I love the potluck idea, Michael! I've also noticed that many grocery stores in LA have Turkish ingredients. It would be great to do a group shopping trip to help everyone find what they need to cook traditional meals.

Great suggestions, Michael and Sarah!
Potlucks are a fantastic way to engage with the community. Involving grocery trips is also a brilliant idea, especially since many might not be familiar with where to find specific Turkish ingredients. Perhaps you could also consider organizing a cooking session where participants can learn to make a few classic dishes together.
Don't forget about the online resources available! For those looking to stream Turkish cooking shows and programs, utilizing a best IPTV streaming service could provide inspiration and guidance.

Partnering with cultural centers can offer structured support and access to a wider audience. They might even host events that showcase Turkish cinema or music alongside food, creating a holistic cultural experience.
As we continue to share our ideas, let’s keep the focus on community involvement. This can truly make a difference in celebrating our heritage!
