What the creator captured
Abroad and Hungry was deeply moved by the Büryan kebab, describing the pit-roasted lamb as one of the best dishes he has ever tasted in Istanbul. He also highlighted the historical significance of drinking Boza at a shop operating since the Ottoman Empire, even using the same glass used by Atatürk in 1937. The journey concluded with a massive feast near the Grand Bazaar that he described as a once-in-a-lifetime meal.
