7 MUST TRY FOOD IN ISTANBUL, TURKEY! 🇹🇷 | INSANE Street Food Tour 2022 | What to eat in İstanbul?

[@ZachSolie]

Another bomb video! Everyone check out their Patreon so we can see more feasts like these!

Thank you so much Zachary!! ☺️🙌 This video was definitely a budget stretcher but we had a few nights of instant noodles after to compensate 😀 hope you guys are well! ☺️❤️

[@MuhammadAwais-eh3gd]

Definitely bro

[@naberrrrr5678]

you shouldnt eat that much midye (mussle) because it contains lots of heavy metals

[@theonoexperience]

Turkish food is the best! Do you have plans to explore the Asian side? Food is a lot more affordable in Kadikoy.

[@MattandJulia]

We have actually left Istanbul now and our off to explore even more of Turkey 😍☺️

[@01x01-j4g]

Without a shadow of a doubt that Turkish food is the BEST in the world. It so scrumptious, It allures your senses in every bite. The portions are plentiful and it makes you feel full. In france and switzerland, they offer you two bites and they call it a meal. And their food is lousy ....

Thank you so much Ozkan, really appreciate that! 🙏❤️🇹🇷

[@precursors]

Just an FYI, the "flour", or Sahlep is made of a special Orchid only found in Turkey. To prevent extinction there is a ban on export of Sahlep. You should have also tried the hot Sahlep drink, perfect for chilly weather. Also the "Burnt Milk Pudding" you ate (17:00) is called Tavuk Gogusu which literally translates to Chicken Breast. Boiled chicken breast is added in to the pudding to give it a fibery texture.

[@MattandJulia]

Really interesting, we didn't know it was only grown in Turkey! Thanks 🤗

[@grady4757]

Good lord. Everything looks incredible. Any regional breads and bakeries are always my first stop. 🥖🥐🍞 Simit is one of my favorite breads. Good thing we walk a lot as travelers. 😉 Manti looks fantastic too. Wonder if there are meat substitutes. Perhaps potato, for vegetarians or vegans? Baklava has got to be a top 5 pastry in the world. Done well, it’s a memory, not just a food. Side note, Turkey is the third largest producer of pistachios in the world. Explains the use in many foods. The “God I miss Mexico” comment did me in. 😂 I feel that. Fantastic job as usual, y’all.

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you so much Brian, over the moon you enjoyed it! ☺️ Us too! 🍞There were actually Spinach Manti 😋 It is so strange re Pistachios becuase, we are used to them being quite pricey but yeah they are on everything here (which is AMAZING ☺️)!

[@ggoddkkiller1342]

Actually those tricks etc isn't something touristic at all as i was only five years old when i first met one of those guys. He played with me so long i was yelling and screaming anymore and he wasn't still giving me my ice cream while laughing like a lunatic!! I guess he liked the scene of a little boy yelling at him but ofc it was very annoying for me so i started walking away while saying i didn't want it anymore. Then he instantly ran after me and gave my ice cream while apologizing, lol. I learned an important lesson that day😁😁

[@m.korkusuz4109]

​@@MattandJulia Thats a traditional thing for those icecream vendors from that city (Kahraman Maras), only that type of icecream allows them to do those tricks, its bonding very strong and doesnt melt fast, even in the city they have a kind of a festival for that icecream and they performing how strong it is by towing trucks with ice cream rope (Very thick ofc ) or trying to cut icecreams by cleaver or axes.

Salep or sahlep added to ice cream is a thickening agent made from the tubers of orchid. I'm not sure if you tried the chicken breast-pudding. Unless you know ahead of time you'll never guess they add chicken breast strands to thicken it.

I have spent a lot of time in Turkey (10 years) and I currently live in a small provincial city in the south. What always amazes me is how foreigners rave about Turkish food and how 'wonderful' it is. I couldn't disagree more. Give me bacon and eggs any day over menemen which is just spicy scrambled egg. Cheese is very often limited to beyaz peynir, the white feta type of cheese and/or kashar, acheese which resembles a yellow cheese but is quite tasteless and rubbery. I pass on both. Yes there is quite a variety of jams but did you notice they are runnier - more liquid - than the thick jams we are accustomed to? And I have never found my personal favourite, marmalade, here. Regarding things like mantı, gözleme, these could potentially be good but are not because the bulk is made up of the cheaper ingredients. In shop bought mantı there is barely a microdot of ground beef so it is just like eating plain pasta. The same with gözleme, the cheese is hardly noticeable so it is just like eating plain bread. The tantuni you had looked good but where I live they don't serve it like that. They simply chop up döner meat, wrap it up in a lavash and call it tantuni when it is just a meat döner or donna as they say in the UK. And Turkish sweets are just too sweet!

[@MattandJulia]

I guess it comes down to it being “different” for a tourist on a short visit, of course living there is a completely different story 🥰

[@alanfleming4823]

@@MattandJulia Hi. Yes I think that is true. A short-term visitor is more likely to appreciate Turkish food but very quickly the 'novelty' would wear off. Outside of the three big cities there is very little choice of food if eating out. It's a choice of meat or chicken döner or ciğ köfte. I'm fortunate enough to sometimes eat homemade Turkish food and this can be very tasty so I am not totally anti Turkish food. I just want to finally say how much I am enjoying your videos. As a student of Russian Studies in the 80s in England, I spent a lot of time in the Soviet Union. I haven't been back since I graduated in 1986 but thanks to you I am now seeing a lot of the places I never made it to. Travelling in Soviet times was very difficult. You had to be part of an 'Intourist' group and only saw what they permitted you to see. Keep up the good work!
