Everything we ate in Istanbul 2024 / cheap & local street food

My partner and I took a day off from work and decided to go to Istanbul for an extended weekend. We've both been to Istanbul before and visited the cultural and historical sites. This time, we embarked on a gastronomic journey. We walked for 12 hours per day, experienced the local culture and ate only street food where we were the only foreigners. Come along and enjoy!
