its their trick to scam tourists they dropping their brushes infront of u and when u say hey u dropped ur brush to help them and they offer u ''free cleaning '' as thank you but they are asking money at the end
that trick of dropping the brush is quite common, they do it on purpose. They trick you and ask for money after giving a fake cleaning to the shoes. He lied about his children, operation etc as well. Love your channel, a Turkish friend living in London
Turkeys economy is absolutely wrecked but that water cost £3 yikes.. that's overpriced. However if you are tourist £5 for one of these massive baked tatties is not bad when you compare it with the prices and food portions in the UK. A turkish resident can't afford this with minimum wage from a touristic place like this.
@@kieran420peanut If he paid 530 liras in total he didnt pay 3£ for a bottle of water. At 3.15 in the video you can see that “Kumpir”(what he ate) is priced at 260 liras, and thats only for one and he ordered two of them.That puts him at 520 liras meaning he paid 10 liras for water.(He said you can have as much as you want but i think he confused it with fillings, i looked up the place and they dont offer unlimited kumpir, its typical for kumpir places to offer unlimited fillings for your kumpir at a fixed price though) Now is this tourist price ? Not really because he wasnt charged a price locals arent charged, any local who ate there wouldve paid the same price for what he ate, but because he is in Istanbul and in Istiklal specifically which is a touristic landmark(both for local and foreign tourists) the prices are more expensive compared to other parts of Istanbul or any other city in Turkey. For example in my city kumpir costs 150 liras and a bottle of water is 5 liras if you buy it from a market like Lidl, its normal for a bottle of water to be 10 liras in places to it though. Now it is expensive yes, but knowing that its also more expensive having a shop in a touristic area due to rent i’d say its not unreasonable.
Just shows how good doing reviews in different countries is, seeing how other countries takeaways are doing their thing. No doubt after this review countless uk establishments will be copying that potato mix up idea. Never seen that before looked gorgeous.
@@PlaytoriaGold there is a video about a man who started kumpir business in Istanbul. The man says that he saw jacket potatoes in the UK and then decided to open his own kumpir shop in Istanbul in 1990's
This is far better than spudman, no comparison. These are nice ingredients, spudman is just tinned shit being sold to idiots willing to queue for hours for a potato
@@fandangobrandango7864 i bet he doesn’t. He’s opening tins in the back of his van, out of sight, and emptying them in to other containers. Hes also mixing multiple brands, so people don’t recognise the flavours as much
SPUDMAN still looks good. It's difficult to everything from scratch, no matter what business you're in. Eg, chip shops use primarily frozen products too. You don't see the general public really complaining. I still give him credit for the rebirth of the jacket potato. Let his customers do the talking for him!
Like a true Englishman he just goes into a foreign country and expects everyone to speak English. If they don't understand him he just speaks louder. That said, the potatoes looked very good.
That jacket potato looks banging! Almost like how my dad makes a double stuffed one by scooping out the flesh, add ingredients, then put it back in the skin.
I love how Danny was just picking the random toppings by color. It reminds me of lampoons Vegas vacation where Clark and Cousin Eddy go to the $2 buffet 😆 🤣
These jacket potatoes are the best I have ever had, It makes the ones they serve in Britain a pale comparison, That they whip the poato into a smooth creamy fluffy mash, even before they add the toppings of yuor choice is amazing. Istiklal Caddesi is one of the most expensive places to eat in the country, better off to get off the beaten track and pay half.
I love the way they do their spuds, thanks for sharing as it's great to see how others do it. But I love the British way too, there's no need to copy in my opinion. A decent chilli and homemade coleslaw for me every time.
Amazing jacket potatoes - making my mouth water just from watching. Oh if only I could catch a plane to Istanbul. Although I'm a bit worried about cameraman, I'm glad they didn't take him away - that would have been bad. Glad you are both ok. 😄
The negativity in these comments sections under Danny’s super positive videos just show how jealous people are of someone who is living a positive happy life and not moaning
i have sat here drinking and watching eating challenges on RUclips ALL MORNING THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO THATS MADE ME FEEL HUNGRY so it must be fairly good
Best jacket potato’s ever in Italy. Beauty-muss they always mix fresh mozzarella with the potato and salted butter 🇮🇹 ❤ 🥔 if you ask they’ll put back in oven for extra crunch
hahhhahahahahha ive never laughed so hard....Danny you got done with the brush dropping......seriously thank you...its comedy gold !!!! But yeah thats an old scam from a few years back now.....
The shoe-shine man saw Danny coming from a mile away.
shoes aren't even dirty
danny is just too nice

