[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks so much mate- hos bulduk! We always love visiting Turkey- it’s a spectacular place. Hope you enjoyed this video, thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena

Can’t believe the quality of the video production. Never stop. Love you guys!

[@ChasingaPlate]

😍😍😍😍 thanks so much for your lovely words mate! So happy you are enjoying our content. Thanks for watching and commenting 😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@MsKestrela]

Oh, man....you knocked it out of the park on this one! The beef wrap/sandwich looked ok, but the cooking method and pan were really interesting. The sheep head was spectacular. All the various 'bits and bobs', and the seasonings looked amazing! You can tell that the chef/butcher has cracked into a good number of heads. For me, though the mezze meal was the show-stopper. That is my style of eating, and every dish looked so fresh, and well-prepared. Good food, friendly people, and a pretty and interesting city...I can see why you would want an extended stay there. If I'm ever able to travel again, Istanbul and Tokyo are vying for top of the list of places to go. If I never recover enough to travel, at least I can tag along virtually with the sweetest couple in the world.

[@ChasingaPlate]

☺️☺️☺️☺️ so happy to have you tag along until you can get to these places yourself MsKestrela- and even though we hope you continue to tag along 😍 oh gosh meze is just a wonderful way to eat- I love all the varying textures and flavours. That parsley salad was especially wonderful. Loved watching that sheep’s head getting broken down- gosh it was delicious. Thanks for watching and commenting- have a great rest of your week 😘 Cheers, Sheena

[@denizbluemusic]

as someone from mersin, i got really excited when i saw tantuni

I have literally been binge watching your channel for the last two days I really enjoy your videos and the effort you put in to your research in order to find authentic local food.

[@ayanahmedov8498]

I really loved that you know quite good about what locals do. Especially, raki, hamsi fish, mezes combined with other see foods and enjoying it. And even shirdan, which even I as a Turk only tested it once in my life(it was only populer in Adana until recent years). Keep up the good work and I hope you enjoyed your visit in Turkey. I'll be looking forward for your jornies in other countries. Cheers!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write mate! We always love our visits to Turkey and exploring the food culture is such a joy! We hope on our next visit we can see more of the country 😄 hope you enjoy what we have coming up on the channel mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@orhanyokus1921]

There is nothing i like more than kazandibi. The flavour the texture is just amazes me.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Us too! And it’s sooo tasty! We love all the milk puddings in Turkey 🤤 thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena

[@S-T-E-V-E]

Love that Turkish tea, I used to live near a great Turkish place and they served that tea at the end of every meal.

[@ChasingaPlate]

It’s the perfect ending to a meal! They are tea fanatics the Turks- we love just stopping for a cuppa a few times a day when we’re in Istanbul and watching the world go by. Cheers, Sheena

[@TurkumCaliskanim]

One of the best, if not the best video series about food in Istanbul, you rock guys, keep it up!

[@FoodandFootprints]

So much precision cutting out all that meat from the sheep’s head.

[@ChasingaPlate]

It was so cool to watch!! 😍

[@mustafasinana5238]

Thank you guys to representing the rich turkish cuisine! We had completely forgot to drank Boza at our last holidays! Thanks to reminding me 🥰 I wish you all the best for the future greetings from Germany! 😁

[@ChasingaPlate]

A big hello to you in Germany mate! Thanks for watching and commenting 😄 oh gosh boza is so tasty- we will definitely return for more when we’re back in Istanbul. Hope you get a taste of it soon too 🙌 hope you enjoy the rest of our Istanbul series mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@mustafasinana5238]

Oh, thank you very much! 😊 Yes of course, I’m still watching the videos. Food is love and I am absolutely overwhelmed with what a passion you both describe all these meals! Çok teşekkürler Chasing a Plate 🙌❤️!!!!

