Good afternoon guys and welcome back to another video here in the beautiful city
at night time of Istanbul. I'm here with the boys, how we doing Mahad and Saud I've been finishing
all the Mac's desserts man like it's rough now. Oh, I've been exposed. He's gotta put me on the
payroll like I'm just doing all the work for him. Exactly he's been helping me finish some of the
desserts but for good reason as you guys have seen in all the videos so far in Istanbul we've
been having so many treats so needed a little bit of help anyways we're going for round three you
guys have seen in the last two days in the last couple videos and actually where we're at right
now is we're standing at the bus stop right now we're going to be taking a bus over to
Taksim that's literally where I'm staying so I should remember the name Taksim square it's
like I don't know three kilometers probably 30 cents to take the bus and we're going to
take you guys with us in the evening to try out some delicious food along the streets
maybe we'll get another dessert we shall see but as soon as the bus gets here we'll show you
that experience because obviously I want to share with you guys all the public transportation here
so you can see how simple it is to get around Istanbul. All right guys this is the DT2, we're
going to be taking this one to Taksim square as you can see there's a lot of people getting
on this bus right now and we just got to push our way in he's the expert though. Let's dig in.
Yeah. Yeah. The nice part is you have these cards and they work literally everywhere you go
so you can just hop on the ferry you can hop on the tram you can hop on whatever it is.
All right then let's see how much this is going to cost us oh 7.67 so that's like 50
cents that's actually more expensive than the ferry cost us and we'll be cruising I don't know
how many stops. How many stops are we going bro? Oh wait back there yeah does it matter did it
not work yeah I don't think did it not work no I don't think it was shorter it popped up in green
so the nice part is you can actually if you need you can swipe this for multiple people so it's
a private card and you just load as much money as you want. How many stops are we going to be taking?
that's like I think five.
Five stops yeah all right so it's what like a 10-15 minute drive. Depends on the traffic.
All right there we go that's a good answer that's how you know he's a local these days
yeah that's a pretty packed bus even at this time so I can imagine like in the middle of the day
during the work day this thing is probably packed to the brim so yeah nice little night-time cruise
and then once we get the Taksim square we're gonna be taking you with for some delicious
food here I'm ready. All right I think we're making some pretty good progress here or maybe we're
going back the way we came. We're cutting a U-turn. But we're getting some of that Istanbul traffic
here as you can see. The U-turns always scare me. Yeah right like we're gonna roll. Yeah I feel like
I'm going in the wrong direction you know yeah yeah but I have faith in this guy so. Exactly
yeah he's he's a local here so he's gonna get us there yeah but I can tell you guys you need to
hold on to these things if you're trying to surf on the bus you won't be able to stand on your own
I've literally been like hanging on and like swinging from left to right.
All right guys we are arriving to Taksim here look at that mosque that is incredibly beautiful
when it's lit up like that, whoa sorry. All right here we go this is us yeah that's it let's do this.
Taksim square it's been a while. Oh it's a completely different experience being here
at night time we lost you boys. Like you have to go to the other side.
Welcome, welcome back to Taksim. Honestly, I could my face is literally burning guys you're probably
noticing my face was really red today because I did the hammam bath and they scraped basically all
of the dead skin off me and so someone actually replied to my Instagram story saying be careful
like being in the sun after you know hammam. Oh we're about to get ran over.
Because like obviously you take that top layer of skin off that's one less level of protection
but I didn't realize that until after and now I am fried anyways more importantly though we are
walking into Taksim square it is a completely different experience being here now than when
I was here like during the day like it's lit up it's beautiful I mean it was beautiful
during the day too but like the way everything looks right now is majestic. Welcome to Taksim.
So, guys we're walking this way a little closer view of the mosque now that is so pretty and
right down here is where we have all the food options what are you guys thinking for food.
Let's go for Turkish food. Turkish food that is a must there's burger king is that Turkish. For me, yeah.
Oh, really you're a big burger king fan yeah. When you can dine in with the king why to go
with the joker. Exactly I like that, I like that. Well guys we're not doing burger king tonight
we're gonna see what we've got going on let me tell you this there are massive-massive-massive
kebab meat rotators I don't know the official name for them but I can smell them I'll tell you that.
All right now I'm getting the hype for Taksim square at night I mean look at this place there
are thousands of people everywhere getting some chow here tonight I don't even know where to
start out in terms of food but I guess we're just gonna do a cruise down this way and I guess we'll
decide what's going to pull us in for a delicious snack this evening or not snack but full on dinner.
What are you waiting for? Yeah, no more dessert meat. Yeah, yeah. Exactly it's gonna be kebab time
it's gonna be I don't know some sort of like Turkish pizza it could be anything. I'm getting
hungry just thinking about it. Oh, yeah, me too, me too. It's gonna be fantastic. I got live music.
oh Dewey. As he was saying you know. Yeah, yeah Taksim live music right there.
Serious vibes right now. Like the building itself is like
200 years. For Hafiz Mustafa, this is the 1864. So it's been been around for quite a while
and that's where you get the best Turkish delights, best baklavas. And they have
chocolate. Oh diabetes but you know. That yeah geez that is very tempting let me tell you that.
This is just insane look at this we have this massive crowd of people and
somehow a van is able to drive through here that is quite impressive. Oh!
guys we've got some delicious food options right here McDonalds. Let's go. This is-this
is actually from that's Turkish right. Hey, what's up brother? How are we doing? Yeah Habibi, key [ __ ].
There we go whoa that guy's looking for something with that phone.
Oh, we got the Lupe club this I guess this is the club area, club district because there was
another guy I wasn't filming he came up to me he's like night-club, night-club bro. I was like probably
not going to go with you if you're basically whispering night-club tonight sounds a little dicey.
