What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was mesmerized by the incredible craftsmanship at a historic Izmir bakery, particularly the skill required to roll boyoz dough until it is transparent and paper-thin. He highly recommended the combination of smoky, sesame-crusted gevrek with salty tulum cheese as a comforting local breakfast staple. His favorite moment was tasting the kumru sandwich fresh from the wood-fired oven, praising its perfect balance of juicy tomatoes and melted cheese.