😍😍😍 we adore Turkey- Turkish hospitality is unparalleled- we always meet so many amazing people when we visit and filming there is such a joy. So happy you are enjoying our videos mate! 😄

[@Rebecca-dm5ul]

Lordy, so glad you liked the roasted lambs head. Grew up eating them. Delicious with a squeeze of lemon. The puddings were interesting, see a future visit to Istanbul. That meze was incredible. Yes yes yes please talk about the marinated fish and the other dishes not shown. That juicy wrap and version in bread, broke me had to make a shredded steak sandwich for me and a wrap for River. Ummm don't judge added tinned anchovies to the mix. Happy travels. Another great vlog. Can't wait for your NY posts

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Rebecca! Lemon would have been perfect with that plate 🤤 oh gosh that meze was fantastic- loved that smoked fish- the yellow sauce was like a light mayo. Everything was just so tasty- the cabbage and silver beet was nice and tangy and that salad 😍 epic!! So happy you enjoyed this one- that sarnie sounds absolutely delicious! And anchovies in any form whoop!! Thanks for watching you two 😘 Cheers, Sheena

[@FoodandFootprints]

Love Turkish rice pudding! That nice skin on top with the cinnamon and pairs so well with the tea

[@ChasingaPlate]

How good is that skin. We can’t get enough 🤤

[@yusufeliyaylayogurdu4838]

Turkish food. Meats, lots of it. Fresh materials. And beautiful herbs and spices. All devoured by Sheena and Thomas. Whoopp whoop.

I was hoping you will try tavuk göğsü, chicken pudding, in your series. So I'm happy to see that you did! It's delicious!

[@ChasingaPlate]

It’s so unique!! We loved it! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena

[@barbarosdogan4064]

işte bu rakı meze yapan başka yurtdışından gelmiş yemek videosu yapan yok bravo ... Bravo. I liked your drinking raki. very nice video

[@ChasingaPlate]

We love raki SO much! And meze! Well, just the entire Turkish food culture really 😍 Hope we can return soon. Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you like the rest of our Turkey videos. Cheers, Sheena

[@munozcampos]

Similar to Mexican cuisine, ive bern to Turkey when I was in the military and felt like home food and culturally👌

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thats neat that you got to visit and enjoyed the food. We loved both countries so much. Thanks for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@zeynacasas9294]

First of all congrats you might be the first outlanders who can drink raki and like it. Also you did it right, most people dont like it because they drink it without pouring cold water and ice. Also it is not beer, it needs meze with it to drink. You should try Kalamar if you go there again as my favourite meze, and Kokorec in a good restaurant. Love your videos 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi zeyna casas, oh gosh raki and meze are a match made in heaven- we love it so much 😍 Mmm Kalamar, will definitely add it to the meze menu next time! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, so happy you are enjoying our Istanbul content. Cheers, Sheena

[@abroadnamedashley6801]

I love all of the colors of the mezze! I love how you introduce us to new cultures through food! My mouth is watering! lol IDK if I would be brave enough to try the roasted sheep head though! Love your videos guys, keep it upppppppp

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks so much for watching mate! Meze is the best 😄😍 hahaha that roasted sheep’s head was great- loved how we just sat in that butchers shop to eat it. Thanks for taking the time to comment, so glad you’re enjoying the content. Cheers, Sheena

[@FoodandFootprints]

Those anchovies look amazing! And even better that they are so fresh from being in season

[@ChasingaPlate]

They were amazing!!! So well cooked and so fresh! - T 😀

[@yunus6234]

Kazandibi is actually just a milk pudding with a crust. The one with chicken is called tavukgöğsü (chicken breast) and doesn't have a burnt crust. But maybe the Lokanta where you were combined the two desserts😄

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Yunus Urhan, thanks for watching and commenting! Back in the Ottoman era the palace kitchens made kazandibi with chicken breast as it was the bottom of the pan used to make tavukgogsu 😄 this lokanta uses a super traditional recipe and follows that history 😄 Hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena

[@yunus6234]

Nice to know🤔 so the kazandibi I know is just a fake☹️😅 I'll definitely go there for the real one now😋

[@arborinfelix]

Small correction the chicken puddings name is not "kazandibi" but "tavuk gögüsü" the name tavuk gögüsü means literary chicken breast. Kazandibi is a variation of puddings you can order. Kazan dibi can be translated as the "bottom of the pot". The bottom part of the pot means that it will be caramelized after it's made. Therefore the chicken breast pudding has a brown color on top. When I order mine I order it the regular way (plain white) with cinnamon on top of it. By the way it's a great video.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Awesome information, thanks so much 😍 It was such a delicious pudding! Can’t wait to return to Turkey one day soon to eat more of it! Thanks for watching 😍 Cheers, Sheena

