I haven't had any problems with the carafes of
boiled drinking water provided by hotels. Avoid
the tap water, even to clean your teeth. Often
they will provide bottled water at a small charge.
In restaurants I found tea and beer to be safe bets.
I forgot to mention the signature room service menu
item featured by hotels in the region: whole roasted
sheep ("24 hours notice required"). Never tried it
myself, as I'm watching my figure. They offer it to
discourage self-catering guests from making
open-hearth fires in their rooms.
