ISTANBUL FOOD TOUR: Exploring and EATING Incredible TURKISH FOOD for 24 Hours in TURKEY!
In this week’s video, we spend 24 hours eating incredible Turkish food in Turkey’s capital. Welcome to our delicious Istanbul food tour!
We start our day at Pişi Pişi Kahvaltı with one of our favorite things in the world—Turkish breakfast!
From here, we walk down to Taksim Square to admire the Taksim Mosque and Taksim Monument.
We then make our way towards Cihangir, where we used to live, to try out some Turkish sweets, simit, coffee, and tea. Since we were already in the neighborhood, we decided to visit our old apartment to check in on some of our favorite street cats.
It’s now time to grab the ferry over to Kadıköy, on the Asian side of Istanbul. For our first stop, we head to Halil Lahmacun for some lahmacun and pide.
After trying so many delicious foods, we decide it’s not time for a drink. We head to Draft to grab some cheap happy hour beers. We also try Lion’s Milk, the national drink of Turkey.
Next up, we head to 1971Doner to try one of the most iconic street foods of Turkey—the doner kebab.
For some dessert, we head to Meşhur Dondurmacı Ali Usta for some Turkish ice cream.
After finishing our ice cream, we take a stroll along the water, then take a quick break to sit with some local street cats.
We end the day at Duranoğlu Baklava with some Turkish Delight.

Nice one guys great images and b roll. November !?!! Way behind in the edits I see!! Turkey is off our list now after going… hyperinflation is real and it’s not any value now.
I have been many times in Turkey, i love Istanbul and the turkish food! Greetings from Milano! 😄
I rly enjoy ya content, so much information with so nice looking food 😀 u made my day.
I want go to Turkey
I can not believe that Turkish has so many words like in Serbian. WE say Čaj they say Caj for tea…. great video
👍🌷
I adore you two. I wish you had videos of when you actually lived in these places. Just so you know, cats don’t automatically like everyone. They can sense good people. ❤
We loved revisiting Istanbul after having been gone for multiple years. It is still as vibrant and fun as last time around and the food is even more delicious than we remember 😊. Unfortunately, it seems like the Pişi Pişi breakfast place we visited in the beginning of this video is temporarily closed. If anyone in Istanbul knows why, let us know. It's a shame and we really hope it opens again since the breakfast there was absolutely amazing! Also, let us know what your favourite Turkish food is, as well as any good restaurants in Istanbul. Make sure to subscribe because our next two videos will be from one of Turkey's neighboring countries. Any guesses? As always thanks for watching! 😀 – Brandon & Anja
afiyet olsun 🧿🧿🧿
Guys be honest what food is better in Kosovo or Istanbul ? 😊
this cheese name çeçil
So Jealous! Agree, there is nothing like a Turkish breakfast. My cousin is married to a Turkish gentleman, lived there for years. Moved back to Boston and we would host a booth at fairs to support the Turkish student community. Going out to eat with them was the best! Only a handful of places. So want a Donar kabab now. Love cats! Had one that looked like Marble. Hello from rainy Oregon. Happy Pi(e) Day!
