Kapsalon is a Dutch dish, try to find it in Turkey. Its like the Indische Rijsttafel you dont find it in Indonesia. A Turkish pizza is called Lahmacun.

[@apveening]

You may not find it in Turkey (I wouldn't bet on it), but you will find it in a lot of other countries. nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kapsalon_(gerecht) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kapsalon

[@frankhooper7871]

I've always seen it as lahmacun (with various spellings) here in England.

[@dutchman7623]

Yep! it is Dutch... Belgium at the bottom, Turkey to cover it, Dutch excuse (salad veggies), Indonesia with its sambal, French sauce, Gouda cheese on top, gratin French style... Fusion cuisine Dutch style!

[@ixyzyxi]

Döner kebab is invented by a German Turk, in Turkey you’ll only find the sis kebab

[@zeynepyazici9618]

​@@ixyzyxiI don't want to sound rude but it seems you didn't visit Türkiye. Because we use kebab as a more general term. There are tons of different kebabs around the country. Even every city has their own kebab. Actually şiş kebap wouldn't be considered as a proper kebab since it's mostly made with chicken 😂.

[@FaiT90]

This is why the Turkish people are always so happy after they eat food! As a dutchie im a big fan of Turkish food too, my kcal app a little less, but hey what can you do about it.

Pretty good beach around the corner as well (also nudist section) might want to have a cup of tea at Futureland if you ever make it there and do the boat tour of the reclaimed land part of the rotterdam port area.

[@SlaytanicMetalFace]

Bruh at my place they have crispy fried chicken in kapsalon or spicy dragon(sambal and peanut sauce 🥜 🥵🔥) and even a Greek version with tzasiki and feta cheese 🧀 🤤

[@VeniVidiAjax]

The tomato paste is usually ground veal, bellpeper and tomato and some herbs finely cut and basically mashed into a paste.

[@irbaboon1979]

Ayran you should drink with a proper Iskender kebab on a hot day, the salt and yoghurt compliment the meat, cut the fat and if it’s hot it also adds a nice cold dimension. Ayran just rocks during summer, so many great food memories from my months of working in Istanbul for a Turkish TV operator :) tip: shake it until really frothy.

[@buncharted]

i will definitely be trying this!

[@buncharted]

@deebee2603 i’ve never heard of people drinking buttermilk in the US, only cooking with it

[@SlaytanicMetalFace]

A proper iskender is hard to find. Recently got one and it was just pizza crust with fries and doner thrown together with tomato saus. And a arayn on the side. Very very disappointing 😞. If you guys want good freaking kebab you should visit Germany 🇩🇪 kebab is way better over there. The meat,the saus, the bread. Everything basically 😅

[@TurquazCannabiz]

@@SlaytanicMetalFacethere are no fries in iskender kebab lol

The kapsalon is the best food when you're drunk! My friends and I had a lot of Turkish food after a night out.

[@aydinbiber7616]

As a half-dutch half-turkish person I gotta correct you. Kapsalon is Dutch, not Turkish. Invented in The Netherlands and you can't really find it in Turkey.

[@arddenouter4553]

That would be a "broodje fijn" - shoarma met brood en heel veul knoflooksaus.

[@nantarchia]

My suggestion to you friends is to take an Istanbul Street Food tour immediately when the Turkish economy is living the worst years of it's history. There is a huge difference between the Turkish food you eat in Europe and the food you eat in Turkey. These are all Europish way of Turkish Foods. There must be only cheese in the Gözleme. Döner and Kebab are two different things. In Turkiye we only put meat and some salad in Döner and also Dürüm. German based Döner is all around Europe and that's why they put too much stuff like sauce to make it a greasy form which is not healthy. Dürüm does not contains meatballs Etc.

A well prepared kapsalon where the fries are a bit crunchy, the meat is juicy, and the vegetable/lettuce mix is fresh, is such a big comfort food of mine. I only get one once every few months at most, but every time I do I love it. :)

[@hantek1]

