As a local I can definately help you with what foods you should try. Salty foods: 1-) Çiğköfte: It's a heavyly spiced cold meze. It was originally made from uncooked ground beef and bulgur (a local type of wheat) but nowadays they made it from only bulgur. You can eat it 2 ways. Either you can put it over to a slice of lettuce or lavaş (wrap) it. You need to put hot souce, nar ekşisi (a sour souce made from pomegranate) and lemon juice as topping but it's optional. You can eat it from theese chains, Adıyamanlı Çiğköfteci Mehmet Usta or Oses Çiğköfte. Also if you find it on a kebap restaurant you went, you can consume it there as well. It's name means raw meatballs. 2-) Adana kebap: It's a type of little hot and spicy meatball. Usually made from combination of beef and lamb meat. You can eat in a lavaş or on plate with bulgur, I recommend plate but they both good. If you don't like hot food there is a plain version and it's called Urfa kebap. For better experience you should eat it from Adanalı Hasan Kolcuoğlu. It's name come from a city named Adana. 3-) Sucuk: It's a heavyly spiced beef sausage like pepporoni. You should eat it with fried eggs or bread like a warm sandwich. You can eat it almost everywhere. 4-) Kokoreç: It's heavyly cleaned lamb intestins with lots of spices but it's very good. You can eat it on plate or in bread but I prefer to eat ot in bread. You can put pickled hot pepper as topping but this is optional. They are very good street food stands around Karaköy and Taksim, also Çengelköy Kokoreççisi is also very famous. 5-) İskender: It's beef döner (known as kebap in US) on a plate with pide bread under, a semi-sweet tomato sauce and hot butter over and yoghurt beside it. It's only comes on a plate and some places make it with chicken döner but don't even try it beef is better and original. You can put dryed thyme as topping but it's optional. There isn't a best place in Istanbul, you can eat it anywhere but best place to it is in city of Bursa named Iskenderoğlu Kebapçısı. It name comes from a chef who invented it centuries ago named İskender. 6-) Poğaça: A pastry mostly consumed on breakfasts. They are a few different types of it. I recommend with ground beef (kıymalı), dill (otlu) and feta cheese (beyaz peynirli). You can buy it from every pastry. 7-) Simit: It's the famous pastry with sesame seeds on it. You should (optional) eat it with feta cheeese or cream cheese while drinking tea. It's better to buy it from street stands. Desserts: 1-) Baklava types: They are lots of baklava typed mostly with pistachio and walnut. You should try plain pistachio and walnut, fıstıklı şöbiyet and sütlü nuriye. You can put icecream or kaymak (a type if milk cream) as topping. Mado and Faruk Güllüoğlu is best places to eat it. 2-) Künefe: A type of sweet pastry with cheese and pistachio in it. You can put kaymak or icecream as topping. I strongly recommend Beyzade (it's little pricy) but Mado is good as well. 3-) Katmer: A type of warm pastry with pistachio and kaymak in it. I strongly recommend it, this is my favorite dessert. Again, yiu can eat it on Beyzade or Mado. 4-) Lokma: A type of fried pastry like doughnut. You can eat it everywhere. Drinks: 1-) Ayran: Salty yoghurt drink. Should consumed cold. You can buy it everywhere. 2-) Boza: A cold drink made from wheat. It's very hard to describe it's taste. One if the things you will either love or hate it. I only recommend Vefa Bozacısı (you can find their products in stores as well). Cinnamon and leblebi (roasted chickpea)is must have toppings. 3-) Rakı: Strong alcoholic drink.

[@isidorarandjelovic5274]

@mediiskit they invaded Serbia and other Balkan countries in the XIV century after a number of battles, Serbia won some the Ottomens won some but the they invaded up to the Danube and during Sulejman the Magnificent all the way to Vienna. Theyr rulers served as Serbian rulers, collected higher taxes for those who werent Muslim and took boys from the aged of 7 to 14 to train them for the army. There is a lot of very very old songs about a son killing his own family as a Ottoman Janicar and not recognizing them. Other countries didnt have theyr autonomy and werent ignoliged at all untill the 1850's so If that isnt ruling over somebody I dont know what is.

