I'm a chef, my speciality is Indian generally. I admire the creativity of chefs from all over the world, and have a passion for food. But when it comes to meat I can truly say the Turkish take it to a whole new level with their various cooking methods. Perhaps one day I can go and learn.
Mark you are so amazing. I love the way you explain and narrate your experience. I never miss any of your posts. I enjoyed watching your Turkish series. I definitely want to visit these places and try out all the meat preparation, it's mouth watering. Thank you Mark.
I absolutely LOVE how The Turks feed you a taste from hand to mouth. We Americans might think that's too intimate but, it's SO very loving! The pride and the wanting to share with others. Magnificent!! ❤❤❤
WEll be care ful dont end up like jamal kashoggie turkey and azerbaijan have horrible human rights records and abuse records! Azerbaijan is an ethnic cleansing regime! ANTI CHRISTIAN! Is it worth it for some meat?
Ülkemize yeniden gelmenize çok memnun olduk. Sanki bizden biriymiş gibi olan hoş tavrınızı takdir ediyoruz.. Önümüzdeki günlerde, daha güzel lezzetlerle buluşmanızı merakla bekleyeceğiz..
Türkiye (is that the name now sorry?) looks a beautiful amazing place. I would love to visit one day and enjoy culture and not be part of the tourism a lot of Spain are protesting against at the mo.
They have the best meat dishes there in turkey 🇹🇷😍 wow that’s an extreme meat tour for sure Mark. Love it and love your videos all the years I’ve been watching you. Please keep uploading
No. These are the first cities that come to mind when it comes to food in Turkey. Gazi Antep, Hatay, Şanlı Urfa, Adana... Istanbul does not have its own cuisine. These provinces are the famous places for the dishes you taste.
O-My-Goodness!!! So far, this is my favorite episode of this tour!! Each & every restaurant is astronomical no kidding. I'm now convinced that when it comes to preparing lamb, Istanbul is the MVP champions. Me being a meat lover, appreciates every aspect of how the chefs prepares, serves, & execute these fantastic dishes. The chef at the 2nd location is phenomenal on how he caters to his guests ensuring a pleasant experience for all. When it comes to roasting lamb on a spit or underground, Istanbul is the Rolls Royce class in comparison. I'm so amazed with the wood fire ovens & charcoal grills but that underground oven is officially 1st class state-of-the art winner!! The way it's engineered using a pulley crane & zipline is pure innovation handling levels of racks of selected meats is genius. The meatballs looks so delicious & satisfying omgoodness!! Honestly, each restaurant displayed looks astonishing from the first to the last. No way I can be a vegetarian living around so many options of fantastic tender meats. Thanks Mark this was a slam dunk for sure lol!! Happy Father's Day & wishing you safe travels and many blessings always my friend!! Cheers!! 🌶🍖🥩🌯🥗🥛
Thanks you Mark Turkey is different level to compare my country I am already in love what I am seeing it can't wait to visit that beautiful country and the people seems so humble and welcoming
Watching you from Bali and my mouth is watering!!!! I cooked Lahmacun today with my home made pepper paste. Was delicious, but these lamb dishes omg. ❤
Mark, you always eat meat meals when came to Türkiye. But our vegetable dishes are so good, too. You must try Imambayıldı, mücver, eggplant dishes and mezes, too.
Omg Mark! The last place you visited , an ‘OCAKBAŞİ’ was exactly the category of restaurant I visited in Ankara 4 years ago!!! At the time, I was simply looking for a meat-centric place for a late dinner .. didn’t think too much of it though it was memorable then because of how hospitable they were while I struggled to make sense of the menu and placed my order! And now here with your video, I get to relive that experience and what was it that made it great, and learn that I had stumbled across a truly Turkish ‘grill-front’ type restaurant! You’re the RUclipsr that keeps teaching me things - which probably means, its time to relook at your archive of videos too :P Teşekkür ederim Mark ❤
It was a great pleasure to watch this video! Thank you for showcasing the unique flavors and cultural richness of Türkiye so beautifully. I could almost taste the dishes through the screen. Great job Mark.
Dear Mark Wiens as a Turkish Citizen I loved and got sometimes emotional of all your videos that you posted about my Country, they were very lovely. I think you enjoyed our Country and it's delicious food also. I think this is the end of the Türkiye Food Serious. Which country will you be visiting next? I am eagerly waiting. Btw, the music in the background at the end of your video was very touchy.
❤ Very nice comment. My friends from Australia (They are originally from Syria) visit Turkey often, and send me photos. It has been a desire of mine to visit Turkey in the future. If the world's peace can hold out, then I plan to visit Turkey in 2026 on my way to Azerbaijan. I love Turkish food, and grew up myself on Mediterranean food, as my family is Sicilian.
Mark, I've been watching you for years, since before Micah was born and I love your videos. The passion you have for food and cultures is beautiful and I love seeing all the foods you get to enjoy. So enjoyable and educational at the same time. Your videos are part of my kids schooling at home so they can see everything.
Appreciate you Mark for being such a great host on this epic trip; you really capture the atmosphere of the moment; I feel right beside you; wishing you many more safe and wonderful trips ahead my friend; with love :))
Indeed, it is the art of cooking. Turkey amazes me all the time, in all its aspects. It is spectacular! Their hygiene principle when handling food is topnotch one.

