I love channels like this that are being honest if they don't like something, most people would just pretend that they like every food but lets be real everyone has a different taste. Great vid! 🙂

We were just there last week the whole weekend driving from Romania and back. Istambul is amazing city and we plan to go back to it.

First... 🤭 Turkish foods looks super delicious especially with freshly made bread

You guys look so cheerful. Because of the vibe of the city i guess and you reflect that happiness to us

as a turkish local i can agree with you that iskender kebab is the most delicious turkish dish ever

Love köfte! Actually we get excellent Turkish köfte in Toronto now. I am so glad!

Wow that part of the world knows how to cook some good grilled meats. Looks so good. Flavourful without being overly spiced or saucy.

Steve he's so funny! In the other video he didn't want to try the mussels and in this video he didn't even esitate to say "mhh it's good" 😂😂😂 Steve you are the best

Here in the Balkans/Eastern Europe (and ofc Turkey), we're used to the taste of organ meat so this is generally quite good, I really love kokorec. If you try "drob" (which is like romanian haggis) it tastes similar. That Iskender looked amazing, it's my favorite kebab and that butter must make it even better. Just need to try the kunefe(especially in a traditional place like Hafiz Mustafa which is very close to Blue Mosque) and all the borek types and maybe something like maklube, çoban kavurma

Right, döner is the way the meat is prepared on that rotating thing! That bread looks so soft and fresh. That is excellent quality street food.

The first baklava that you tried was called “Kadayıf tatlısı” and it is not considered baklava, just a dessert with sugar syrup and walnuts or pistachios. They cook some kind of waffle/pancake mixture on big pans to make this noodle texture, it is called “kadayıf”. When kadayıf is cooked and dried, they shape it and put syrup and walnuts. On the other hand we need very very thin layers of pastry to make baklava, at least 40 layers they say. After baklava is cooked in oven, they put sugar syrup on it, too. Similar tastes with diferent texturest like you guessed. Thank you very much for your vlog :) Note: Our pistachios are not Italian, it comes from Gaziantep, we call it “Antep fıstığı” 😂 And you need to run for at least 30 minutes to burn calories from 1 piece of baklava. 🤣

Ah, I just ate before watching this amazing food review video, I didn't even check the title of the video before I clicked it, well, what's done is done, but man I envy you guys right now, a Good Shawarma and Koftas and ending with Baklawas, yum yum, The first Baklawa you guys ate was made with Vermicelli, the second one is made with Phyllo dough and the third one with Patties (The one with Layers), and yes Baklawa should be made with Honey, traditionally at least. Some Mici is made with intestines in its ingredients, thetas why I am always afraid of eating Mici from street vendors, its prone to get stale. I almost Jumped at my screen and grabbed the plate of Iskender Kebab off of your table, mmmm. You guys really spoiled your selves today. Enough said, I will have another Egg sandwich now 😭. I wish you guys many many more Turkish treats and delights. stay Safe and Healthy.

The brown stuff you put on Iskander Kebab is called Sumac

Yes, baklavas outside Turkey or not from Turkish restaurants, don't taste the same

The dogs and cats there are so cute!🐾

Karadeniz doner is a good choice. Whenever I go Turkey, I try to stop there. Try to go Sultanahmet Koftecisi. Just can’t believe you put red pepper chili on iskender ruined the food.

Turning thing is Döner, the flat bread is Dürüm. Enjoy. I like pickled cabbage, cucumber or green pepper , as well as potato chips in my one. Yes, that round bread is soooo yummy. Prevıous Beşiktaş football players and referees. Köfte place has been there 60 years. His grandfather used to run that place. There is at leas 50 types of Köfte in Turkey. That one is bouncy.

That type of little breat is gobit bread as we call it. Also for fun fact Dürüm means roll. Comes from Dür -mek . Döner means spinning. Çevirme alsa means spinning thats where shawarmas got their name from.

Baklava is amazing. My favorite baklava spot is Hafiz Mustafa and Farouk Galouglu .. The later has this cream drenched baklava which is to die for.

Let me tell you something funny about iskender kebap in Turkey. Once upon a time there were a iskender restaurant in İstanbul and the restaurant manager ordered an english menu for the tourist customers from the printing house. . Unfortunately, the worker who didnt know english translate "karisik iskender" as --> "confused alexander" 😅😅😅😅 The actual translation must be " mixed alexander" but the "karisik" has two meaning in Turkish. One of them is "mix" which is exact word the restaurant. On the other hand, karisik also means being mentally depressed, unclear.. That is why they chose to call mistakenly "confuse" as adjective of karisik iskender. Whenever I remember I laugh !! LOL

The first cake is called KADAIF. You could try it in Niš also. Greetings from Niš

17:50 well that chess board is actually a backgammon. BUT you can flip the board and play draughts with the pieces. Also, love how you went to the best places for the food.

Most people, especially kebab purists, don't like to have sauce with their kebabs in Turkiye. When you add sauce to kebab it dominates the taste. Just vegetables (typically onions, tomatoes, and green peppers) and spices should be more than enough. Simply, the meat should be the star of a kebab. Also, people tend to think that you are trying the hide the defects of the meat and the shortcomings of the chef by adding sauce. Personally, when I eat doner I avoid sauces and fries. You may have fries on the side if you like it, but it shouldn't be in the wrap/bread. All the best.