Thanks for the video, it's great to see people from other cultures taste foreign food ☺If I might, I just wanted to give my opinion about these 'Turkish' food: - Typically the gözleme is made with spinach and white (feta) cheese, or a spicy potato mash mixture. As a Turkish guy who lived there for 24 years, I personally never had a gözleme with sucuk and eggs. - The döner schotel (porsiyon döner in Turkish) will typically just be served with some wraps or some kind of rice (white rice or bulgur), grilled veggies and salad, not with french fries. - The broodje döner will normally be served in another type Turkish bread, but at some shops you can find this type of round bread too which is usually called 'gobit'. The ingredients are mostly more simple and Turkish people definitely don't use any garlic sauce. Usually it's served with tomatoes, lettuce, onion, pickles. Sometimes they add some kind of tomato sauce or ketchup and sometimes mayonnaise. That is also the case for dürüm döner. There is though a certain style of döner which is called Hatay or Antakya style which is usually served in a wrap and includes fries, some vegetables, tomato sauce and garlic mayo. - Falafel is originally from Lebanon, in Türkiye there are not many places where you can find falafel. But in the last years with the refugees from Syria, there are a few more falafel shops which are opened in Türkiye. - The kapsalon is indeed invented in the Netherlands and 999/1000 döner shop owners in Türkiye haven't even heard about this dish and it's almost impossible to find in Türkiye. Thanks for reading! ❤

[@buncharted]

thank you - this is very insightful yes, the video is all about turkish food in the netherlands. hence the inclusion of kapsalon and italian pizza 😂 we hope to visit türkiye someday to explore this actual authentic turkish cuisine!

[@BeamerHD]

The Netherlands as well as Belgium too, same story with the labour shortage and Turkish people coming to help. Their food is 1 of the most common fast foods over here in Belgium too.

[@corneisgewoonsupertof]

The best food at 5am after a night heavy partying. I always buy two kapsalons, one for the morning after

[@piusx906]

I lived next to a Turkish restaurant in Rotterdam, and my favorite Turkish dish is Adana Kebab. But who am I, if you step on my foot my mouth goes open. I eat everything. I also lived in Delfshaven for a few years nearby Nataniël Gomes (the creator of kapsalon) his shoarma place. He was a really cool guy that tragically passed away last year at the age of 47.

[@bartvschuylenburg]

It’s funny how they adjusted their food to Dutch taste. If you eat döner in Germany it contains a lot more salt. (Though Germans are almost religious about döner as if it’s their own traditional food) Yup, I prefere the Dutch döner.

[@buncharted]

yeah the turkish food situation is very different in germany which is super interesting!

[@3choblast3r4]

I'm not someone that complains about "cultural appropriation" ever but there is no other way to describe German attitude towards Doner. Literally every single German I've ever met is convinced that Doner was actually invented in Germany. When in reality, Doner existed for hundreds of years before Turks ever moved to Germany. Before the 18 hundreds it was roasted horizontally, till some chef in Bursa came up with the brilliant idea to do it vertically because it keeps the meat more moist (the fats melt over the meat). Doner has always been sold in both restaurants as a proper meal and as fast food etc. There are three German arguments I've heard. First one: Doner doesn't exist in Turkey, only in touristy places, it was completely invented in Germany (lol). Two, Doner was invented in Germany and spread to Turkey (lol). Lastly: Yes, sure, Doner existed before. But it was Germany that reinvented it as fast food and put it in between bread with condiments. All three of these are false. But I've had Germans get incredibly offended when they mentioned how they invented doner and I pointed out that wasn't true.

[@kemkopi]

The meat in German snack bars is of way better quality, and more often than in the Netherlands they make their own durum wraps.

[@Juliussezerr]

We go again with the dutch people claiming its a dutch dish 😂. Its sold here but its not dutch food the guy wasnt even dutch him self who invented it

[@ShadowDrakken]

So much delicious looking food! Can't wait to visit Netherlands!

[@Sanquinity]

A lot of "our food" is indeed delicious. I put that in quotes, because most of the recipes were taken from other countries, and adapted to our own tastes afterwards. :P Which I guess could be expected since we've been one of the main ports of the world and a hub for a lot of world trade for a long time now, due to our central location.

[@ShadowDrakken]

@@Sanquinity that's fair. That's going to be true in most wealthier countries I think, because we have higher imports, more immigration, and unfortunately, more colonialism.

[@marky046]

You can make DIY kapsalon with frozen frikandellen. Use a cheese slicer to cut slices from the frozen frikandellen and use those instead of kebab. (you do still want to heat them up ofcourse). Pizza from a Turkish spot beats any chain restaurant like Dominos or NY Pizza btw. It's almost half the price, they bake their pizzas properly (so no half baked slab of floppy dough) and you get decent toppings. Id say you covered all of the essentials though

[@ShineSpark88]

Hell no, using frikandel is not the same as using doner.

