Dear AHT: Kizilkayalar Hamburger in Istanbul, Turkey

After spending a few weeks in Istanbul I found that this is what most locals said was the best place to find Doner, just take a right after you get off the ferry and you will see the long line :)

I ended up eating a large portion of my meals at street vendors during my time in Istanbul. The doner sandwich at Kizilkayalar was also very good- I had the lamb in wrap form although you could get it on a roll or sliced bread.

Some of my other favorite street items were TOST (essentially a grilled cheese), pide (which can be a number of things on rolled out bread, my favorite being the "pizza" version in the shape of a canoe), and the custom cold cut sandwiches.

If you're walking along the Bosphorous between the shuttle boats and Dolmabahce Palace there is a guy with a red sandwich cart serving up tremendous fare. Ask for everything and you'll get a monster of a sandwich for about $1.

The English translation on their website is AWESOME. And by AWESOME I mean HILARIOUS. I love the "atom" drink that "adds more power to your power".

That does look like the perfect post-drunken-all-night-stupidfest food.

Food that drunk people like scares me...

I would try it though.

I've had this! We called them Taksim-burgers and ate them after long nights out at the bars.
