[@mahmutarelsen8815]

Iskender is much more common in Bursa and around since it is 'local' and you can eat much more better iskender even cheaper prices. The food in Turkey gets way better as you get closer to the source of the food. If you ever consider visiting Bursa I can always come up with some suggestions to you guys. Cheers!

[@LeoFtravels]

OMG I was there last week and loved the food😋😋😋😋😋

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

So yummy!

You should try " Cig kofte " vegetarian one. There is a good shop on Moda cad.

[@jcasquarelli1877]

I hope you both weren't too shaken from the earthquake. My wife and I live in Sariyer, Istanbul. I teach at a beautiful university in the same area overlooking the Black Sea. If you're still around, we invite you to the university, as well as local spots such as Anadolu Kavağı/Yoros Castle and Rumelifeneri.

[@foxesonfire]

I really like the 2 shots spanning the place. You don't usually do this , but it is good to see the inside of the restaurant you are in, not just where you are sitting.

[@milturk]

"Afiyet Olsun" Guys !!!

[@Tomatoo]

Some other suggestions like Cappadocian beef stew cooked inside closed clay pod. Potato stuffed bread (gozleme) Sheep head (kele paca) Or grilled halim cheese These are also great to try

[@murocossie]

If you have some paperwork in a government office or something, you bring lokum to officer to get things faster. And there is a understanding at Turkish people when they visit someone, "I shouldn't go there with my hands empty". Lokum is the easiest way to handle it. Otherwise I don't think any Turkish people say "I want to eat lokum today". But if you have more heavy stuff that harder to make it possible, you should bring baklava to the officer.

[@murocossie]

​@Interventer Democracy comes right after the baklava

I think Turkish food would probably be my favorite if I could just try it! I'm googling Turkish restaurants near me right now. Looks so good. The breakfast looks huge! Do people typically lunch when having the big breakfast? Is it like a brunch...late breakfast, early lunch?

[@SetCCC]

I just ordered pide and a bunch of other yummy looking things from a Turkish restaurant. Excited to try!

Hello from England new sub here. Enjoy watching your travels although Turkey isn't on our to do list I like to see what other people enjoy about it. I do like a bit of Turkish delight though especially covered in chocolate😋

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Hi Barb! Welcome to our #Wayfam. It’s funny but in Turkey they don’t have the chocolate covered ones as far as I’ve seen. I think those are sweets you can find in Australia and the UK but not in Turkey. Thank you for watching. -Ash

[@jrennodell]

Actually you can find chocolate covered ones, even in stores like Migros. Also Koska should have it too! Btw since you guys enjoy lokum have you also tried chestnut candies? Kestane şekeri in turkish.

很多西方人很羡慕東方的物價，以及餐廳的價格，但那都是大家用自己的薪資來穩定，讓每個孩子都有工作，盡可能讓每個人都能屬於適合自己，用好的東西，吃好的東西，那都是低薪才能作得到的事，因為老闆養人，高薪養不活一群人，很多的開銷，是無形的，這也是十幾年來，我都是老闆給多少就多少，沒吵過加薪，我只要求要乾淨安全的空間，但那些是無形的開銷，但我捨得，因為致少我不會有職業病.

[@patrickbrookings]

I've never been to Turkey or had pide, so please explain why it is totally different from pizza? Because from just looking at it, it looks exactly the same as pizza, only differently shaped.

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

🤣🤫 Maybe some of our Turkish friends can answer this but to be honest that’s why we tease about it. They are very similar but there is no tomato sauce and the shape is different. Im guessing a pizza would also traditionally be from Italy and most have adopted the name but pide canes from Turkey with a few slight differences so it for sure wouldn’t be called a pizza. -Ash

[@yigitbolcan312]

There is no actual differences, just difrent shaped pizza with same ingredients and base cheese is different than pizza, thats it.

[@full-grim]

The biggest difference is the dough. Dry yeast is used in pizza dough and fresh yeast is used in pide dough. Also, pide dough contains liquid oil.

[@Sadik15B]

@@WAYAWAYWithAsh actually real and original pide is with mince meat without chease only with spices tomatosauce onions.
