Trying LOADED Kumpir Turkish Baked Potato in Istanbul, Turkey | Istanbul Street Food in Turkey

[@gripulsar9751]

you made incompatible choices. Kumpir is beautiful. Sausage with sauce, cabbage, corn, jalapeno, green olives, cheddar, butter, ketchup, mayonnaise are my favourites.

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Ooo that sounds a good combination!!

[@alexander63736]

AHHHH. I want this. Imma make it at home right now.

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Do it! Sooo good😋

Stay away from Ortaköy unless you want to eat at my favourite restaurant Banyan, which has quite nice Asian fusion food, and a fantastic view of the Bosphorus and the first bridge. Kumpir is a baked potato, and paying 5 USD for it is outrageous in a city where university educated people earn 400-600 USD a month. There is kumpir (and many other kinds of street food) to be had in other, less touristy areas of Istanbul! Try Eminönu, Üsküdar and Bakırköy, for example.

Ortaköy was very beautiful to see, but you're right it's extremely touristy. The kumpir is very expensive for what it is, but we wanted to try it while we were in the area ;) thanks for your comment!

[@ManmeetSingh-p2g]

Where are these stalls i mean in Ortaköy do we get to this place easily

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Yes they are very easy to find. They are close to the Grand Mecidiye Mosque (Ortaköy Mosque). Enjoy!!

[@our4feettravelers760]

wow it looks so good I want to try

[@HungryTwoTravel]

If you ever get the chance you must!!

[@paularound4876]

That's a huge snack!!

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Not bad eh!?

[@kitchenimposter3241]

Omg Canada needs baked potato stands!

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Right next to the beaver tails

[@travelleryildirim3013]

Nice Vlog but you make the fall that you let take everything inside … normaly you make 4-5 toppings and mixed than easyer with the hot cheesy potato ;)

[@HungryTwoTravel]

That makes more sense 😉 we just couldn't resist getting all the toppings!!

[@sailingyuvam]

It is necessary not to put so many different materials in the kumpir. I think the flavor is lost.

[@HungryTwoTravel]

That's possible, we went a little crazy on the toppings!!

[@tajaashikhayat1913]

VERY NICE

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Thank you!

[@faboste61]

All these kumpir stalls represent a football club and you choose for Trabzonspor which is a football club in Trabzon. Was that the reason you visited Trabzon after Istanbul or is that pure coincidence? : )

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Funnily enough that was pure coincidence! It wasn't until after when we looked back at the video that we realized which one we had picked 😄 good eye!!

[@ikiddyounot]

I’m with you, Chris - the potato skins are actually my favourite part of the potato, LOL. Glad you tried but unfortunately it sounded underwhelming compared to all your other Turkish eats!

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Yes! So glad you agree, the skin is always so good, especially if you slather it with some butter, yum!!

[@kayacenk4164]

they not added cheese they added butter

[@HungryTwoTravel]

They added both ;)

[@HungryTwoTravel]

They added both ;)

[@BnkexpressBE]

Weird toppings... always go for the hot mix...beans,meat,etc....

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Mmm yes good choices!

[@jsdf903]

The skin of the potato is the best part tho..?

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Have you ever had a baked potato in the oven?! Once you've eaten the inside, cover it with butter, best part ;)

[@oldklips]

I can`t understand. It`s only 2 dollars or 1,5 euro bro. How can u all say pricier more ...? I think no need to compare. Are u fickle?

[@HungryTwoTravel]

This video was filmed a month ago, and we are Canadian ;)

[@oldklips]

@@HungryTwoTravel 👍

[@kayacenk4164]

the kumpir only 2 dolar

[@HungryTwoTravel]

When we filmed this just over a week ago, 35TL was $5 CAD, we're Canadians ;)