The shoe shining was the biggest scam on this show as of yet.
You fogot about salt bae a couple of episodes ago.
They drop it on purpose, this is why you read about places before going there :p
Hilarious 😅 you should know better in Istanbul!
Dont go to Turkey

Getting those pearly white trainers shined with a shammy leather has to be funniest thing on chanel yet 😂😂😂😂
Lmaooo
Danny you fell for it….the brush dropping was a deliberate act, everyone heading to Istanbul soon just be careful 😂😂😂
cant believe he fell for the scam🤣🤣
This man can’t talk at all when he’s about to eat. His mouth is watering so much at the food. Got the best job ever!
Danny, the scammers gift that keeps on giving 😂 Saltbae’s brother, the shoe shiner and now the tourist price for a baked potato 🥔
130 lira is about 3 pounds mate

Aww Danny's so lovely, what a genuine, gorgeous guy❤️
Cannot believe we caught the entire brush drop scam on camera.
Danny you have a big heart! I would have walked away from those 2 gents. Those potatoes looked mighty tasty!
Cameraman with brand new TNs on and bossman trying to clean them 😂😂
Spudman and spudbros arent even close to the diamond standard of these guys! Million miles from!
the shoe shine man then went around corner got in his Lambogini and off to stock market
Those Jacket spuds look Amazing. Can’t deny it.
😮😊..
Out of all the things you could get in Istanbul and you get a jacket potato 😂
bruh kumpirs are super popular atm over there
@@stadiumarcadium2351 they’re also popular in the uk, were he lives
Disgusting @@stadiumarcadium2351
They are completely different in form factor… did you even watch the video 🤦♂️ also he has already done meat twice in Istanbul
@@Nooticus it’s still a jacket Potato at the end of the day though isn’t it
Potato salad on a jacket potato 😂 You couldn't make it up.
Reminds me of the sheer horror on the face of my other half when I planned to cook mash and chips in the same meal! Didn't make that mistake again!
Umm... Potatoe Salad? Do you live in the UK?
😂😂👍
I had completely forgot about falling victim to the brush drop scam until seeing this. Don't worry Danny, it happens to the best of us hahaha
common knowledge then? thanks for the tip!
@@gewglesux Wasn't common knowledge to me at the time of it happening.
@@Ree93Ree I'll keep an eye out for this when i go there..
Ahhhhh... The potato crackling never gets the props it deserves
Why haven't we got take aways like this in the UK? This video even puts the existing baked potato places to shame here.
And it's so funny that the guy who started the kumpir (jacket potato) business in Turkey actually brought it from the Uk 😂😂😂
You have lmfao he did a video on it

Tasty 🤤😋 who remembers Spud you like late 80s early 90s a proper favourite back then
I remember! There used to be one at White Rose Shopping Centre in Leeds! Have they all closed down!?
Danny fell for the shoe cleaner scam 😂
This is far better than spudman, no comparison. These are nice ingredients, spudman is just tinned shit being sold to idiots willing to queue for hours for a potato
Correct. Spudman proves you can fool all of the people all of the time.
Spudman makes his own chilli and curry now.

people in istanbul speak some english its literally a basic requirement.
Classic British arrogance 😅

If they drop something just walk away, that tricks been going for years now
It felt like a setup from the start. I don't think it is something Danny would do as it is not his style.
Proper potatoe that danny mate one of best spuds on channel surely
Look how High that kid with the Lloyd Christmas haircut is!! Lmao 🤣
Just over halfway through watching the video, i can see this will be a solid 10. These jacket potato's look way better than the ones from Spudman.
Lived here in Turkey 8 yrs best food ever m8 moved from UK never going back food so simple cheap full of flavour Turks know how to cook enjoy 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
You lived there for 8 years. Your shoes must be shiny.😂🏴

