Best Turkish Breakfast 🍳 What we eat in Breakfast in Turkey ❓Turkish Breakfast Recipes

[@mystrie4663]

This is not breakfast. It is a feast!! What a lovely restaurant, filled with happy people and happy food. Thank you for sharing this experience with us!

[@emre3329]

Our breakfast culture is little bit different than other countries that’s why it seems weird to people who is out of Turkey 😅

[@mystrie4663]

@@emre3329 It seems amazing to me! ❤

“The Grandma Way”…I love that. Great video. Thank you for your work.

[@Szets15]

I have fallen in love with Turkey because of you guys. Every week I make something from your channel. The lavash and hammered beef is a regular. I regularly make a big breakfast for myself. Never the same foods, it’s so versatile. I’ve recently started watching Turkish dramas and I’m so impressed with myself when I understood tesekkürler and afiyet olsun. I make my own tahini and hummus. I even made suduc. Soooo good. My son has put in an order for pide this week. I heard him refuse to share his potato gözleme with his friend recently. And So I can continue with stories of my Rafika /Turkish journey since the start of covid when I found your channel. Thank you so much for enriching my life. May God continue to bless you all. 🫶🏽

[@Refika]

Here's another Turkish phrase, "eline sağlık!" It's amazing to hear that we can touch people's lives in such a way. You can always send us photos of the recipes you tried, we would love to see them :)

[@marilynyarbrough7951]

It would be very difficult to eat Cheerios after watching this beautiful Turkish feast🤣 Thanks for sharing your culture with us, each video is a journey.

[@vcstrly4961]

Here in USA 7:30 am watching Refika and her team. I'm sure I'll be hungry after watching this episode. Thank you for sharing and a hug to your team!

[@JSH26]

I loved how when Refika entered the restaurant someone greeted her and the way he greeted her showed how big a celebrity Refika is! How humble the people are! Thank you for showing us the Turkish way of life!

[@MrWalter2202]

Once I have been to Van and there I learned, what Turkish breakfast means! So at my next stay in Istanbul I have to go there! Thank you again for a fantastic video!

[@candaceclunie9579]

Hi from Jamaica, yes please do a video on the more unique types of jams. I would love to watch and try to make them along with you

[@ladyela9283]

I’m finding myself blowing kisses and winking back to the people you filmed. You warm my heart, my Turkish brothers and sisters - I am Romanian, love in the USA because my dad escaped from communism - but we, people, have only one root, so we are family in my eyes. Thank you, again, Refika❤️. The owner obviously spent much time in the US - she has an American accent.

[@esinspiration]

I love energy of the Refika’s gang 🎈 I’m sure it’s very cheerful being part of them

[@ricksmith7631]

i came across your channel recently, now i spend my evenings watching a few videos. i never imagined how diverse and various turkish food was. up til now i only knew of the stereotypical portrayals of your food from what ive seen in media - so much more to discover and something to add to my bucket list. id love to know how cheeses are featured in the turkish diet, please keep the videos coming. i will say this, you are an extremely attractive woman in so many ways, and the way you carry yourself in the videos gives one such pleasure to watch. the man in your life is very lucky to experience the person you are. thank you so much.

[@davegilford1257]

I make English jams regularly as fruits come into season but Turkish jam is quite different and I've never really mastered it! Yes, a video on Turkish jam would be great 👍👍👍

[@countryside4386]

Yes jam video plsss

[@EpiphanyLondon]

Yes please for jam video! 😁

[@SnehaSharma-tb9pu]

I second ur suggestion...

[@sabreenausman576]

Gozleme.. The grandma way.. Authentic.. Can we have that recipe

[@kchristinecarr6320]

Thank you so much for highlighting the Turkish breakfast. I was in Istanbul many years ago and stayed in a bed and breakfast where they had the most amazing breakfast! Probably the best I’ve ever had. I fell in love with the rose petal jam and would love it if you could make that on your channel some time!

[@sadeekahsaban162]

JazakAllah ❤️🇿🇦 love love from Cape Town South Africa 💐I really appreciate your content. I have made kofte, humus, falafel, fava beans, Borek, carrot meze, menemen for my family thanks to you guys. Creating a Turkish experience at home because my bank balance doesn't allow me to travel 😂 Maybe if you can add tips for bulk cooking or food preparation. Breakfast and Dinner ideas for the week. I am cooking everyday for family of 7. During COVID lockdown it wasn't a problem because we were at home. Now kids are back at school, there's extra murals, there's work and other commitments, we are not spending so much time at home

[@idabergmann5270]

oh my goodness, i wanna come to turkey! i just realize that i have no idea of this beautiful country (i live in central europe), it's such a shame. thank you refika and team - you are amazing!!

