MASSIVE Turkish food feast (must try!) 🇹🇷

all right welcome back to Istanbul everybody today  is bright and early Sunday morning streets are a   little bit quiet but we have blue skies happening  and the weather is nearly 20 degrees I think   spring has sprung here in Istanbul so come along  with us as we journey through our neighborhood   which is called which is a little quiet now it  is Sunday morning but lovely neighborhood lots   of cafes lots of bars lots of smiling faces  it seems to be trendy and awesome and there   is what seems to be a breakfast street because  every time we walk down that street people say   Hey you want some breakfast even if it's 2  p.m yeah that's true it's like an all-day   breakfast street so let's go see if we can hunt  and find some Turkish breakfast very good let's go wow I tell you what the streets are a  little quiet but the breakfast street   is bumping full of people  oh Ivana made a new friend [Music]   thank you thanks guys nice guy thank you evidently if you bring a camera to   breakfast street you're the  most popular person on this Avon is popular today what's nice is it seems like  there's locals eating in all the restaurants it's   not just a tourist place because this is an  opportunity for people to give some tourist   pricing with all the crowdedness and all the  sellers kind of approaching us but it seems   like there's locals all around so I would bet that  it's pretty fair pricing or pretty consistent in   pricing like not uh negotiate for the highest  bidder type scenario good thank you welcome   breakfast uh okay breakfast or you want to look around   you know me I'm the worst tourist  ever I go for the first one every time change the garden we can look thank you something nice happening [Music] actually it was a nice place and  we would enjoy eating there but they have   some music playing so for the video's  sake we're gonna go back to the streets   I tell you what Ivana the vibe here is just  nice because quite touristy but not at all   tourist trap very friendly very safe locals are  involved and uh really nice energy for early in   the morning I think most of the people here  are actually local I think so I think so yes   it's not a tourist trap rather it's just  a very tourist friendly area let's say breakfast oh upstairs yes Turkish people are very friendly they're good  sales people because they're not pushy but   they're very friendly and very outgoing  uh not overwhelming just just kind of   good sales people yeah maybe anyone music is  nice and quiet nobody can hear me sold let's   eat man there's an English menu there's the  I'm starving there's I'm pretty hungry and   there's I'm hungry we should go I'm starving all  right let's order this 400 for two people means   20 bucks a person no 20 bucks total 10 bucks  each 10 bucks each by the way love your shirt   in this environment Ivana do you work here whoa  so beautiful okay let's get it I'm starving man   it's sold I'm starving yes  thank you thank you thank you this does come with drinks tea  okay okay thank you thank you this is only maybe a third of our breakfast  more to come but we're so hungry we're gonna   start appetizers appetizer with types  of cheese I think and bread and olives look at this spread looks like chili or paprika or something good flavor is so strong spices kind of like um Middle East is there any  flavors in it oh man it's good the spices I did   not expect that you know Adam there's  some not some kind of nuts in there   too maybe walnuts or not pistachio I think  and a little bit spicy dude seriously good   this might be the best thing in a whole  meal what that's just amazing food very   surprising flavor spicy and nutty what is it  it's kind of like [Music] our nuts in it yeah might be the best tomato in the whole world what  this is so sweet but then just eat it I don't know   if it's right to go uh cheese and bread spread  let me tell you the cheese is amazing the cheese   is amazing right creamy and delicious very fresh  I wonder if it's like claiman a little bit buttery hmm the cheese with the Ritz bread I don't  know if this is right or wrong actually the   only thing I don't like about Turkish  food is I don't know how to eat it it   might be a technique I'm doing right or  wrong but the red spread with the cheese very good ham cheese and jam roll okay not bad  so we've begun mixing and matching a   little bit of everything honey butter cheese bread [Music] you guys know the name of this bread let us know thank you okay the table is starting to fill up  very nice I think it's like a Turkish   scrambled egg I can tell you what the  volume is rising in here okay people   are getting excited the food is coming out  we got sausage sausages yes there's no pork   sauce I don't think it's more of a sausages no  pork sausage it's almost like a dessert like a   pastry with potentially cheese inside I  like cheese and ham inside look at this very good it's not a fried crab  with cheese and ham inside I like   this but it wouldn't be four pans so it's  gonna be meat sometimes or something yeah uh the egg is actually gone invisible I think it's  like scrambled like you said it's kind of whipped   all together oh it's good oh it's very good  you're gonna love it you said that uh turkey has   the best of males you're gonna love this strong  tomato flavor oh really really good sweet tomato more bread coming uh fried bread oh that was good   that was good uh put this with the  Tomato almost like donuts it smells   like donuts as well oh it's hot where's  that one I think that's a melted cheese peppers and tomatoes the Tomato flavor you're right it's very