Recommend Restaurants and authentic Turkish Food in Istanbul here. Since i was in Istanbul before 4 Years i can recommend eating:
Midye
Kokorec
Cag Kebab
Yaprak Doner
Lamb Sheesh-Kebab
Wet Burger (You can't get enough of These!)
Baklava from the best Baklava Maker: "Karaköy Güllüoğlu"
You never had Baklava before in your life when you haven't eaten from this Guy! It's nothing like the ones you know from your Supermarkets or House-Made ones!
Turkish Ice Cream
Loqum (Turkish Gummy Bears with Coconut, Chocolate filling, Nut filling) Freshly made in Front of your eyes!
And the best sweet of Türkiye is Turkish Honey with KAYMAK with fresh baked Bread. Be careful this is better than any Drugs! You won't get enough of this deadly combo!!