Hi mark following you since you had 2 lakh subscribers it is just amazing you are the same all down 5 years humble , down to earth , your knowledge for food is amazing .. my blessings to you and family.. such a joy to see you growing.. I used to watch your videos when I was going to lowest phase of my life.. it helped me calm down.. great content
I'm currently visiting Istanbul. I go to Zubeyir regularly after seeing your first video about it years ago. I've been there twice this week, and probably over a dozen times since 2020. Thanks for the videos Mark :)
I remember last year I was in a istanbul for 5 days and I went to sehzade cag kebab 3 times! It was that good. Im going back to istanbul in 2 weeks and best believe Im going there again for at least another 3 times. I miss it whenver Im back in the UK.
Mark this food looks so fantastic. I could just taste it right now. I’m in Massachusetts this place. I must go to everything you shown on this episode is unbelievable. It looks so fantastic. So delicious so circulating so delicious. I can’t even explain how is making me feel watching you eat that lamb oh my goodness it and the chefs are fantastic chefs they know their business and I’m impressed. Oh my goodness, turkey turkey turkey Istanbul very nice. Very nice. Very nice.

@@pauldouglas4587 the amount of stuff you have seen only scratches the surface. Chinesse is more of a closed culture. Anatolia has the oldest civilizations in history plus always targeted because of its strategic positioning.

So it is very hard to go against variety turkish kitchen offers.The reason why its not as well regarded in world is because of bad advertising.
Went to Istanbul just a few ago weeks and yes the Turks truly are kings of meat. I visited Spice Bazaar and ordered exactly the same meatballs at the restaurant Kofteci Yasar! It's simply irresistible! 😋
Those who give thumbs down to Turkish food are plain ignorant. Go ask Mark which food tastes the best. He will choose the turkish food without hesitation. The herbs the process are bar none. Be fair folks!

