🌐 On the Street Food Story channel, we visit different restaurants in Izmir, Istanbul, and other cities in Turkey, sharing their street food stories and taking you from the restaurant kitchen to the moment the food is served. We explore authentic kitchens and beyond—Turkish, Arabic, Indian, Korean, Russian, and more, all in Turkey! Join us to experience a unique street food story every time.

✅ Forget everything you know about Fish and Chips! In Izmir, the ultimate fried fish experience is Balık Ekmek (Fish & Bread), the legendary Turkish street food you have to try. When you walk among Turkish restaurants in a seaside city like Istanbul or Izmir, the smell of grilling fish guides you.

I followed that scent to an amazing Izmir fish restaurant to explore their complete Turkish kitchen. What I found at this Turkish restaurant is next level:
perfectly fried Sardalya balık (Sandine)
Uskumru balık (Mackerel)
and Mezgit balık (Haddock) served in a dish or crispy bread.

✅ But this Izmir fish restaurant offers more than just all kinds of fish. Don’t miss their famous Midye (Mussels)! If you’ve ever wondered midye dolma nasıl yapılır (how to make stuffed mussels), you need to see how they prepare their incredible Midye Dolma. My only wish? I really wish they had Balık Çorbası (Fish Soup) on the menu! It would be the perfect way to start this incredible seafood feast.

🎦 In this video, I discover: Why Balık Ekmek is Izmir’s answer to Fish and Chips. A taste of the legendary Midye and other Turkish street food. How the experts make Midye Dolma. This is a Turkish street food adventure you don’t want to miss.