[@choomba45xyz]

actually no ties in turkish and chinese cuisine. Turkish cuisine got more spices tomatoe paste oriented more grilled meat chinese food more soupy they boil almost everything and use almost no spices soy sauce oriented. Turkish cuisine is tied with persian cuisine not chinese.

[@guzelmarmara]

Probably the only food tour video on KZbin describing Turkey's cuisine accurately even though the place you guys visited are highly touristy thus a bit pricey. But the way you approach and try the describe the dishes are very very accurate in terms of delivering the information about its authenticity. I subscribed only because if you guys are experiencing Istanbul this well, the other destinations you'll visit will be delivered to us at the same goodness :) There are endless options to try in Turkey's different regions but I think you had a good general view with the dishes in the video. I suggest Lakerda (salt cured fatty bonito), çiroz (chiroz, salt & sun cured a local fish specie). If you have chance to visit Antep (Gaziantep), the real center of meat-based eastern cuisine can be best found there, sure add the best Syrian restaurants in that city to the list. The next would be Antakya (Hatay) and Mardin which has similar styles but different dishes.

[@ines_uk]

Istanbul is on the top of my list of the cities I want to visit. All the food looks delicious 😋 Isn’t that bread at 7:00 called sour bread in English? We have something similar in Latvia but we call it more like “sweet and sour” bread coz it has a slight sweetness to it as well. It looks very similar.

[@coleking2520]

HI Guys, you and Istanbul with the beautiful dishes looks great. Many Greetings from Germany!

[@hurguler]

hey finally good to see you guys in istanbul. the green herb on most turkish food is parsley which is similar to cilantro but it is def. not dill. Menemen is an egg dish and even without meat it is *debatable* whether it is vegetarian or not. usually half the people in turkey would add peppers or onions in menemen and again it is a debated subject whether one should add onions or not. the type of dolma (stuffed peppers) you had is the cold appetizer version which is cooked with olive oil, and usually has pine nuts and currants in it. the entree version is served hot and very often it has ground beef in it. the stuffed grape leaves is called sarma, not dolma. dolma means stuffed and sarma means wrapped.

[@ahmedbayoumi1345]

Try the Grilled Fish (Izgara Levrek or Izgara Cipura). It is so good in the winter season, if you are into Seafood !!!

[@arborinfelix]

This was a very fun video to watch. I just wanted to say about the dolma. In Turkey there are 2 main kinds of dolmas: 1-Zeytinyağlı dolma (Dolma with olive oil). The rice stuffing inside the vegetable is cooked with olive oil, currants and pine nuts. This is served could and can be eaten with a tiny squeeze of lemon juice. This is what you got for dinner. 2- Eli dolma (Dolma with meat) The second kind of dolma has a rice stuffing is with tomatoes, onions and meat. This kind of dolma is served warm. This time instead of lemon juice it is served with yoghurt, either on the side or on top or as cacık (yogurt with cucumbers and mint). I wish you guys a good trip.

[@alperkultur282]

I'm glad you guys tasted menemen for breakfast. It's my favorite breakfast meal.

Raki goes with fish of course and it must be watered :) You can try it in a fish restaurant in istiklal street with Traditional Turkish Music as a dinner :)

[@ortodonti]

Next time, There’s one thing I want from every tourist who come to İstanbul is to go around in the rich neighborhood (Bağdat Caddesi, Bebek..), I mean of course you guys wanna see the historical side of İstanbul but you’re also missing out so many beautiful things. And here’s my suggestions: you should have an open buffet breakfast in “Küçük Çamlıca Tepesi” (also visit Çamlıca Mosque) and in “Sarı Köşk - Emirgan Korusu”. You should absolutely visit “Yıldız Parkı” at this time of year (April-June). And there’s a huge and beatiful coast in Bostancı (right near Bağdat Caddesi) and finally you can enjoy the Amazing view of the third and newest bridge in İstanbul and of course the bosphorus if you can go to “Kuş Gözlem Kulesi (bird watching tower)” in Sarıyer. It goes on and on if you want to travel to İstanbul again dig more because there is a lot left believe me :D or I can make a short list about places or things to eat in İstanbul, if you need it just write me..

