Are you looking for the best street food restaurants in Istanbul or Antalya?

Are you traveling in a foreign country and want to eat the street food that the locals eat?

It goes without saying that the basic requirements of everyone are cleanliness, tasty cuisine, friendly service and reasonable prices. But where and how do I find these street food restaurants that meet your requirements?

That is the crucial question. Anyone who goes on their own search knows how difficult it can sometimes be to find the right fast food restaurant.

The most common method is to use your smartphone to search the search engines for the closest and most recommended restaurant with the desired cuisine. Here they are overwhelmed with dozens of restaurants. Then you look at the reviews. Many people ask themselves the legitimate question of how old and objective the ratings and comments are. The fact is that many feel torn by the high number of comments and ratings.

Another method would be to follow your nose with a bit of gut feeling. This is more for independent travelers with a spirit of discovery and a lot of time. A city is best explored on foot. This is the best way to discover the alleys, streets and squares where only locals hang out. And if you are specifically looking for a good restaurant with a cuisine that is not adapted to tourists, you will certainly find it here. And here are some tips on how to greatly increase the chance of finding a really good restaurant:

• An important feature of a good restaurant is that there are many locals or regulars there. You can usually see that at first glance. It's the same as at home. There are regulars only in the good restaurants. Locals in particular will only eat once in a bad restaurant and then usually never again.
• Restaurants that have to address passers-by directly on the street (sometimes very vehemently, with specially hired advertisers) are usually a very bad choice. There's a reason guests don't come by themselves.
• Most of the time, good restaurants with reasonable prices are not found directly on the streets and squares where mostly tourists are. In my experience, the restaurants with better quality and also better prices are usually two or three streets away from the hustle and bustle. Unless you want to mingle with the beautiful and the rich of the local scene and are willing to pay multiple times over for the same dish.