good  and also the pepper flavor is very strong yes   very fresh not too much spices in  it flavor is just balanced just   balanced all the natural flavors from the veggies now we want to try this for me   for my palette is going to be my favorite  thing in the whole table I'm almost sure   of it this is just cheese you said oh my gosh oh  my God that looks like the best thing I can eat don't play with your food Ivana oh my God I  hope no one in this restaurant saw me doing that   that was embarrassing good  right Burger yeah I think [Music]   it's funny they gave us Fork a knife we never  used a broken knife except I cut the cheese mix it too the eggs and the cheese we haven't had much salty cheese yet it's  more creamy and oily and a little bit more   like buttery cheese I like that better you  like that better yeah I'm a salty cheese   man but I will go for some Turkish cheese  you're a buttery cheese lady oh my gosh I   married a buttery cheese lady and you're a  salted food oh a salty cheese kind of guy now you're saying this with the tomatoes foreign it's amazing it's so good because I love salty  food it's not salty at all but very good I'll go   for one more actually we'll level up fried bread  fried bread buttery cheese and tomato and egg and be there very good five star six star whatever  you want I don't know I do want to try this   um sausage like blood sausage it looks  pretty dark of course I don't think it's one is it meat it might even be like vulgar [Music] I have a hard time enjoying food I  don't know what it is my brain gets   a little bit phobia so because it's a  mystery I'm not sure I like it or not it's very oily don't [Music] but [Music] it's not a lamb it's not okay the meat flavor  it doesn't seem to be very salty or very fatty   it's kind of like oily yeah something new anyway  about it we got a lot of food to do here I think   I know why they call the restaurant 11 Brothers  because it's enough food for the whole family   even if you got 11 kids you know so let's eat  dude what'd you say is your favorite so far I love the bread [Music] and special honorable shout out  to the red paste the red paste   was very nice all right everyone let's eat man good morning [Music] [Music]   all right [Music] all of you like the Scrambler because normally  I don't like eggs in that kind of texture but   this one is very efficient to eat Turkish food you  must use your brain because you gotta choose which   dip you want to use with this bread should I use  the jam Nutella butter and honey you gotta make a   strategy and you can you can bite all the way down  on a different sauce every bite okay Jam first I like this bread by the way I don't know what it  is yeah I think it's fried crab they roll it up   and then they fried yeah yeah it's got all layers  inside yeah is it crispy or more soft the outside   is crispy but it's very soft yeah but not salty  very good and of course Nutella yo I'm ashamed to   admit the nutella's almost gone I know I've never  eaten Nutella before that bread delicious I mean   Nutella is not Turkish from Italy or something but  in Turkey they have a lot of hazelnuts yes turkey   is the world biggest producer of pays online  yeah okay okay so maybe the hazelnut is from   Turkey this one does got something in it Jesus  buttery cheese and some green herbs see yeah yeah   it looks good actually I love this one [Music] I  don't know what they're called today has been a   learning experience I haven't touched a french  fries yeah that's that's the embarrassing part   of our diet Yvonne has been going to Harvard  Nutella I've been going hard on French fries   really the two most familiar items on the table  you know old habits are very hard to break okay   french fries can I finish this cheese go ahead  yeah that's the best cheese really buttery cheesy   I think this came up it's another  very dense form it's very buttery   it smells very good it goes so good  with that red stuff oh it's good and it's almost like um our travels in the Balkans  have prepared us for turkey because in Romania is   a kuska and Serbia Ivar I think this is all  sort of a familiar to that red paste also a   big cheese and meat culture in those countries uh  cheese and meat kind of familiar food I think the   ottoman inspired the Balkan food so I'll  tell you what I love about this kind of meal   because it's all different bowls and you  share everything you have like an infinite   number of combinations so I feel like Yvonne  and I could probably get the same order even   tomorrow and discover new things we love  if I didn't try every single combination wait or something that comes at one point and  that's it but here the sharing is sort of nice   what I don't love about it is we wasted  a lot of football there's no way to eat   everything and I have contributed to food  waste today that's just the nature of the   meal and I will end the Vlog by saying this I will  lower my voice to say this so I don't get yelled   at this is world famous Turkish tea it tastes  like normal tea to me can you taste the flavor   of Turkish tea did you say something different  uh the same thing yes the regular English tea   breakfast it tastes like regular tea I had this  expectation in my head of oh Turkish tea it's   going to be something special something  different maybe it's because we just came   from Pakistan where they have Pakistani  tea milk chai totally different yes Gucci   but Turkish tea is just regular tea anyway that  being said very good meal thanks for watching hey look at that ifanna breakfast is over and the  street has come alive everybody's out and about what are you doing babe zero
