(Wide-eyed)

2
00:00:03,537 --> 00:00:04,020
Is it delicious?

3
00:00:04,020 --> 00:00:04,960
Hmm, it's good!

4
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:05,913
It's tasty!

(Hong Kong Lunch)

6
00:00:07,153 --> 00:00:09,720
(Istanbul, Turkiye)
Hello, this is Istanbul lunch

7
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:10,820
When you look on the internet,

8
00:00:10,821 --> 00:00:12,601
of course, you have to eat kebab when you come to Turkey

9
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:14,200
Other kebabs are just a bit...,

10
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:15,160
Ah... they were okay,

11
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:16,240
but not so much that,

12
00:00:16,241 --> 00:00:17,548
you must eat them here...

13
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:19,000
There were many unexpected tasting reviews

14
00:00:19,180 --> 00:00:20,880
This kebab, though,

15
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,040
everyone says you have to try it in Istanbul

16
00:00:23,460 --> 00:00:24,461
So we’re off to

17
00:00:24,461 --> 00:00:25,961
 find the best spot

18
00:00:26,140 --> 00:00:27,320
and see what this famous kebab

19
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:28,760
 is all about

20
00:00:29,022 --> 00:00:30,060
(Quiet alley)

21
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:30,940
Wow!

22
00:00:31,034 --> 00:00:31,840
(Exterior)

23
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:36,480
It's really tiny

24
00:00:36,481 --> 00:00:37,328
There's really no place to sit

25
00:00:37,328 --> 00:00:38,520
(Takeout specialty)

26
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,020
Your favorite, mackerel

27
00:00:40,020 --> 00:00:41,620
I really love mackerel

28
00:00:41,620 --> 00:00:42,540
So I'm really looking forward to it

29
00:00:42,540 --> 00:00:44,220
Honestly, even before coming to Istanbul,

30
00:00:44,221 --> 00:00:45,320
-I sang about this.
-Yeah

31
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:46,440
Mackerel kebab

32
00:00:46,856 --> 00:00:48,076
(The only seat in the restaurant)

33
00:00:50,239 --> 00:00:51,699
(Grill once, then wrap)

34
00:00:53,540 --> 00:00:55,520
Actually, making it is really simple

35
00:00:56,180 --> 00:00:57,860
Just grill the mackerel,

36
00:00:58,420 --> 00:00:59,140
and just put it in

37
00:00:59,420 --> 00:01:00,920
-What should we add?
-Wouldn't we add vegetables?

38
00:01:00,921 --> 00:01:01,455
Yeah

39
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:04,700
It's true

40
00:01:05,074 --> 00:01:06,674
(Lots of vegetables)

41
00:01:08,794 --> 00:01:09,580
Add sauce once

42
00:01:11,903 --> 00:01:12,903
(Arrange)

43
00:01:13,978 --> 00:01:14,818
(Spice powder)

44
00:01:16,094 --> 00:01:17,054
(Add sauce once more)

45
00:01:18,271 --> 00:01:19,331
(Card payment available)

46
00:01:23,055 --> 00:01:23,940
(Expecting)

47
00:01:23,940 --> 00:01:25,960
Ah, just seeing it made me so happy

48
00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:28,060
The famous mackerel I've been craving is right here

49
00:01:28,060 --> 00:01:30,260
-Is it that much?
-I'm so looking forward to it now

50
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:31,980
The price is very reasonable

51
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:33,780
One for 220 TRY

52
00:01:33,780 --> 00:01:35,440
With how much prices have gone up in Turkey,

53
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:36,500
this price?

54
00:01:37,141 --> 00:01:38,096
 Honestly, pretty solid

55
00:01:38,096 --> 00:01:39,556
(Value for money leader)

56
00:01:41,277 --> 00:01:42,140
(Surprised)

57
00:01:42,140 --> 00:01:43,580
-Delicious!
-Yeah, delicious!

58
00:01:43,580 --> 00:01:44,840
It's tasty

59
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,300
There's really a whole mackerel inside

60
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:48,981
Oh, with just one fish..

61
00:01:48,981 --> 00:01:50,000
One chunk..

62
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,220
A whole one

63
00:01:51,220 --> 00:01:51,921
I saw them grilling earlier,

64
00:01:51,921 --> 00:01:53,763
they debone each one,

65
00:01:54,460 --> 00:01:56,060

so it's super easy to eat

66
00:01:56,060 --> 00:01:58,054
It's a kebab with just boneless fillet

67
00:01:58,054 --> 00:01:59,334
(Boneless mackerel)

68
00:02:00,380 --> 00:02:01,760
But in my opinion..

69
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,500
Koreans eat a lot of mackerel, right?

70
00:02:04,501 --> 00:02:05,260
Yeah

71
00:02:05,260 --> 00:02:06,820
So they might like it

72
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,380
But do Hong Kong people

73
00:02:08,380 --> 00:02:10,000
really think this is tasty?