[@zeynepyazici9618]

As a Turkish who grew up in Türkiye, I would recommend you visit Türkiye. I always feel if you want to experience something you should go it's home. Different countries have different preferences so foods changes over place to place. For example you won't be able to find kapsalon in Türkiye. Actually it's totally a Holland-Turkish food 😅 On the other hand I think it would be interesting to compare the taste between Netherlands and Türkiye.😊

[@Megalodon1986]

Absolutely, for the real deal Turkish food you need to go to Turkiye, but this is a pretty good alternative living in the Netherlands ;-)

[@dominiek1525]

Kapsalon essentially is fries overloaded with toppings and sauce. Similar dishes exist elsewhere like "Julienke" just across the border in Flanders or "Poutine" in Canada. Another contender from the Netherlands is "patatje oorlog". You could review them all ;-)

I always found it weird when you order a 'rollo' (durum) with sauce, they heat it, with the sauce on it ! Mayo, garlic mayo, andalouse, samoerai sauce etc are cold sauces, not made to warm them up.

You dont eat kapsalon hungover, you eat it in the middle of the night when youre drunk :P Oh and the "spicy sauce" is called sambal, its a south-asian recipe that is ground red pepper, a bit of salt and sugar and a lot of vinegar.

[@theBabyDead]

Actually the turkish don't use sambal. Not here, anyway. I forgot the proper name for it right now ... actually, I just remembered, it's called harrissa or however you write it. It's their own type of sambal. It's much better, imo. Then again these guys live up north so it might not be the same.

The dish was created in 2002 when Dutch - Cape Verdean barber Nataniël "Tati" Gomes (1976-2023), who was also the owner of a hair salon (kapsalon) on the Rotterdam Schiedamseweg, had a lunch dish put together at the shawarma shop "El Aviva" in the same street, the recipe he created was made from all his favorite ingredients.The dish caught so much attention of the clients of the barber as well as the that within the next year 2003 it became a nationally recognized dish and it grew out to become an actual national dish in the years following, it is now officially Rotterdam heritage and technically it is a Cape-Verdean-Turkish-Dutch dish!.

You might not see this comment but! , As a Turk born in The Netherlands and raised here i would like to do a little reccomendation . The Turkish food scene here is a wreck its mostly dominated by people who love to sell cheap meat to tourists or Dutch people who dont know the ''authentic'' taste of the real deal so they just eat it as long as you put enough sauce on it to mask the taste . If you want to eat good Turkish ''street food '' style food here in the Netherlands i would reccomend the restaurants the Syrians opened here . Its 99% the same as Turkish food and its still more authentic since those people have not yet been here for to long . Damas in The hague's gouverneurlaan is 1 of my favorite and they have a bakkery right across the street that has some off menu bangers like there falafel wraps . Maxima in the Zeehelden kwartier has some top tier doner kebab where they have actually good quality meat for both chicken and beef . On the erasmusweg you have a wooden shack where the guy sells doner kebab that he stacks himself each day fresh not factory made which i also recommend .

With the exception of the pizza I would also put them all on the same level. I'm not big on vegetables but in a kebab or durum it just works.

[@Evertb1]

In general I would say that if you eat a dish with a foreign origin you have a big chance that the dish is altered from it's original due to local circumstances like the local taste and the availability of ingredients. Look at Indonesian restaurants or Chinese restaurants in the Netherlands. The dishes there are adapted for the Dutch taste. If you appreciate the dishes as they are presented there is no problem with that of course but some times they don't really compare good with the originals.

This is really interresting, and to me, surpricing. Wherever you go in Europe (Scandinavia, Benelux, Germany, Austria etc etc) you will find Turkish take-aways (type Doner Kebab) but also sit down restaurants with fantastic food. What makes it so surpricing to me is that YOU never came across it before you moved to Europe. Here it is staple food almost on the whole continent... however, you have missed some amazing Turkish food. Among the fast food you might find 'Kofte'. Minced meat on a stick with LOADS of herbs. It might sound abit basic, but the herbs lift the meat to new hights. If you happens to have a jar of 'Ajvar' to dip them in, you just entered food heaven. (In former Yugoslavia they have a version called Chivapchichi... even more wonderful). . In Turkish restaurants you can also get a kind of breakfast you NEVER tasted before. Its a BIG bowl of something that looks like tomato soup, but it is so full of flavor that you can't even work out just what is in there... and then you eat that with bread from the stone oven. It will fill you up really well, but you will not feel over-full as you might feel after a lot of 'western' breakfasts.

I love how you’re reviewing this döner kebab fastfood as if it’s Michelin star quality lol 😂

[@buncharted]

haha there's a time and a place for everything

[@katchaontheflipside]

Btw. Always get the shoarma instad of the döner. Shoarma is so much better.

