Hadji bey turkish delight
|
| Hadji Bey Turkish Delight - well known Cork City Delicacy, The Hadji Bey et cie trademark was developed by the Batmasian family. They were Armenian Christians who fled to the UK and Ireland from the Turkish Pogroms in the early part of the 20th Century. They settled in Cork around the time of the Great Exhibition in Fitzgerald's Park. Quality confectionary was produced and sold out of a small shop/factory where the Met Tavern stands now on MacCurtin Street in Cork. The Batmasians finally stopped producing the Hadji Bey et Cie Turkish delight in the mid 1970's when Eddie Batmasian retired. |
