Food for Fussy eaters

[Nik]

Going to icemelor in a couple of weeks,and my dad is a fussy eater,
i.e he dont like turkish food,and doesnt like most english at the best of time
just likes english fry ups,cheese sandwiches,nothing saucy etc etc
you get the picture,he likes english food thats bad for you

anywhere he can go that anyone recommends to eat?
dont want him to starve,and he is starting to worry about what he is going to eat all ready
I already sen someone post there is a nice fish and chiop shop called harry ram's

thanks for any replies

Nik welcome

He sounds just like my dad, egg, sausage and chips for tea, chicken pitta for lunch, english breakfast etc

I just tell the doorman on the way in and they have always said no problem just tell him to tell us what he wants.

They even give him kids portions in most places as he doesn't eat a lot on a night.

oh and omlettes etc, its never been a problem honest

Hi Nik and welcome to the forum.

As Col says, it's not a problem. You can get anything you want in Icmeler, they cater for everyone and if it's not on the menu, they will go out of their way to make it for you.

Hope you have a great time.

Hi Nik Welcome to the forum.
Your dad sounds just like me, dont like sauces, dont like spicy, dont like pasta or rice. I never have a problem finding something to eat. As colette + Kazz have already said they will do anything you ask for. I live on omelettes, salads, sandwiches + chips.
Tell him not to worry, he definately wont starve.
Have a great holiday

I thought It was only me who didnt like all those just mentioned,went for 2 weeks last year and had 14 fillet steaks,going for 3 weeks this time!!!

[Jozzyd]

21 fillet steaks then hey?

[andrea m]

Just back and again as always I lived on toast, crisps (snack in day), chips, pizza, cheese and it was never a problem wherever we ate as others have said. Just let them know and they'll accomodate you.

Welcome to ICR and have a fab holiday

my husbands is just as bad but you can ger anything you want their is no problem

Traveller's Rest Restaurant does very good English meals but then again most of them do. My husband is not very adventurous with food but he has never had a problem as every kind of taste is catered for. Your dad will be very surprised.

Hi Nik,
As everyone has said they will cater for your dad everywhere you go. Last year my son brought a friend along (13) and the day before we left his mum gave me a printed list of what he will and won't eat, I was worried what I had let myself in for. Everywhere we went though I got the list out and asked them to make something off it and they always obliged. They did make me laugh in one place though, he was messing about with his food and one of the waiters came over and said "now get that eat, we know you like it because your mum's said so" and he did, every last bit

Never realised there were so many fussy eaters out there!

Mind you, when we went to Icmeler in October, my son (12) was going through a fairly fussy phase, but to give him his due, he did try most of the food offered in our hotel, even if there were some things he wasn't keen on - and he absolutely loved the Turkish meatballs we had on our boat trip.

[Chris]

More than likely will end up having 21 steaks this time!!!,the times I have said I will have chicken or somthing else tonight,but never did in the end,where in the UK can you afford to have the most beautiful steaks at them prices!!and entertainment thrown in!!!.Roll on next week.

Tell Dad to ask exactly what he wants they will do it for him
No matter where you are Top resturant or Cafe
Just ask and dont worry
They want you to be happy with their service

if you dad likes fry ups he will be in heaven they do them all day in some places and they are really cheap.

My other half lives on Lamb chops whn we're away.
