We’ve been visiting Adrasan (or Cavus) since 2004 and every year we go at least once to the market near the village which is held every Sunday. The best bit about going to the market is visiting Ramasan’s Bar afterwards! It seems a tradition for the ex-pat Brits and the regular visitors to do this on a Sunday.
I like sitting having a beer and watching village life go by and I always dream about buying this bar. It is not an old building and it is not what you might call picturesque. But it is has a certain faded charm, I like the fact that it is just a bar / cafe and I like Ramasan, the owner. Over the years we have got to know Ramasan and seen his daughter and son grow up.
Ramasan used to sell draught Efes and served it by the litre glass and I think that was particularly popular in the days when a package tour operator used to send people to Adrasan. Adrasan is no longer a destination for tour companies, that ended in 2003 (I think) and Ramasan no longer serves draught beer.
Photographs: The first is a collage of the 7 years we have visited Ramasan’s (2004 to 2010). The second was taken in April of this year, the one day when it rained a bit.