Ok, salep is made from ground orchid roots (no flowers at all), cooked slowly (usually like 20 mins) in milk and with added sugar. Orchid roots are rich in starch, that is what makes the foam and the thickness. You are right to taste ice cream because it is also used in vanilla ice cream. Salep is generally not a breakfast beverage but, why not? The bread seems like a whole wheat, sour dough bread to me, comes usually with added various seeds. Tavuk gögsü is actually like 10% real chicken breast meat, the rest is regular vanilla pudding. Breast meat is very lean and when added enough sugar, you wouldn't taste it, but you can feel it between your teeth. Dolma you had is "biber dolma" which means stuffed peppers. There are a wide range of dolma in Turkish cuisine so it is better to call them by their names. The one you had was cold because it is the olive oil "zeytinyagli) version of it. Almost all dolma varieties can also be prepared with meat stuffing and those are served hot. Turkish ravioli is a very wrong name. It is called "manti" and it is something totally apart from ravioli. I know people tend to call it Turkish ravioli but is is very wrong IMHO. It is more common to decorate mezes and menemen with parsley and it is what it looks like to me. Maybe it is dill, what do I know? I am Turkish. I hope you ad fun in Istanbul!

[@gorky7082]

şakşuka (shakshouka) is a different meal prepared with aubergine. Thi meal that you ate is "menemen"

[@DKTrickster]

As a Turk, I've never heard about Tavuk Gögsü desert. But I'm assuming it would be a nice desert post workout since it should hold a decent amount of protein. Right? By the way, if you haven't tried it yet, give Iskender and Beyti a chance. Iskender is döner kebap on bread with yoghurt and a special tomato sauce. Beyti is adana kebap rolled in flatbread and also has yoghurt and the same tomato sauce with it. Give it a shot and thank me later!

[@Y_Not1]

Hello everyone, love this one!

We are hospitable people and you should definitely try to taste Turkish foods. We have a lot of kind foods.

I definately recommend you to try "kazandibi" which is similar to "tavuk gogsu" in density and milk taste, but is also has bitter burn taste and the dessert's name comes from this conscious burning while cooking it.

[@ArchiTechFit]

You should also try Kazandibi-Tavuk Göğsü ...Similar to TG but 😍😍😍. I might eat 1 kilogram of it...And Badem Ezmesi of Edirne (sweet) Edirne is the name of the city. (Also famous with Edirne ciğer(liver) tava 😍😋) Once it was the capitol of Ottoman Empire. That Almond ezme(mushed) is a kind if helva from palace kitchen. There were 300 something kinds of helvas in Ottoman cuisine they say... Long stories. The thing is, in Ottoman times sugary stuff was not easy to find. Anywhere i mean same for europe palaces. But those ruling elites were able to eat sugary things. Main dishes were sugary too. Thats why what we consider desert today were most probably just normal dish for them. Thus i think tavuk göğsü was not a desert but main dish for sultans and their crowded families with 88 wives 888 children... But for normal citizens it was different as you can imagine. Some experts-historians-gourme kind of chefs etc explain these stuff better than me...it's just a youtube comment. Don't expect more...😉 By the way there must be hundred other kinds of mantı, tens of dolma recipes. Some dolmas are eaten hot with garlic yoghurt, some are cold(cooked with olive oil). Cold dolmas are consumed mostly at 5 o'clock with tea. Tea in the morning tea in the afternoon in the evening, at night, with neighbours, without neighbours.. you know how it is😁 Good luck with your adventures of interesting local food... PS: Another hint to understand by the way...Türkiye has 7 regions and each region has different cuisine ...kind of... But every city has different cuisine too. At the same time, some recipes are common for every region but have some nuances. Add one ingredient, coom some other way. And they name it differently sometimes... That's why it's a bit confusing for foreigners to figure out what exactly belongs to Turkish cuisine. What you find in Istanbul are mostly just commercialized versions of original cuisines of 7 different regions... See? They are just entrepreneurs who commercialized original recipes. Deep research, a good written book might be helpful i should say.

Take care.. next time, tell us when did you visit your various tours and countries and please spell both of your names, I could not hear you well... and give us the prices of food you eat... both in Turkish currency and the equivalent in USD - Also there is a warm or hot version of the DOLMA and it should be eaten with plain Yogurt, like most dishes in Turkey are eaten with Yogurt.. Turks love their plain Yogurt.. .and there is also a version with stuffed grape vine leaves with the same things the Dolma you ate has in it...