[@nataknatakov9842]

The best food Turkish food👍👍🥇

[@ChasingaPlate]

Love the food in Turkey. Thanks for watching. Thomas

[@theasdazx]

As a turkish, I was so suprised you tried sheep head, tongue and cheeks. Not many turkish ppl like those. The smeel to me is just horrible so I never tried eating it. Seriosly did you like it or just being kind to not to offend us :D kokoreç and tantuni is awesome though. Hope you enjoyed your stay.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi theasdazx, thanks for watching and commenting! We seriously like sheep's head- and cow's head for that matter- we're eating a lot of it in Mexico at the moment 😀 But if we had to choose we'd take kelle sogus over kelle tandir- we love the cleaner flavour. Hope you enjoy our other Istanbul videos mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@serkanmutlu2840]

Love Turkey ❤️❤️🇹🇷🇹🇷

[@ChasingaPlate]

Us too Serkan Mutlu- we love the food and culture and the locals are some of the most generous and welcoming we have ever met on on our travels 😍 Hope you enjoyed this video! Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena

[@FoodandFootprints]

Love how they soak the bread with all those meat juices and the spices with it!

[@ChasingaPlate]

It’s the best! Why waste those juices right? 🤤 thanks for watching and commenting guys! Cheers, Sheena

[@brilliantbutblue]

That sheeps head experience was so unusual and l cant help but think why? But hey why not!! I love the concept of eating in a Butcher's shop, who better to know meat than the experts themselves. You can have my plate of chicken milk pudding that one messes with my head, although it looked beautiful and fluffy. The star of the vid has got to be the Meze! And how much Sheenas face lit up with the word "Drink" 🤣. No BS from you guys you do love Meze as seen by your at home meals in Lockdown in NZ. Stunning selection of dishes, colours, textures and the Anchovies! That was a show stopper. 👍

[@ChasingaPlate]

Gosh both the sheep’s heads we had in Istanbul were brilliant we were so glad we were there for a number of weeks so we could go back again after filming for these meals again. The mezze also was the best. Again we managed to make it back there for another meal after filming. Such a great spread. The pudding has no chicken taste at all. Just tastes like a milk pudding. Very yum. I really like the burnt top. Can’t get enough of that style of pudding when we’re in Istanbul (lots of very similar ones with chicken can be found also). Thanks for the support and thanks for watching this one! Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@S-T-E-V-E]

Turkish make the best street food and they're the best barbers, Great idea for a restaurant! Order your food get a haircut and shave while its being cooked, sit down to eat a chicken kebab after, finished with tea! Genius! lol

[@ChasingaPlate]

They’d make a fortune 😄

[@kuriyamatidusflossy]

Tantuni is my favorite

[@ChasingaPlate]

Soooo good! That place does an amazing version also. Thanks for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀

Yes, coming from New Zealand, we are lucky with the exchange rate. It was great being able to stay in Istanbul for 2 months on this visit. We loved it! Mmmm kazandibi- it's so tasty! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena

[@kimlend7680]

Watching this in late night is not the best idea, i'm dying now... You guys killed me with the cheek meat. Also i'm sure you guys had "köfte" - meatball before. But, if you guys want to try it again, you should look for the places that makes köfte with cheek meat in it. Its not that common anymore since it became like-fastfood, but there are some places still make köfte with cheek meat in it. Its the classical way or classical recipe. Its way more juicy and soft.

[@ChasingaPlate]

😍😍😍😍😍 no way! How come we have never heard of this magic??!! 😆 we both love cheek meat so that kind of köfte would be right up our alley! We’ll definitely search for it the next time we’re in town. Thanks for the heads up mate! Hope you enjoyed this series, thanks for watching and commenting 😄 Cheers, Sheena

If you fell into the mighty pit of melon and cheese, try watermelon and cheese the same way for the next time. That one doesn't necessarily have to be with rakı, mostly we just have it pretty much anytime during summer.

Hi Sinny Awesome, thanks for watching and for your lovely words. I reckon brain is the one offal that people find the hardest to eat.

