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 (maps.app.goo.gl/21CJNCCZZ4FMS...) - 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 (maps.app.goo.gl/u6i4Fj4LEpNRh...) - One of my absolute favorite Turkish foods is Çiğ Köfte, that includes raw meat, bulgur, and lots of spices.
📍Dürümcü Raif Usta (maps.app.goo.gl/xkrWpGzZeSoBy...) - 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 (maps.app.goo.gl/qq2h2opz347XS...) - 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 (maps.app.goo.gl/Sbf1E4iCwXEg1...) - It’s hard to find anything tastier than tantuni!
📍Tekrartekrarr Bay Köfte (maps.app.goo.gl/GkhSxeCbeQyJW...) - This was something totally unique and that I’d never seen before, an ultimate cheese overdose, and so good!
📍Sokak pilavcısı (maps.app.goo.gl/sKCn3GwgLJFa7...) - Another popular Istanbul street food is rice and chickpeas with shredded chicken, and you’ll find it all over the city.
📍Midyeci Erkan (maps.app.goo.gl/bfvrVjSiiwJdk...) - 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!

Istanbul is my favourite destination. The food is amazing and the key is to avoid "tourist" restaurants around attractions - just go deeper into the streets and see where you see all their local people sitting and eating, and just order there - you just cant fail! And TUrkish people are amazing hosts. I love their friendly culture, kindness and etiquette
And local foods much better than tourist foods. Example balkan restorants they selling cheap and good quality food better than tourist foods
as a Turk, this is a very accurate comment. Especially im so sad for those who come to Turkiye and leave without seeing real baklava. I can say that the baklava of the Güllüoğlu's is the best I have ever eaten. Everyone should eat from it. By the way, let me also point out that Istanbul is just the tip of the iceberg. If you research where local dish come from and go to those provinces, you may lose your mind because the taste of the food is so good.
Jag håller definitivt med dig.
Or contact me. :) No tourist traps, no sponsored top lists, no deals with restaurant owners. Just real, local and good food. Join my food walk tours. Walking is good, food walk is better!
TSKLERRRR
Just got back from a week in Istanbul...it is an amazing place. The food is crazy good and the people are some of the nicest people in the world!
thanks, you're always welcome:-)
@@idilguner6730 I can't wait to return to your wonderful country!
And I just got back from Spain after two weeks :) Your country is also amazing and people were sooo kind and welcoming! :)
Istanbul is a beautiful but very crowded city. If you have the opportunity, I recommend you to visit Antalya, Fethiye region. We love Spain very much, they are very warm people. Loves from Turkey.
Mark Baba! Back in Türkiye 🇹🇷 Your always welcome🙂
Thank you, so happy to be back!
I worked with a crazy Turk for about 16 years...he's since moved back to Turkey to take care of his Mom with his second wife...I think I need to go visit him. Loved that man. And he owes me a bottle of Raki.
Them cimitcisi looking like donuts eh Mark. Delish!
That's what they are a bagel 🥯
Cool to hear that, definitely go visit when you have a chance. Food and the raki is great!
I met him in addis ababa ge is a great guy
Second wife?
I had the pleasure to stay in Istanbul for 3 month, and until this day i still dream of tantuni and that mackerel in a lavash wrap. Istanbul’s food is top notch amazing. US turkish food can not compare🤤🤤🤤🤤

Whenever I am tired or stressed, i just have to watch a video of Mark Wiens, just seeing his face changes my mood.
Very cool to hear that, thank you very much for your support.
Me too!
I’ve been his follower for almost 5 years now
So true 👍
@@MarkWiens MARK i am so glad you are finally able to have good time in my city!!!
We just missed each other Mark! Amazing video! The Turkish food is incredible and the city of Istanbul is a special place!
Hey man good to hear from you. Are you still in Istanbul? I filmed this about a month ago.
welcome to Istanbul Mark
@@MarkWiensyummy Turkish food ❤ by the way I recommend you to try food from Ecuador 🇪🇨 it’s veeeeeey veeeeery goooooood 👌 🍲
I live in İstanbul and today our English teacher showed us this video. She said that she is a big fan of yours. It was such a fun time watching this! 😆
I love Istanbul! Hello from Bosnia.
Kardeşim
Turcine
But I hate Erdogan he is very corrupt 😢
Bosna ❤❤❤🇹🇷🇧🇦
I spent two months in Istanbul last year - hands down my favorite 'vacation' ever. Great food, people, and cheap ferry rides (that I took advantage of almost daily)! I stayed in the Kadiköy neighborhood, near the crazy streets with shops and restaurants. There's a menemen place called Meşhur Menemenci Cemal Polat that I visited almost every day for breakfast ... menemen with white cheese and a small tea! I really need to go back!