74
00:02:10,209 --> 00:02:11,389
(Thinking)

75
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,120
We do eat mackerel

76
00:02:13,121 --> 00:02:14,857
but not that much, right?

77
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,000
-Hong Kong people don't grill mackerel like this
-Yeah

78
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,860
This concept might be unfamiliar

79
00:02:19,860 --> 00:02:21,160
It's not fishy

80
00:02:21,161 --> 00:02:21,746
At all

81
00:02:21,746 --> 00:02:22,600
(Fresh)

82
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,300
-I think we ordered two well
-Right?

83
00:02:24,860 --> 00:02:26,080
Even the salad

84
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,380
-It smells a bit like perilla leaves
-Yeah

85
00:02:28,380 --> 00:02:29,320
A bit of mint scent..

86
00:02:29,321 --> 00:02:30,760
Yeah, there's a bit of mint scent

87
00:02:31,620 --> 00:02:32,780
It’s like wrapping grilled mackerel

88
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,600
- in perilla leaves
-Yeah

89
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:36,655
The sauce on the side is a bit like kimchi

90
00:02:36,655 --> 00:02:37,640
(Perfect harmony)

91
00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:39,540
As expected, this is a menu Koreans like

92
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,880
When Koreans see it, they all say it's delicious

93
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,260
It was really tasty

94
00:02:43,540 --> 00:02:45,020
But the shop isn't that big

95
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,520
There's only one table outside

96
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,960
So we're sitting and eating now because there are no people

97
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,280
It seems like most people get takeout

98
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,420
It's really impressive now

99
00:02:53,420 --> 00:02:54,461
Cars keep passing by next to us

100
00:02:54,461 --> 00:02:55,721
And we're eating right now

101
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:57,160
It's an amazing experience

102
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,118
(The fate of alley restaurants)

103
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,720
Honestly, before coming here,

104
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:00,960
mackerel kebab...

105
00:03:00,961 --> 00:03:02,861
I'd never even heard of it

106
00:03:03,001 --> 00:03:04,220
So I was a bit like..

107
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:05,540
Mackerel kebab?

108
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,340
If you're overseas

109
00:03:08,780 --> 00:03:10,220
and suddenly miss Korea 

110
00:03:10,220 --> 00:03:11,620
and Korean food,

111
00:03:11,620 --> 00:03:13,080
this right here will hit the spot

112
00:03:13,081 --> 00:03:14,130
Is it that good?

113
00:03:15,540 --> 00:03:17,260
Wow, this is really delicious

114
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:18,760
Compared to other regions in Turkey,

115
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:19,681
especially in Istanbul,

116
00:03:19,681 --> 00:03:21,800
mackerel kebab is famous

117
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,240
Because you know how the Bosphorus runs through Istanbul?

118
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,040
It’s basically the sea,

119
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,260
 so they catch tons of mackerel here

120
00:03:27,420 --> 00:03:29,580
That’s why you’ll find so many fresh mackerel dishes,

121
00:03:29,660 --> 00:03:31,320
and one of them is this mackerel kebab

122
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,160
Just had a bite,

123
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,407
the mackerel’s so fresh

124
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,041
 and seriously delicious

125
00:03:35,041 --> 00:03:35,800
Oh, are you giving it to me?

126
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,060
Thank you so much

127
00:03:38,860 --> 00:03:40,020
There's no one here

128
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,940
I thought it was just some random spot,

129
00:03:42,940 --> 00:03:44,180
-but it was actually amazing
-What a twist

130
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:45,760
I think I'll come here again

131
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,420
I'm already leaving tomorrow morning

132
00:03:47,420 --> 00:03:48,720
You must eat this in the morning

133
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:49,541
It was so delicious

134
00:03:49,541 --> 00:03:50,742
It was an unforgettable taste

135
00:03:51,140 --> 00:03:53,200
It’s got a bit of a unique twist,

136
00:03:53,201 --> 00:03:54,120
but not too much,

137
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:55,200
-it still feels familiar,
-Right

138
00:03:55,201 --> 00:03:56,420
and I think that’s what made it so good

139
00:03:56,420 --> 00:03:57,420
That combination

140
00:03:57,420 --> 00:03:59,600
 looks very unfamiliar

141
00:03:59,740 --> 00:04:01,080
But the taste is actually

142
00:04:01,081 --> 00:04:02,461
-a taste we know
-we know the taste

143
00:04:02,461 --> 00:04:03,060
Yes, yes

144
00:04:03,340 --> 00:04:04,721
We ordered two kebabs,

145
00:04:04,721 --> 00:04:06,541
and the total came out to 440 TRY (About 14,964 KRW)

146
00:04:06,541 --> 00:04:07,920
-Yes
-The cost-effectiveness is so good

147
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,760
-It's the best
-And even with a whole fish in each,

148
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,500
it was still that affordable

149
00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:13,420
So next time, let's find a more delicious place

150
00:04:13,420 --> 00:04:15,960
Let's continue our Istanbul trip

151
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:16,660
Bye Bye