I'm sure you realized that cheek meat is the one of most delicious part of sheep, calf or any fatling, also if you not tasted yet, tongue is also one of most delicious part of it. I guess you're not in Turkey for now, but still welcome and hope to see you again. Greetings.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Ah cheek meat and tongue- our favourite bits! We’ve been eating a lot of it in tacos as we’re in Mexico at the moment. This was such a great day of eating in Istanbul. We can’t wait to return to see more of Turkey. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed the video 😄 Cheers, Sheena

Nice Turkey series! Am loving them. I love tavuk göğsü tatlısı and usually it's just served white with no caramelisation, so it was interesting that the kazandibi had chicken in there (which I could see it did because of the strings) - kazandibi is usually known as being chicken-free. Looove both though 😄 Thanks again for taking us along with you.

Hi Peony Pink, thanks so much for watching and commenting! So happy you are enjoying this series mate. This lokantası is pretty traditional so they make the kazandibi from the bottom of the tavuk göğsü tatlısı. So they produce the two puddings from the same pan. It was soooo tasty- we love both too. Hope you enjoy the content we have coming up mate! Cheers, Sheena

@@ChasingaPlate ohh, I see. Yumm!

[@cerensahin9938]

I am happy for you guys that you liked these deserts but I strongly recommend for you to go try it in another place. Because it seems like that the owners of this place just were too lazy to prepre kazandibi the right way. Because usually kazandibi would not contain any chickenbreast and it totally differs from tavukgogusu in preparation, taste and texture wise. But you are really doing a good job researching the dishes and restaurants and keep up the great work 😊

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Ceren Sahin, this is so interesting as all the Turkish resources I read prior to filming this piece mentioned how kzandibi is prepared from the bottom of the tavuk göğsü tatlısı pan and so it does contain chicken breast. And this lokantası is really famous for its puddings- it wasn't just any old place that we found. I am puzzled by all the contrasting information 😝 Thanks so much for the kind words mate! Cheers, Sheena

[@cerensahin9938]

@@ChasingaPlate Well I am not a local but I am turkish and have been to Istanbul and other turkish cities a hundred times before, and have never eaten kazandibi made out of the same pudding base as tavukgogusu. And I noticed that most of your turkish followers also wondered about why it contains chicken breast, because it usually won't. I am not saying that this restaurant is a scam or something but it felt just odd to me. And yes in reference to the name kazandibi really means bottom of the pan or pot, but not because they use the leftover tavukgogusu in the bottom of the pot but because it looks like burnt. They poor sugar on it and caramalize untill it looks allmost like a dish from a burnt pot that's why it's called that name. But who knows maybe the original way to prepare kazandibi was like what they told you but we people just don't know about it anymore because other places prepare it different now. But on the other hand I'm pretty sure that it's gotta be the way I told you because I just don't remember to have eaten any kazandibi with chicken breast in it. And trust me I'm telling the truth because kazandibi is the first thing that I eat I Turkey regarding to the fact that allmost no turkish restaurant serves it here in Germany because of the hard and long preparation process.

[@SuzyGrowsMyBiz]

Another amazing vid guys. Educational, fun, entertaining love you guys! I want to try the sheep's head too, this one looked more appetizing then the boiled one. Those puddings looked really good with that burnt sugar top, mmm. I don't know how you guys do it. You always show us the best local eats and are not focused on click bate like some vloggers.

Loving this latest vid guys! Owh the blooper 🤣🤣 be careful with ur steps 🤣🤣. I fall in love with both milk puddings, they look so delicious! What? Sheep brain & tongue? Bring it on! I like the mezze concept where u can leisurely enjoy ur big spread of meal 😋😋. I'm intrigued with the yellow sauce fish dish.. what does it taste like guys, is it spicy/ tangy lemony? Great vid again Thomas & Sheena. Take care & cheers! 💜💚 Edit: I spelled mezze as maze! SMH 🤣🤣

[@ChasingaPlate]

😂😆 so glad you enjoyed this one Ar Em! Omg it was all sooooo tasty! That fish dish was so good- the sauce was like a light mayo- slightly tangy but now overwhelming. Such a fun day of filming! Thanks for watching and commenting mate! Have a great week 😘 Cheers, Sheena

Boiled sheep's head is undeniably superior.