Great to hear that, glad you enjoyed Istanbul so much, thanks for the tip!
you even put the correct names and letters in your comment huge respect man! I'm glad you had a good time in Istanbul
Great video, Mark! Me and my dad actually stopped and got a photo with you in istanbul! You're such a great guy!
My city, Istanbul, is a magnificent place with fantastic cuisine. You captured its essence perfectly. Turkiye is at the crossroads of everything; we are European, Asian, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Balkan. This gives us great cultural richness, which is reflected in our food.
Love this Turkish food adventure just makes me drool 🤣🤣🤣 watching from the Philippines 🇵🇭. Thanks for this wonderful vlog 👍
You've visited my country Nigeria 🇳🇬🙌now to another country I love so dearly ❤Turkey 🇹🇷Mashalla
As a Turkish man i love to see your turkish street food videos love you Mark !
Thank you very much, appreciate your support!
Do men wear bras in Turkey?
@@MarkWiens Mark you forgot to try Kokoreç, Adana Kebap, Pirzola, Poğaça, Börek, Helva and Baklava
@@RedSpicyFeast1010????? This is Turkiye not gayrope
@@uaberk look at the profile picture of the OP.
Turkey is a amazing country. Greetings from Morocco
Greetings from Türkiye
That fish sandwich looks like utter perfection. Simplicity in a hand held.
I‘m Hungry 😋
Turkish cuisine is a dream🙌
Thanks for the trip Mark👍
I was in Istanbul in Nov 2015...missed so many food experiences. Looking forward for another vacation to Turkiye and go to all the places that Mark covered
Welcome back to Turkey after 8 years. Nice to see you.
Hi. Nice to see you in istanbul. Majority of turks didnt speak english but they are absolutely friendly people. Been living in istanbul for almost 3 years now. I gained almost 12kls now because of their cuisines. 😅
Yess!! Türkiye again after many years!!!
It's been too long!
@@MarkWiens Welcome back again to my country. Dear Mark Wiens i am very happy. I wish you have great nice foodfull journey in Turkey. I do not know your route but you must go to two cities that are the best gastronomic cities in Turkey one is a must Gaziantep (capital of Baklava and Kebap) and the other is my homeland Adana (where the famous legendary Adana Kebap and our national drink Shalgam was born). If you don't know Shalgam, Shalgam is a non alcholic fermented Turnip and Black Carrot juice that is very savory and goes with Kebap very well must try it sometime. I am sorry that in 2015 you had to go back early because of the stupid coup attempt that you and your family encountered.
Thanks Mark! Turkish food is on another level!
Mark Wiens is definitely my food guru! But he is also my "how to treat people" guru! I love the way he profoundly respects and admires all those people working around food! Thanks Mark! 🌿
Lady tripping at 35:10 😂 food looks incredible!
🤣🤣
lmaooo
😂😂😂
She probably thought, "I'm glad no one saw that." Meanwhile, Mark drops the video to hundreds of thousands of views.😂
Dude I saw that and I was trying to find it to mention it in the comments 😂
Turkish food is da bomb! Man, I can't even watch this vlog....my mouth is watering, stomach gurgling...I envy your job brother!
Best Food in The World Turkish Food...🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Not if you have lived in different countries and developed your palate. And if you don’t eat meat or plain white rice.
Every Year 4 Weeks in Türkiye and Istanbul only for Eating.🥰
Welcome back to Türkiye again Mark.
Thank you very much!
I go too Turkiye 2 times a year, Istanbul I have amazing friends there and my GF. I love it there and may end up moving there; out of the city though. The transportation is amazing too!
Turkiye is crazyyy, best food believe me.
Istanbul is one of my favourite places to visit, been 3 times and is always full of surprises, happy to see you still winning Mark, thanks for the nostalgia.
Wow, everything looks delicious! I am obsessed with Tantuni-it's one of the best on-the-go dishes. Great video, Mark!
Oh! How I wish I was with you guys, experiencing this Mediterranean cuisine of Turkish variant. I always crave for Istanbul. It fascinates me in so many ways(people, history, astounding landscapes, cuisines, cultures, traditions etc).
the feeding from these guys is a common gesture in turkey, it means that the person feeding really likes you.
Mark …. I have been watching you non stop since 2015… nearly a decade now and till date as soon as I get your notification I leave everything and just watch ur videos!!!! Continue to grow … lots of love Mark ….. cheers bud
Thank you very much for all your support over the years!
We are currently visiting Istanbul from New Zealand and tried Dürümcü Raif Usta based off your review Mark, all I can say is that it was absolutely delicious! Definitely check the place out if you can, the staff are very friendly and the service is super quick!