Kapsalon you only eat after getting drunk at the club, party or bar and eat it like 4 or 5 am 😂😂

[@Scirzo]

I just had dinner and started watching this and now I want to have a lahmacun...😂

[@gieweh1136]

hmmm a tasty kapsalon, wich translates to hairsaloon / barber shop

[@zwollewood]

om de vrijdag. kapsalon of turke pizze met kabap. dan ga je goed het weekend in🎉

[@abatisSon]

Turkish drinks are probiotic. If the food is very delicious, it becomes healthy with probiotic drinks. Ayran, turnip juice, boza, kefir, pickle juice, etc. Their taste may seem unusual when you first drink it, but you will like it in the long run because they are very healthy. Lahmacun is not a Turkish pizza, it is in a different category. Also, the first pizza you show is a normal pizza, only made the Turkish way. Our closest dish to pizza is pita, which has an elongated oval appearance, like a boat, rather than a round one. There is a big difference between the Turkish food you eat abroad and the food you eat in Turkey. Please come to our country and try it again. You will not regret it. Thank you for the video.

Kapsalon is not Turkish, the real story behind this kapsalon comes from Rotterdam... a turkish restaurant was located next to a barbershop and one of the barbers was getting his food from this restaurant day in day out..he asked the restaurant if they can make him something so he could eat it fast: a bowl of meat with fries on top and veggies with sauces aka the kapsalon...the reason this restaurant called his creation a kapsalon because the dutch name for barber is kapsalon and because of the this guy its called kapsalon...so the barber invented the kapsalon. Now you all know the truth behind the kapsalon...btw its nasty i mean how likes wet fries soaked with garlicsauce and sambal with warm lettuce...i mean come on

[@matthewrada5576]

I love it

[@jasmikko]

Turkish cuisine is my favorite. Thanks for this

[@ElsaDewitt]

You can have it all, lol.

[@momo2719]

Kapsalon is from Rotterdam the Netherlands it was find out around 20 years ago 😉

[@Jim023]

Imagine that if you go to a turkish doner shop in america and you say hey can I please order a barbershop

[@lucasvanwijngaarden670]

I was about to angrily write a comment when you started talking about Heineken

[@buncharted]

😂😂😂

[@Genesizs]

Kapsalon is so disgusting it's like a trashcan of food imo, it's just everything mashed up in a tin bin, idk how that got so popular here but it did.

[@buncharted]

sort of like a stamppot 😂

[@EGO0808]

What ingredients did you forget in most of the dishes shown? “SAMBAL bij!”

[@NeoOnyx]

I'm a Dutch native and been living here all my life, but I can honestly say that I've never had any of the Turkish food you guys showed in the video. I've always wanted to try the kapsalon but the sheer amount of calories have kept me from getting it (which is kinda weird because I do eat shoarma schotels). It all looks yum, tho 😋

[@buncharted]

the kapsalon is super heavy but the doner broodje was a nice compromise :)

[@CrusterfunkShenanigans]

je mist wat als je geen kapsalon hebt geprobeert!!een goeie kapsalon laat je je 10 uur vol en gelukkig voelen.

[@TK-xz9ek]

Dan ben je zeker niet verder gekomen dan een AVG-tje 😂😂😂

[@Blackadder75]

kapsalon is horrible, but try adana kebab , which is delicious.

[@NeoOnyx]

@@TK-xz9ek Ik ben meer van de Italiaanse en Indonesische keuken, maar ik ga het zeker nog eens proberen 😊

[@makhauser42]

It's funny how kapsalon is from Rotterdam, but the best one you find in Sinbad in Amsterdam. P.S. Yes, trying to start a holy kapsalon war. Surely enough, there are good places to buy the dish all over the Netherlands, and you probably can't taste all to decide. Some local places in small towns make it in a really delicious way. Depends pretty much on the meat, components, and the sauce. Some add jalapeños to the dish for the spice

[@katikeller1120]

Kebap with pickeles are acctually more autentic than kebap with youghurt

[@Beun007]

Next time try broodje haring met slagroom! LOL!!!😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

[@mhjmstultiens]

To summarize: prijs kwaliteit is A+++ okay! :) EDIT: I see the yoghurt has a new fan. ;)

[@mrrizkhan3000]

the durum doner from the turkish place outside the rotterdam central station is the best one i have eaten in the netherlands. I think the place is called Konak. I have never been happier to have the NS cancel on me .

[@buncharted]

ive heard that!! i definitely want to go sometime
