Where to go and what to try

Each city has its own flavour and spice. Discover what these cities have to offer by going out to eat in one of its popular restaurants and bars, strolling through street markets or exploring traditional cuisines with a local.
If you want to find authentic restaurants, cozy bars and cafes hidden from tourists in Amsterdam, Prague, Paris, Barcelona or Istanbul check our recommendations and advice below.

Amsterdam

Amsterdam provides a huge range of ethnic eating in the city. Jordaan has a wide range of restaurants, centred around Tweede Tuindwarsstraat. These include Mantoe, the city's only Afghan restaurant. Most of the Asian restaurants are to be found around Nieuwmarkt and the little tokos shops fill the air with smells of Eastern spices. Indonesian restaurants are a particular highlight. Local specialities include cheese, herring, bitterballen meatballs and Ossenworst, a kind of spiced beef sausage.

Different locations around Paris

Istanbul

To make you food search in Istanbul a pleasant experience, keep the following rules in your mind if you visit the street markets:
*Check the quality of the product literally by your hands before buying it.
*If you have found something good, do not let it go out of your hands before you have decided. Otherwise it's gone forever!
*Get over it and bargain! Turkish sellers consider it impolite if you agree with the first price they give. The more you buy, the higher is your chance to get some nice reduction.

Gaziantep Burç Kebab
Craving a real kebab? Here it is grilled on a traditional grill with a copper hood. Tastes great and costs cheap. Our special recommendation: ali nazık (pickled beef with eggplant purée).
Parçacılar Sok. Kapalı Çarşı 12, Istanbul, Istanbul

Balıkçı Sabahattin
Opened in 1927, the restaurant is still a family-run business specialized in a seafood. Be brave and discover new tastes. Try kalkan - a type of turbo - that is simply scrumptious.
Cankurtaran Mh., Seyit Hasan Kuyu Sok. No: 1, 34122 Cankurtaran

Kadikoy Market
It is a huge gathering of hundreds of merchants selling fruits, vegetables, spices, fish, dairy products, etc. It takes place at Hasanpasa and the best way to get there is to take a taxi for a short ride to the marketplace.
Dumlupınar Mahallesi, Şerefler Sk. No: 63, 34720 Kadıköy

Spices bazaar
Your visit to Istanbul is not complete without stopping by this atmospheric market built in 1660. It wins the prize for being the most colorful, fragrant, and often the most fun – as visitors can taste the goods on offer.