Welcome and hope you enjoy your trip! I dont know if you're still in the city but as a note, try to avoid that "çiğ köfte" place. It looks really bad. The real çiğ köfte or raw meatball is not allowed for sale for a while now because of health risks since it contains raw meat literally. Though it is legal to serve if they prepare it right there to serve right after preparation unlike the ones that you'll see under the name of çiğ köfte while its nothing but bulgur and lots of sauce and tastes nothing alike. Some kebab restaurants still do the way i describe so if you wanna try it, you should look from there and not the ones that you see on the street named as çiğ köfte stands.
My brother and I followed your videos from a while back when we went to Istanbul - and had some of the best meals of our lives. Favorites were Lades Menemen and Sehzade Cag Kebap!
Great to hear that, oh yah those are amazing places. More Istanbul videos coming!
Hey Mark! Great seeing you & Micah sharing a meal again! Turkey has such historical significance and the food is perfect for drinking lol. Each protein is seasoned well & the kabobs are always amazing paired with the fresh bread from the oven. I live around Turkish business owners & they always so kind, hardworking, and friendly people. I can consume that fish sandwich for lunch on a weekly basis for sure. I already know that I'm gonna enjoy this food tour!! Great to see you again Mark!! Happy Memorial Weekend!! Wishing you safe travels & blessings my friend!! Stay being phenomenal!! Cheers!! 🌯🥖🍻
Thank you so much, fully agree, so much seasoning and everything is flavorful. Have a great weekend as well!
I love turkish food so much, best cuisine in my opinion
That cheese filled patty sandwich looks absolutely fantastic. My mouth was watering watching the chef stretch it. Lol thank you Mark. ❤
Thanks, oh yah that was amazing!
This one is gonna explode! Just watched Luke Martin's Turkey video..This must be a sign!
伊斯坦布尔。。。。。。美好的城市。。。。。。美好的食物。。。。。美好的人民：）
Bulgarian here
Bulgarians love Turkey! Mashallah
The street food in Istanbul looks delicious, I love it 👍
So happy that you finally visited Türkiye again! ❤
If you're still in Istanbul go to Ziyafet kuzu çevirme İstanbul. They rotisserie full lambs and the food is to die for. Some of the best rice and lamb you will ever have and the lamb cooking over logs is a sight to behold.
😍Look at Micah,❤ he's getting so tall , growing up beautiful before our eyes. Awesome video Mark
Thank you!
@@MarkWiens you're welcome
So happy that you came back to türkiye! i hope you can travel to more regions and experience our wide variety of dishes.
Welcome to Türkiye🇹🇷
All the news about war, disasters, and conflict, yet you show that there is beauty and friendliness everywhere in the world
Turkey also commits genocide towards the Kurds, Greeks and Armenians as we speek. Sadly not a good country.
@@RodiBeatz It's truly unbelievable how you can lie so easily.
@@alexhunter8239 The internet is free to use my friend. Their president is a war criminal. Not all countries are good.
@@RodiBeatzmillions of kurdish people live peacefully in Turkey, if there was a genocide believe the situation would be much different than this.
@@pcprincipal345 Peaceful? You can’t show Kurdish flag in public, you can’t talk Kurdish in public without experiencing racism. Kurdish shops and homes being destroyed and replaced with Turkish shops and arabs. It’s called ethnic cleansing my friend.
So glad for this video as we’re heading to Istanbul in two days. Thank you 🙏
I wish I had watched a food video when I went lol
Be carefull there. İstanbul is going to be a scam City. Watch out first for the prizes and calculate to your currency.
PS: You got the Same food Spots in İzmir at turkish Beauty Aegean sea. It's cheaper then İstanbul and u got more to Sightseeing, Ephesus, Pamukkale, Kuşadası, çeşme. Greetings from a Turk who lives in Germany.
Please be careful Istanbul is a scam city n ISIS terrorist headquarters are in Ankara thanks to that Islamist extremist Erdogan... 😂 n his Allies in Qatar. Hello from India 🇮🇳
Please be careful Istanbul is a scam city 😂. Hello from India
Nice to hear that, have an amazing trip to Istanbul!
I really like your videos not only about food but also history included. Amazing job Mark! I love Turkish food, coffee and tea!
Greatest way to start my day, thanks as always Mark and family!! ❤
Love Turkey! Loved seeibg Mark back here.
What an incredibly insightful and well-crafted video! The way you broke down the complexities of the topic into digestible segments was truly impressive. Here are some key moments that stood out:
[02:15] - Excellent introduction to the main concepts.
[07:45] - Great explanation of the practical applications.
[12:30] - Helpful tips and tricks for beginners.
[18:10] - Detailed analysis of advanced techniques.
[25:00] - Final thoughts and summary.
