Hi guys brilliant to see ye back. I think turkish food has to be among the best in the world and what ye had was incredible. Certainly beats abrakebabra here in Cork after a night on the tiles lol.

[@ChasingaPlate]

😂😂😂😂😂😂 abrakedabra! What a name! Happy new year mate and hope you had a brilliant festive season! We’re desperate to get back to Turkey soon- it’s such an amazing place and the food was just incredible! Thanks for watching and commenting 😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@ordinaryguy1025]

Yeah I wonder if "Abrakebabra" in Cork is the same as "Abbra Kebabra" in Brisbane???? I thought it was quite delicious though when I tried it.

[@elegrin5170]

Turkish cuisine could be the most food cuisine in the world.Because we have approximately 300 main title names of turkish food. Authentic cuisine, Ottoman cuisine, village cuisine, middle asia turks cuisine, home meal cuisine, antique cuisine, fast food cuisine, Babylon cuisine,Lydians cuisine, Byzantium cuisine, Greek cuisine, Mediterranean cuisine bla bla.. Every piece of this cuisine includes about 50-70 food. Think about it. :) Because as a geographical, Turkey resides between most of antic culture. From past to present. Thank you.

[@yahyaarslan8201]

Absolutely, Turkish Foods are most beautiful in the world! The Kingdom of the Foods

Hello there, I hope you enjoyed the Turkish food culture, I adore it personally. I enjoy watching these series but sad thing is while seeing that İskender my brain started to send messages to my hands like "pls stop, no more".
