Hello everyone! Today i'm so happy because once again I am bringing you one video on foodies in istanbul
and this time we want to show you what the Turkish breakfast looks like, the traditional one,
that one that you will see on Instagram,
on YouTube videos, on internet about many many dishes at once on the table
so are you ready to see what Turkish breakfast looks like? So let's check it out together.
Now we will show you what Turkish breakfast looks like and trust me that I love doing this type of videos because
i'm a big foodie
and
I was so happy to come and have a Turkish breakfast and usually in many restaurants they will serve this
breakfast like this. They will put different type of cheese and some nutella or some
some type of chocolate also some
Some honey some honey and the cucumber and the tomato they are basic in every Turkish breakfast
also different flavors of jam in this case we got one strawberry jam
cream
also we have some green and black olives
And tomato paste and another salad like mixed with with cheese
And of course the bread but the star of every Turkish breakfast will always be the different type of eggs
Especially the Turkish one called "menemen"
This one is made of scrambled eggs, and you can get it with "sucuk" which is a type of sausage
Or also, you can get it on cheese like in our case and this is delicious.
As a Turkish
person, you won't eat it with a fork.
Basically, you will just grab one little piece of bread and you will just dip it here.
So don't use your forks. Don't use your your spoons just
Mix it like that just mix it and then eat it.
This breakfast seriously, it's delicious
The taste is everything tastes so fresh
very good good quality
But I need to tell you something
Probably many people might think that every single day at home
People like Turkish people or even us living here we might be eating this breakfast every single day
Well, the reality is not like that
because to be honest this breakfast
takes so
Long to prepare at home. Also the tea the tea takes at least 15 minutes to prepare only the tea
plus, I mean if you're working if you're going to school or having like a
a very stressing
routine in your life
Then of course, we cannot have this type of breakfast at home mostly maybe during the weekends
But in a little bit we will show you the another alternative that the
locals have as a breakfast when they are in a rush.
We would love to recommend you this place for having a breakfast and in this area is where usually the locals come
during the weekends and they can have this different type of
breakfast and even if you are thinking of visiting for example in one day early morning the Dolmabahce palace
or Ortakoy mosque in this area you can stop by in the morning because it's in the Besiktas center
we will be leaving the description at the link of the
location in the description box so you can easily find it and trust me the prices are
really good. It's very affordable. The taste is amazing.
I mean this is probably one of the best breakfasts I have tried here especially the menemen, the menemen was outstanding
One complete Turkish breakfast was 65 Turkish Liras
and this is more than enough for two people, of course.
Just if you want to keep adding some other items some other foods
Such as extra cheese
Or tahini or something like that. You can pay some extra fee
but
what is it in the package already is 65 liras usually in some other places in Sultanahmet, or maybe in Taksim
The prices are a bit higher
of course because those are way more touristic areas and you can even find for at least 90 liras.
We totally recommend you coming here. It's a very famous street for breakfast
and also as an important
information as an important point
Also depending on the area in Turkey
They add different type of foods
For example, there is a one very famous, which is made in Van the "Van Kahvaltisi" or the Van breakfast
That one has a lot of things also depending on the Black Sea Region they put different things
But this one is very complete. You will love it.
As we told you previously not all Turkish people have enough time for having that complete Turkish breakfast
and this is why we will show you the other options how locals mostly eat in the mornings
And this is just grab and go basically
Before they're going to their to their jobs
They usually go to these type of stores where they sell different type of like pastry breads and so on
One of them and the most common one that you already know is the "simit"
but also many people they tend to eat "poğaça, açma"
and we will show you right now.
This is the famous "poğaça" that I just bought in that store and basically most of Turkish people
especially the ones that are working early morning and the students going to
to school
They usually come and buy this ones because these are easy just to grab and go
These are very good and not only poğaça, you can find different type of breads like simit,
açma, poğaça
and
You can find them only like the bread but also some of them are filled with
cheese with with potato
Even with meat and with different things in my case, I chose one with with potato, which is my favorite one
So also you can grab these ones also from those famous red little
cars that are on the street you can also buy these ones in this case we just went to that store.