Dear Mark, after 8 years you have come back to our country. I think the next time you come won't be so long. Because Büryan kebab will enter your dreams. When you want to eat dessert, Künefe will come to mind.
Anybody noticed that Mark never takes the piece that’s on the side? If there is 1 2 3 he will take 2. If there is 1 2 3 4 he will take 2 or 3. Same goes when something is in one piece, he tries to eat from the middle. At 52:15 he didn’t cut the corner of the knafeh, like the other guy but he cut and ate from the middle.
Is it not so very cool and respectful,, the owner of the restaurant loves food and life so much,, he fed you the first and best bites... it's honorable, respectful.. and it says something about happiness and food.. complete respect to his local and Thai friend...what a great experience ❤❤❤
Thanks for another great video on Turkish food. :) It's time for you to finally try the legendary Iskender Kebap at a proper Iskender Kebap restaurant. Also for döner you should try Bayramoğlu İstanbul or Dönerci Şahin Usta which is located near grand bazaar. Probably best places to eat döner in Istanbul.
Tender lamb baked in a clay pot, flambeed dishes, & heated knafeh served with ground pistachios at Akdeniz, Hatay Sofrasi restaurant, loved the large breads with Mark's name on it, looks like a grand place to enjoy a meal (finally finished video).
Mark! I am having a very hard time watching your series of videos from turkey! Alot ! Man, all I see calls me! Wow.. you are so lucky to taste all those dishes! I love lamb! Such friendly people who are so committed to cooking! It shows! ✌️👌♥️
I say this as a Turk, I haven't been to Istanbul yet, but Istanbul is a unique city in the world. It should be appreciated by all humanity. If you want a different taste, different culture and a mystical trip, not only the Turks, but all humanity, you can't find it anywhere other than Istanbul.
Of course...It's the only city on earth established on two continents, Only city on earth which used to be the capital of three empires in history (Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman)...imagine the level of food fusion
It's a city where the food and restaurant scene is also dominated by Kurds who are known for their kebabs, dumplings and also baklava. Truly a magnificent city with a nice mixture.
@@newleft2254 Kurds are an Aryan people, they speak 70% Persian! So in which Iranian city did you see these dishes? Just because you can cook it doesn't make you the owner of that food.
@@Peyp59 I speak Kurdish and I don't understand a word of Persian LMAO what planet are you on? "Persian". Go and educate yourself. Kurds are an Iranic group of people who are Indo -European. That has nothing to do with Persia. Like every other group in the Middle East of course people are related and have similarities. Just like German and English. Doesn't mean they're the same. Kurds are Indo-European and Turks are further Eastern, Turkic, along Central Asia and even parts of China. Doesn't make you Chinese, does it?
@@newleft2254 This surreal world of yours has turned into a disease. What the hell is Kurdish kebab and baklava? haha. Also, is it a Kurdish city? You've definitely gone crazy with an inferiority complex.
I really loved this video. No stupid challenge, no my cuisine is better than yours, no but better or but cheaper Weissman stuff. Just GOOD FOOD, plain and simple. I love it .
Turkarna är nummer 1 när det gäller mat, särskilt kebab. På grund av dig får varje video mig att må illa i magen. Och jag gör omedelbart en falsk kebab och stillar min hunger. "Çağ kebab" i den här videon var legendarisk. Den sista Adana-kebaben tog dig till andra värlen. "Mangal başı" stekte dig, precis som kebaberna. Dude, du är legendarisk!
Mark me and my partner we are now in Istanbul and we have followed your suggestions about the food in this video, today we been to KOFTECI YASAR Was amazing 🤩 Tomorrow we try Siirt Seref Buryan 1892 Thanks a lot
I absolutely love your friend Joel he just has a beautiful personality just like yours you guys really make me so glad I can see you on RUclips thank you for showing us the world because so many of us can't get to see these beautiful places. P.s. let us see more of your best friend Joel
I thought I was one day going to visit Turkey because of the unconditional love of and for animals, especially cats, but Mark has given me serious incentive. Great food and wonderful people!
Despite the terrible guide who was in your Izmir vlog, Ugur didn't disappoint and once again he took you to the really unique places just like he did in Gaziantep food tour. I even didn't know about the kofta place. I will definitely give a visit to that place in my next Istanbul trip. Great video!
wow mark , food looks unbelievable , wish is was in the US so I don't h ave to travel a millions miles , so great mark great video and your friends !!!

Great food and well presented mark 🏴👍
Turkey is one of the most delicious foods. I need to visit it one day.❤
Awesome job mark with the food vlog drop a like for you
Thanks!
I‘m speechless 🤤
This Kitchen is WoOoOoW😍
Turkarna är nummer 1 när det gäller mat, särskilt kebab. På grund av dig får varje video mig att må illa i magen. Och jag gör omedelbart en falsk kebab och stillar min hunger. "Çağ kebab" i den här videon var legendarisk. Den sista Adana-kebaben tog dig till andra värlen. "Mangal başı" stekte dig, precis som kebaberna. Dude, du är legendarisk!
Mark me and my partner we are now in Istanbul and we have followed your suggestions about the food in this video, today we been to KOFTECI YASAR
Was amazing 🤩
Tomorrow we try Siirt Seref Buryan 1892
Thanks a lot

Great video Mark
I thought I was one day going to visit Turkey because of the unconditional love of and for animals, especially cats, but Mark has given me serious incentive. Great food and wonderful people!
Mark always tilts his head when he tries delicious treat for his taste buds😅
It's the dream state where there only exists taste. :) Kind of like different dimension.
Despite the terrible guide who was in your Izmir vlog, Ugur didn't disappoint and once again he took you to the really unique places just like he did in Gaziantep food tour. I even didn't know about the kofta place. I will definitely give a visit to that place in my next Istanbul trip. Great video!
Thank you for video❤❤❤❤❤
