Rate This City: Day 97 - Istanbul Turkey

[BrehWyatt]

Looking at pics I saw a lot of American city influence (Cali, Pittsburgh, etc.) Transcontinental too? Didn't know that.

I'd give it an 8 solely on how unique/eclectic it looks in the pics. Legit looks like a melting pot of sorts.

I love Istanbul. My aunt is married to a Turkish guy and lives there. Owns a restaurant there. My trip to Turkey was one of the best trips I ever went on. Travelled the whole country.

I went to the Blue Mosque and took off my Jordan cement 3s thinking no one would steal them at a mosque. Them shyts was gone when I came back. Luckily the mosque gave me slippers to wear . A breh got his Lebron's jacked too.

Damn..you supposed to wear slippers or sandals to the mosque


How was the cuisine? Is it seafood based? Of course no pork...Chicken or Beef heavy?

The cuisine was delicious. Lots of lamb, beef and chicken. Had a few fish dishes too. I forgot the area in Istanbul but it's near the water and boats just got fish ready to cook for you. It's a tourist trap but worth the experience.

Man I miss this series so much. This city, Amsterdam and Tokyo are on my bucket list of places to visit in the near future.