[@mariagillinson8527]

Rafika! Please make Bastirma I had it in Egypt too. Would love to see how you make it in Turkey. Yes yes jam too.

[@debbiemildenberger9084]

My first visit to Turkiye was 2019 and my first breakfast was at this restaurant🤗. It was a great start for my new love of Turkiye. I really enjoy your tours to show and explain the history and regions of the foods. 💜 Debbie from Canada

all looks amazing but OMG those tomatoes!!!!!

[@naznajand7941]

Wow it is so nice the owner speaks English. I loooove Turkish couisin. I would love to come to Istanbul and try different places . Thanks for showing this place. I live in US but I am Iranian. I love turkey. Thanks rafika

[@gwynwellliver4489]

I have said it before. Breakfast was one of the things I loved about our visit to Turkey over 10 years ago. What a wonderful place you found!

[@CaptainSoloSeries]

I love this channel! Such an underappreciation of Turkish cuisine in the US, and I’m so glad you guys are rectifying that! Suggestion: as a historian, I think it would be fabulous if you guys did a few episode with historian and author Jason Goodwin. He wrote a five part historical fiction series that talks at length about Ottoman cuisine, and then even wrote a cookbook. It would be awesome to have him on, talk about Ottoman dishes and ingredients, go to some of the restaurants in Istanbul that replicate the older recipes, and/or prepare some of the recipes from his book.

Thank you for feeding the animals with the leftovers, it shows your kindness and humanity . x

My Turkish mother-in-law served me a big homemade breakfast the first time I met her. It was so delicious and so different from the breakfasts I grew up with.

[@mfenderson2714]

I love turkish breakfasts because it's so filling and lots of egg dishes to choose from. Breakfast is my most favorite meal of the day. I hope to visit Nişantaşı, too!

I would love to see you all set up a beautiful Turkish breakfast and feed those who may not be able to have that often in their lives. You all do amazing work and I thank you for sharing your beautiful culture with us.

[@brendanelson9635]

@@Armymum13 Thank you. I Will look forward to Saturday mornings !

[@teri526]

I got full just watching. This type of location will always succeed. People go to places where they can feel the spirit and love that the food is made with. Nothing is free but this is worth probably more than they ask....the fact that you have shown us how to make most of these fantastic items...let's make jam! Bahar...now is your chance to find great "jamming music videos" for a great intro. Can't wait. Can you make such a thing as basil jam?

[@cmundon]

Really making me want to visit Istanbul. Love this channel

[@grahamturner5963]

That is a massive looking breakfast 👌 The look of pure joy on Burak's face is brilliant 😃 Many years of working shifts reduced my breakfast to coffee and cigarettes but, seeing this, I'm tempted back to real food 🙃

[@lucieadjek8506]

We don't LIKE the video, we LOVE them ENORMOUSLY that you can't even imagine. I really LOVE when you take us to different places in your country especially to your restaurants. Thank you so much for your time, giving us that pleasure and good opportunity to journey and breakfast with you and your crew. Love the theme /resource of variations. Nice of you sharing this with us. Blessings to you and your team. Lots of love to you all 💞. ✌️✌️✌️And ❤️❤️❤️ 😄.

[@elisabettai2053]

Refika, Burak, Bahar etc. You guys are a breath of fresh air for me. You have a cost team that make us feel home💓 Having said that, I felt like Turkish grand breakfast(hope you do it only on Sundays) a mixture of our breakfast(sweet items) together with aperitivo(afternoon) with all those pickled vegetables, pies and cheese. I may not be able to eat most of the items in the morning for reasons such as; lack of time and habit. I'm not used to jave savour items in the mornings. It was a fine visual treat and the owner is a smart gorgeous lady. Thank you for sharing your culinary culture with us. Turkish breakfast is a must when you visit Turkey so as Kimchi if you visit S. Korea or eating Sushi in Tokyo. Take care you all😍😗🍉

[@sharadz]

such a feast. would love to see the jams on your show - especially the fig jam and the chili jam

[@miloodidi]

Omg looks delicious , if I ever go to Türkiye I will go and try it thank you

[@madworld1962]

When you guys go out together it's so much fun and we still learn so much!

[@lillyess385]

Please make a video on Turkish jams like the green fig, rose petal, quince, peach, black berry, raspberry, apricot, orange rind, walnut, aubergine or my personal favourite, sour cherry. You can get your viewers to vote which jams they'd like to see.