So it looks like Esmer café restaurant we've got 10 to 15
minutes.
Yeah, we need a spot ideally outside.
For lighting right. Just for the vibe yeah for the vibe inside it's just it's not the same
you know yeah yeah I'm feeling this night-time weather right now.
Exactly, you know look at that guys right here only in Istanbul. Let's go.
We're in yeah perfect oh I think that means one minute.
All right there we go that is that is how they hook it up we got the VIP service right here.
All right thank you very much. Thank you. Oh yes
great work gentlemen we've got ourselves a spot here at the café and we're on the street
so everyone's wishes are coming true right now. It's good weather uh-huh uh-huh fresh air yeah
I mean look at this place like you just look up we've got all these hanging festive lights.
All right guys we've got the Esmer menu here and it looks like we got quite a few options
we've got pastas, we've got pizzas, we've got some sort of like seafood, medley pasta
maybe that's a little bit of lamb there, coffees oh yeah. All right and
let's see do we have any Turkish food in here that's going to be the real question
pop that thing right open. Oh wow! oh yeah you can just wow any way you want to do it
oh I found a way it doesn't open but like this all right pop that like that and then
we shall take a look over here, a chicken panzer roadie that sounds wild chicken wrap.
What do you recommend here for Turkish food? Actually I cannot see any Turkish food.
Oh, they're continental but it looks fine I do have to say it looks really good it looks amazing. Yeah
fair point. All right well guys tonight might be a pizza vlog you want to know I'm not hating on
it because I love pizza and I need to have pizza in every single country that I go to

food then right all right all right there we go yeah. I'll do one is Iskender kebab pizza please.

All right see you guys I was about to literally grab this pomegranate juice
and then we had a street performance pop up out of nowhere that is why I love Istanbul
because you never know what's about to happen. So, that let's try out the pomegranate juice.
Wow! that was tasty. Yum! Wait did you just oh my god I turned my head off
you imagine I'm just kidding yeah yeah yeah.
Wow! I can tell you guys when you get a blast of pomegranate juice in your system like that
it like wakes you up revitalizes you I'm ready to get some za. Guys look at that the food has
arrived that is a kebab pizza and what is this white sauce. Mozzarella. Oh that's mozzarella. No.
Oh! yogurt. Wow! All right so that's gonna be quite the mail what do you have over there
that's the chicken. Yeah and like this suspicious item. Oh the suspicious item over there we got a
little pepperoni za with what jalapeños. I think it's jalapenos yeah. Oh yeah. So we are going to be
feasting let's dig in. Here we go guys the first bite of the kebab pizza.
Wow! that is fantastic. Oh my god! it literally does kind of taste like a kebab.
We have that mix of pizza in there it's a really unique one,
it seems like there's more of a very light sauce on there
that's a bit more oily and it's ultra ultra thin crust but very delicious. Wow!
He's eating it the proper way fork and knife for the pizza man that is so proper of you.
As we say bro, how's that chicken looks like you're working hard to get through there. I am working
hard but it tastes good. Yeah the taste is good. All right, all right what are you guys gonna do
you gotta try this I haven't tried the yogurt sauce yet dip it all right we'll do a little dipsy.
I don't know what sauce it is.
I don't know is that yogurt.
It's got a nice flavor to it.
Oh, yeah. That's all that matters guys.
Let's get the reactions grab yourself a nice delish slice bro.
Oh, yeah get ready to have your taste buds thanking you for the next week.
You know I'm about to fold it. Oh, there we go burrito style that's how it's done sock then.
Oh, yeah that's a proper bite right there that's gonna take him about 30 seconds
to reply and give his response I know those types of bites when you take such a big bite
and then you're like wait a second I still got to talk about how this tastes and they're like I'm
still chewing, I'm still chewing. Man that's good man. Yeah that is good isn't it. Wow! the yogurt.
Yeah, that is real good let's go bro you're up, you're up it's time you gotta try this thing out.
This is the smallest one. Oh no, you get yourself a big one make it count. I'm not a big meat fan.
Oh, okay. Fair enough, fair enough can't argue with that and he's going in the kebab pizza has entered
and oh he's analysing those flavors. I'm not a big meat fan but I'll give
that a 8 out of 10. 8 out of 10. Wow! All right that's very good very good.
Yeah, that's how it goes. So guys now we're gonna toss we got a little piece of Mahod's chicken
here we're gonna toss that thing right on there and we're gonna see if we can pick it up and,
oh! baby. What's the verdict?
Wow! That chicken makes you work for it tough piece of chicken, a good piece of chicken.
Definitely gives another taste to it. Yeah, yeah. It adds to the flavors doesn't it.
It blends in very well. Very very well yeah. Here we go,
such a unique flavor for a pizza like honestly when the when the yogurt like adds into the pizza
like infuses into it it literally tastes like you're eating a kebab way more like
a kebab than a pizza that's what I'd relate it to so it fits the name let's put it that
way. All right so next on the menu we're gonna be trying out the spicy pepperoni pizza here,
oh! That one's quite nice, the pepper and it's a salami or pepperoni?
Like a beef pepperoni, oh that is very nice that goes down smooth.
I like that I'm not even sure I was trying to think which one I like better they both have
like a very unique flavor to them the perfect pizza would be half kebab half
pepperoni pizza maybe toss a little bit of the chicken on there and then you got the ultimate
delish entrée. So guys for an entire meal three people do that's only 348
so that comes out to like 25-22. 22 US dollars. Yeah that's incredible 22 US dollars guys to
have three entrees got a couple beverages in there as well and yeah I'm feeling content the
meal was so good. What'd you guys think of the meal? It's really good like I am full. Yeah, desserts?
No chance. All right all right and you. Hit the hit the spot man I'm full. Yeah. Ready to get some sleep.
