In the forests of Zonguldak, perhaps the most delicious chestnut in the world, "lamb chestnut" grows, and the chestnuts collected in the season are boiled in water, "salted", roasted in the oven as a whole, "crossroad", scratched and fired in the form of kebab (komme) or dried and stored. Chestnut picking season starts in September and ends towards the end of November.

The chestnut of the Western Black Sea is more delicious due to its air or water and its shell is easier to separate. Chestnuts grown in other regions of Turkey are mostly larger, however Zonguldak chestnuts are much more delicious than other chestnuts. For this reason, those who come from outside do not leave without buying chestnuts from Zonguldak during the chestnut season. Do not return before you come in autumn and taste this taste.