For anyone new to this subject, this video serves as an excellent guide. The visuals and explanations complement each other perfectly, making the learning process enjoyable and effective. I particularly appreciated how you included real-life examples to illustrate your points - it really helped to solidify my understanding.
Thank you for the effort and dedication you put into creating such high-quality content. I'm definitely subscribing for more videos like this. Keep up the fantastic work!
The Turkish cuisine is a fusion cuisine. It includes the elements of Middle Asia, East Europe, the Balkans, the Mediterranean Sea, Near East, and Middle East. Including the food and beverages, Turkish culture is one of the most influential cultures throughout the world. Cuisine, TV dramas, Turkish music, and all the touristical and historical places in the country are the "soft power" elements of Türkiye. A great history including the Ottoman Empire, and a great culture including traditional and modern elements... A very nice country... West and East are together... Just enjoy your time in Türkiye, and thank you very much for this video.
Why is Turkey so underestimated by Europe? their history and country are really interesting and exciting
We live in a euro centric world where every other culture is not considered but treated as second or third class
Turkey > Europe
Because Turkey is a fascist dictatorship constantly threatening Europe and undermining human rights and democracy, killing and genociding Kurds and Armenians lol. learn some history.
Yes also their Turkish shows!
Their culture is awesome but they are thinking that neighboring countries are their enemies.
Finally you came here!!! I especially love your Latin American videos. My boyfriend is from Peru and he has been wondering for a year when you would come to Istanbul. We love you!
That happiness from the man making the kapta. Such beauty and happiness.
I watch Mark from the 1.st video.still amazed by his socialising. everywhere he goes ,he puts smiles on people's faces.good work.keep going.!!!!!
Mark you are full of love man that's what I respect about you the most keep doing what you do brother 👏 💯
Thank you Mark and Urr. You guys took us on a wonderful street food excursion. Thumbs up really enjoyed it, all the best from South Africa.
Oh wow, my mouth is watering Once again, you've outdone yourself, Mark. Excellent video, very informative and entertaining. Great filming and editing skills, it just keeps getting better and better. You are such a passionate, hardworking and respectful individual. I love watching your content, it's like you're actually taking me there with you. I get to experience the food and the culture through you. We truly appreciate you and what you do. Kudos to you!
Thank you for your kind words and encouragement, really appreciate it!
Right as released! Let’s enjoy another Mark Wiens Video together everyone 🤗 You know the day will be better with a new video released 😃

Mark , gaziantep is a must visit when you are ib turkey.

@@MarkWiens wow cant wait! You are the best mark! May god bless you and your family! Im moroccan living in germany and i love watching your videos since you start your youtube channel. Have a nice day mark you are an amazing person
Aynı şeyi bende yazdım Gaziantep gitmezse Türkiye'ye gelmiş sayılmaz bence. Fırsatı kaçırmamalı.
Epic! Istanbul is MAGIC !
MARK WİENS THE KİNG OF FOOD!
Thanx for the content Mark. We are travelling digitally all around the world because of you.
I really like the way you present your videos. Always so new and interesting!
It has been 7+ years since you came to Turkey , some changed some stayed same , hope you enjoyed everything Mark !
Istanbul, Cappadocia, Pamukkale, Efes (Ephesus), Antalya (including its towns), Izmir, Bursa, Abant and Yedigöller, Eskişehir, and the Black Sea region are the most recommended places to visit in Türkiye. Besides the cultural tourism, sea tourism is also so advanced in this country. To swim and sunbathe, you should visit Türkiye, again. The seasides of Türkiye are really unforgettable.
Outstanding,I’m scheduled to visit in December. This video was awesome
Thanks for the tips Mark! Looks amazing.
Oh i miss Istanbul ❤
Welcome back!
Another great food tour Mark! Loved all the food!
Your guide is so good btw... he shows you the best food in the best places really... real Turkish stuff

Mark you make the best videos on youtube related to travelling and food! I love your attitude, your friendliness, your kindness and all the vibes that your videos have!! Awesome work once again! Plenty of love from Greece!!
Here I am on this cold rainy Saturday afternoon in South Africa 🇿🇦 and snacking on a packet of spicy sweet chilli chips and catching up on videos that I haven't yet watched and I came across this video released over an hour ago. Those of us who grew up on spicy foods, have stomachs of steel. Micah as well was eating spicy from a baby. Everything Mark is eating today, looks delicious and please eat a second helping on behalf of us 😋👌
Love and regards to Ying and Micah.
Glad you enjoy spicy food as well. Hope you have a great day even with the cold rainy weather!
Mark, you can't eat all that in one day! Hope you filmed several days...
Went to Istanbul in 1990 and I still remember the sandwich I had ❤
