ABOUT
NY’sDelight is a food adventures & kitchen junkie blog written by Staten Island, New York based cook & writer Aysegul aka Ashly. Aysegul was born & raised in Yalova, Turkey and has been living in the United States since 1989. Aside from cooking, she holds a BBA degree from Pace University & Master of Science in Accounting from Long Island University and works in Accounting. She is married and has a daughter Aleyna & lives with family in Staten Island, NY.
I’ve always had this passion and unimaginable interest in food & the kitchen, that began at a very young age. I’ve created this blog to share my food findings and ideas, this motivates me to share my kitchen adventures & ideas. If I were to define my cooking, I can honestly say, I am a variety of mixed foods and cultures. This a great example of how I grew up in New York with exposure to large diverse surroundings. A family business that specialized in Middle Eastern & Mediterranean Foods made cooking and tasting easily accessible with a wide variety of international foods and flavors.
This is my new kitchen. This was my old kitchen.

Merhaba! A good friend turned me onto Turkish cuisine awhile back, but Boston is sadly lacking in good Turkish restaurants-I think we have one, total
I highly encourage you to enter my recipe competition
Because it’d be fun – and because I would love to see some delicious recipes that I could replicate at home!
Cheers!

Merhaba Aysegul,
Foodbuzz da seni gorunce cok sevindim.
Ben Hayriye, Bulgaristan dogumlu, fakat Yalovaliyim. Ailem Yalova da yasiyor. Ben yaklasik bir yildir ABD deyim. Evlendikten sonra esimin isi dolayisi ile Lexington,KY yede yasiyoruz. Ben Gida Muhendisiyim ve simdi burada MS yapiyorum.
Yaklasik iki aydir ben de Turk yemekleri tariflerinden olusan bir blog yaptim ve onunla ugrasiyorum. Buralarda insanlar Turkish Cuisine ile ilgili pek bisey bilmiyor. Bu da bende Turk yemeklerini ve yemek kulturunu tanitma heyecani uyandirdi. Zaman buldukca websiteme evde kendi yaptigim ve fotograflarini cektigim yemeklerin tariflerini yayinliyorum.
Seni gordugume cok mutlu oldum. Yalova da dogdugunu gorunce daha da heyecanlandim:)
Senin websiteni linklerime hemen ekliyorum:) sen de benimkini eklersen sevinirim.
Umarim daha sik gorusuruz,
Sevgilerimle,
HAYRIYE

Merhaba Hayriye,
Bende cok memnun oldum. Tabii linki koyarim ne demek.
Nasil begendinmi ABD yi? Lexington, KY nasil? Ben 1989 yillindan beri NY’ta yasiyorum esim ve ailemde burda. Yalova’dan cok kucuk yasta ayrildim ama her sene gidip geliyorum hemen hemen. Yalova cok guzel!
Benim web blog amacimda senin gibi, burda cok tanidiklarim var ve hep bende yemek tarifleri isticeyince bir blog yaptim. Aslinda cok guzel bir dunya..kultur ve yemek tarifler vermek gostermek. Senin bir advantayin sen gida muhendesisin, bu dahada guzel. Peki TR calistinmi bunun uzerine? Benimde yemek ve dukkan license larim var. Kendi Turk dukkanimiz var Brooklyn NY ta.
Sana bol bol basarilar diliyorum ve hosgeldin ABD, insallah umdugun gibidir.
Istedigin zaman yaz bende yazarim..
Gorusmek uzere..Selamlarimla, Aysegul

thank you, aysegul, for visiting my blog. i have just discovered yours and shall be visiting it often; it’s lovely. i have spent a lot of time in your country and simply adore it. some of my best memories are associated with a place called Cenat near the blue mosque which shut down quite a few years ago. they used to make a gorgeous borek filled w. minced meat. a pity it shut down.
happy blogging!

Dear NY’s Delight,
Thanks so much for your wonderful blog—pictures and all. I was traveling/living/falling in love with a particularily good looking Turkish man earlier this year, and could not get enough of the food. Trying to learn some recipes, I’ve been attempting to cook Turk cuisine apon my return. Tomorrow I am attempting Patlican Karniyak for my family, and hope all goes well. Thanks for helping!