Danny's heart is so huge, his tips and donations are amazing. Just concerned Danny has not lost weight
Yes he has 😂 literally watch a video from 3 years ago and come back to me
Looked amazing worth the 10/10
That Danny rivals the time you were cornered in a carpark by ice cream man charged you £2 for a cone when you thought it was free. 😂
Oh Christ, don't bring that up again! So many of the trolls and haters piled onto him after that simple mix-up! 😂
0:41 lovely bubbly jublyy 🤣
Lmao 😂😂 cameraman like wtf mine are pristine clean, them brushes ain't touching my new creps!
Big up to cameraman 😎👌

Jacket potatoes looks bang on
Him explaining chorizo has to be the highlight of this episode

Jacket potato saved my liiiiiiiiife, baked potato showed me the waaaaaaay
Haha fell for the ooh I dropped my brush scam
potatoes are massively underrated compared to rice and pasta
Highly skilled chefs there mashing the spuds up, very tricky.
😂😂😂

Jacket spud wars. What has this world come to?😅 🥔
That sausage that looked like hot dog but tasted like spicy salama look proper nice. Not just a jacket potatoe but a delightful meal
Poor Danny getting done by the regular shoeshine scam in Istanbul 😂
Nahh.. dont let them touch the sneaks!.🙂
Best jacket potatoes Ive seen on this channel.
never tell them they droped there bush if u know u know
Love your generosity and kindness. Taties looked yummy 😋 x
The accidently drop the shoe brush in front of the tourist trick
This is far and beyond better than anything in the UK lol
oldest trick in istanbul the old brush drop poor danny 🤣
I knew the drop scam existed but I’ve never knew shoe shiners did it as well. Pretty interesting to see it in action!
You got shoe brush scammed within 30 seconds of filming 😆
When you say no stick to it and they will evetually get it
Glad you got round to trying kumpir takes baked spuds to the next level
Fell for the old brush drop routine. Lol
When my kids were little, this is the way i used to do them, just mash them up inside, then grate cheese so that it melted, that was back in the 80s 😂
Best jacket potato’s ever in Italy. Beauty-muss they always mix fresh mozzarella with the potato and salted butter 🇮🇹 ❤ 🥔
if you ask they’ll put back in oven for extra crunch
slating Spud man an Spud brothers and 2:56 never mind all this crispy skin! 8:52 look at these nice crispy skins 😂😂 what a guy
No way he’s brought his table and chairs to Istanbul 😂
5:40 why are the other people filming 😂😂
That shoe shine is a trick. They drop the brush and after try to force you into getting your shoes cleaned
hahhhahahahahha ive never laughed so hard....Danny you got done with the brush dropping......seriously thank you...its comedy gold !!!! But yeah thats an old scam from a few years back now.....
The case of the missing sausage. 14.15 it was there...14.33 and it's gone? Fantastic work cameraman!!!
I think dropping that brush may have been a "tactical drop" 😆
They do baked potato just like that in sunny Beach Bulgaria beautiful and creamy 😋 👌👍
spud man just for the fact he is a person the world needs
Good monthly salary for Istanbul makes those potatoes cost a days pay for a local at 530 Lira.
Good to see you around bradford today! Was going to vome say hello but im but you get it alot and didnt want to bother you.
Danny, please always let out a big fart after every meal, it’s obnoxiously hilarious. I was hoping you’d fart on odd job Alfie after the pie butty 😂😂😂
I used to love Turkey but this is why I don't go anymore. Soo much pressure from locals
The shoe brush drop is a typical scam... never pick up their brush 😂
Scammed to the boots literally 😂
That’s a proper ‘Tato, no tinned crap like spudman 🥔
It's all tinned in Turkey.
They cannot even keep their own shoes clean and this is their hustle 🙄
You Should try Iskender Kebab and Pideli Köfte (meatballs on top of pita(cheap version of Iskender kebab)) in Bursa.
So £6.50 a spud!!
Poor Danny getting scammed in 4k 😂
Bro fell for the oldest scam there 😂
Not the scam on camera within 2 minutes 😂
Oh my days!! Maybe I'm wrong, but is this the first video I've seen from you not on your own table? If I'm wrong I apologize my friend......
Camera man done the right thing lol
Great Vlog Danny ,and The G$# Word Has Improved . I Will Award You With A THUMS UP , Great Guy.
There tater whipping technique is through the roof!!
