Istanbul, Türkiye - Welcome to Istanbul, one of the most fascinating, historical, and delicious cities in the world. Today I’ll be taking you on an ultimate Turkish street food tour in Istanbul - you can expect some iconic street foods and some unseen surprises!

Here are the places we ate in this tour:

📍Galata Simitçisi (https://maps.app.goo.gl/21CJNCCZZ4FMSB9YA) - You can’t come to Istanbul without trying simit, a common ring shaped bread that you’ll find at bakeries and street food carts throughout the city.

📍Çiğ Köfteci Seyfettin Usta (https://maps.app.goo.gl/u6i4Fj4LEpNRhZSJA) - One of my absolute favorite Turkish foods is Çiğ Köfte, that includes raw meat, bulgur, and lots of spices.

📍Dürümcü Raif Usta (https://maps.app.goo.gl/xkrWpGzZeSoByJQCA) - Turkey is the king of kebabs and a durum is a grilled kebab served wrapped in bread so it’s often fast and on the go.

📍Tarihi Eminönü Derya Balıkçısı 1945 (https://maps.app.goo.gl/qq2h2opz347XSv3v8) - Probably the most iconic of all Turkish street foods in Istanbul is the balik ekmek, a grilled fish sandwich still served on a boat on the Golden Horn.

📍Beşaltı Kirvem Tantuni (https://maps.app.goo.gl/Sbf1E4iCwXEg1wB97) - It’s hard to find anything tastier than tantuni!

📍Tekrartekrarr Bay Köfte (https://maps.app.goo.gl/GkhSxeCbeQyJWP6z6) - This was something totally unique and that I’d never seen before, an ultimate cheese overdose, and so good!

📍Sokak pilavcısı (https://maps.app.goo.gl/sKCn3GwgLJFa72q2A) - Another popular Istanbul street food is rice and chickpeas with shredded chicken, and you’ll find it all over the city.

📍Midyeci Erkan (https://maps.app.goo.gl/bfvrVjSiiwJdkAne8) - If you love mussels, midye dolma are a dream come true. They go down so easily and are so addictive!

Istanbul is a street food paradise, and I hope this video will give you some ideas for what to eat when you’re there!
