Istanbul’s street food is a reflection of the city’s diverse culture, offering a wide range of flavors from savory to sweet. Sample simit, a sesame-encrusted bread that’s the Turkish answer to the bagel; indulge in döner, meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie and served in bread with fresh salad; and satisfy your sweet tooth with Turkish delight, a confection made from starch and sugar, flavored with rosewater, lemon, or mastic. The tour also ventures into the spice bazaars, where the air is fragrant with the scents of cumin, saffron, mint, and more, offering a sensory journey through the flavors that define Turkish cuisine. This culinary exploration is not just about tasting food; it’s an immersion into the vibrant street life of Istanbul, offering insights into the city’s rich history and cultural traditions.
