I really need to reflect
The people next to me
ate three each, while I ate all...,
I did my best
The portion is too large
(Hong Kong Lunch)
(Istanbul, Turkey) Hello, this is Istanbul Lunch
Wow, it's hot, everyone
If it's this hot at the beginning of July,
I don't know how it will be in August
Yes, here is
a restaurant that locals visit often,
so we found a restaurant similar to
Lung Song Pan that we know well in Hong Kong
It seems very similar,
so we're going to check out
what Lung Song Pan is like in Turkey
I keep talking about it
It's so pretty, it's beautiful
There isn't a single cloud
It's hot, hot
Ah, these Turkish carpets are so pretty
(Scent of the local)
But it's 2:30 PM right now
Lunch time has long passed,
but doesn't it seem like there are still a lot of people?
What's going on?
Why are there so many people only at this place?
What's going on?
(various foods)
Just one...
Let's just do one first
(Buffet style)
(Pick up)
They say to try the yogurt soup?
That's amazing
Wow, there's really a lot
It's really a lot
We don't know what it is
Let's try it
It's the cheapest among what we've had
Oh, the price is reasonable
(Greeting)
Starting from dessert to yogurt soup,
chicken, meat,
pasta, noodles, salad
This must be really fresh
I'm so curious
What is this?
It's white inside
That's fascinating
Is it not good?
It really tastes like yogurt inside
It's slightly sour and salty
Am I just drinking oil?
No, it feels like it's making my insides feel really good
Feels like it's going down
So good
(surprised)
Isn't it fascinating? The taste?
Wait, wait
First of all, I've never eaten yogurt
warm before in my life
It has a familiar taste
It does, it does, it does
It kind of tastes like miso soup
It's better than I thought
The salad I wanted to eat the most
is exactly as I imagined
Tomato..
There's a little olive oil on top
(familiar taste)
Looking at the people next to me now,
but now,
it seems like they eat about... three each by default
I'll try this pasta-looking thing
There's a slight spice taste
Ah, that's
curry
-Is this curry? -Yes
The salad's dressing isn't too strong, so it's nice
It seems good because it tastes just like the ingredients
(chicken)
The chicken isn't that off-putting
-It seems to be tomato-based -Yes
But the chicken..
isn't hot,
it's slightly... cooled down
The chicken is tasty
Inside..
There's also orange
There's orange, tomato, and all sorts of fascinating things
(loaded with fruits)
I think I chose this pasta well
You chose well
It's the taste we already know..
so it's delicious because it's a familiar taste
This yogurt soup
gets a bit more delicious as you eat it
Isn't it okay?
This is the most..
Exotic taste
What does this chicken actually taste like?
Why is there an orange inside?
So many..
Oh? It's really tender
It's okay
The chicken cuts like this in one go?
Isn't it unique?
It's delicious
Honestly, it kinda tastes like the chicken
we make at home
Similar, similar
I think we chose the food well
We just picked the familiar ones,
nothing weird or off-putting, just the kind of flavors
we already know
This yogurt soup was a bit like that too
But as I ate, it was delicious
What was best was the price
Oh wow..
It's the cheapest among what we've eaten so far
It's even similar to the price of bread in the morning
Now I know why there are
so many people here
It’s only natural
I’ve been to a lot of restaurants,
and it’s rare
to find this kind of quality at this price
Honestly, I’ve never seen anything like it before
This place pulls it off
People really need to reflect on this
The people next to us
are eating three each
They finished everything
We tried our best
- It's not possible - The portion is too large
The portion is too large
We ordered four main dishes
for two of us
Couldn't finish everything and it was difficult
Now, it's dessert
A dessert often found in Turkey
This is a dessert called Kadaif
If you look at the top,
the dough is made thin like noodles,
sprinkled with syrup and baked in the oven
That's the feature of this dessert
Usually in Turkey
or in the Middle Eastern regions,
it's said to be a popular dessert
It doesn't cut
-Oh right, it's really thin like this -Amazing
(Focusing)
(Nods)
Because the dough is thin,
it's crunchy when you chew
I really like that kind of texture
What is this?
Is it kind of like cream?
Because it's too sweet
Is it sprinkled lightly with cream to balance it out?
Honestly, just by looking at it
I didn't think so
I thought like this
But it's tastier than expected
It's good
The texture is really..
Isn't it unique?
It's kind of like dried noodles
Oh, fried dried noodles
It sweet to eat
But they really like milk and cream here
Oh, oh
It's everywhere, everywhere
I really should try Kadayif once
There are pistachios on top, aren't there?
We've finished our meal now
But we couldn't eat it all because there was too much
Yet we ordered five dishes
Including one dessert, we ordered five in total
(about 13,525 Korean won) it only came out to 395 lira
The price is really good
It's past 3 PM now, but there are so many people here
I think it's because of the value for money
So, next time we'll visit an even more delicious place
and continue our Istanbul trip
Bye-bye
