, you do ridiculous things.

205
00:11:25,060 --> 00:11:29,140
And there was something about the creativity behind evesdrop's beers, illuminated on that

206
00:11:29,140 --> 00:11:34,100
large menu, after I'd had more than a few sips while doing this filming and not enough

207
00:11:34,100 --> 00:11:36,820
breakfast that got my real spinning.

208
00:11:36,820 --> 00:11:40,260
We were tasting last night and now I'm tasting this morning and I was going to say every

209
00:11:40,260 --> 00:11:44,100
time we say cheers, I'm taking a sip and I'm like, "It's like 10am."

210
00:11:44,100 --> 00:11:48,100
It's like, "Story of my life."

211
00:11:48,100 --> 00:11:51,140
Well, I like the names of your beers.

212
00:11:51,140 --> 00:11:53,500
You've got grumpy old bird, Big Pigey.

213
00:11:53,500 --> 00:11:57,740
I got a watermelon bird songbong, second-fogger, Irish Red Tail.

214
00:11:57,740 --> 00:12:01,780
Chandelier and a dollar menu.

215
00:12:01,780 --> 00:12:04,260
I got my drop off, heavy in my Irish Red Tail.

216
00:12:04,260 --> 00:12:06,380
I got my broken wings bird songbong.

217
00:12:06,380 --> 00:12:09,380
Yes, do prepare for my rap skills.

218
00:12:09,380 --> 00:12:11,780
Not ones, I usually tout.

219
00:12:11,780 --> 00:12:15,780
I don't even know how that much to drink, yeah?

220
00:12:15,780 --> 00:12:16,780
Just wait.

221
00:12:16,780 --> 00:12:18,780
She's rapping over here.

222
00:12:18,780 --> 00:12:22,380
So maybe I should get some food.

223
00:12:22,380 --> 00:12:27,260
This part of Northern Virginia, it has a lot of diverse dining options and when I heard

224
00:12:27,260 --> 00:12:30,660
there was a Turkish restaurant, I had to check it out.

225
00:12:30,660 --> 00:12:35,220
I also hear they have simit on the menu, which is the Turkish bagel.

226
00:12:35,220 --> 00:12:37,580
So of course, I had to make a stop.

227
00:12:37,580 --> 00:12:41,220
Serhat Yildizci  and his family run MyCravingz.

228
00:12:41,220 --> 00:12:47,140
A restaurant, bakery and cafe also located in Manassas, Virginia, about a 40 minute drive

229
00:12:47,140 --> 00:12:50,460
from Washington, D.C. and well worth it.

230
00:12:50,460 --> 00:12:53,340
I sit down at a wooden table with Serhat.

231
00:12:53,340 --> 00:12:59,200
He set the table with piping hot Turkish tea served in glass cups, various spreads, Turkish

232
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,200
bagels and more.

233
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,920
You're working here with your parents, your mom started the business.

234
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:04,920
All right.

235
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:05,920
How did that happen?

236
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,960
One of my father's friends had opened up a grocery store and my dad wanted to help out.

237
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:15,240
So he asked my mom to bake some stuff for him and they would just sell on a daily basis.

238
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,640
My mom, she would sleep there in the morning and then bake at night so the stuff would be

239
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,320
fresh in the morning.

240
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,720
Her home baked goods became so popular that she branched out to a breakfast place and

241
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:29,000
now a full service restaurant, complete with Turkish bagels.

242
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,120
My mom has been an excellent chef.

243
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,160
She loves trying new things and she put all this together.

244
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:39,240
So your mom is quite the baker and she makes the simit and this is caught on here in Northern

245
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,240
Virginia.

246
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:43,680
Simit is one of the most popular street foods.

247
00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:45,720
I'm sure you saw when you went to Turkey as well.

248
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,360
It's a good companion to everything served.

249
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:53,000
We break apart the simit which looks sort of like a flatter bagel with a larger hole

250
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,000
in the center.

251
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,000
Oh, looks so good.

252
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,800
Oh, it smells good.

253
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,600
And you can dip any of these in the cheese however you want.

254
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,240
I think I've got to get it on this cheese because it looks awesome.

255
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:10,720
I'm taking a big slab of cheese here.

256
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:15,320
The cheese here is called Muhlama or as some people call it in Turkey, Kolok.

257
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:20,040
It's a very popular dish in the eastern part of Turkey, northeastern part.

258
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:24,640
It's a mixture of corn flour, butter and cheese and it's just amazing.

259
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:30,200
Sesame seeds and the outside is just so well toasted and yet it's nice and tender inside.

260
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,960
Wow, well I could definitely get addicted to these.

261
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:33,960
Of course.

262
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,360
And now I know where outside of Istanbul to find them.

263
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:38,360
Of course.

264
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,360
Yep, you know where to go.

265
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,800
Everything looks so good and you're doing breakfast right because you have something that

266
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,560
I would say is as Americans would be like, oh, it's kind of like an omelette.

267
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,600
But what is it in Turkish?

268
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,080
So this one is called sucuk Murtar.

269
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:55,200
It's made with basically scrambled eggs and Turkish sausage.

270
00:14:55,200 --> 00:15:00,560
Turkish sausage is very thin sliced with a little bit of herbs inside, herbs and spices.

271
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:05,000
It's not too spicy but it's definitely one of the most popular breakfast that's just

272
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,000
in Turkey.

273
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,000
Teşekkürler

274
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,000
Teşekkürler ederim

275
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,000
It's been a pleasure.

276
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,000
It's been a pleasure.

277
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,000
Bir zevkti

278
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,000
We'll say.

279
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,000
It was a pleasure.

280
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,960
So fun to find a little bit of Turkiye in Virginia.

281
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:22,080
It just goes to show you that you can travel the world without ever leaving the USA, especially

282
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:26,440
in Prince William County just outside of Washington, D.C.

283
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:32,280
From spies in a national park to spies and beer in a whole lot of simmit.

284
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,400
I hope you've enjoyed hiking, dining and drinking with me on the Travel with Darlley
