The Quintessential Istanbulu Snack

My Turkish friend Erem introduced me to these highly addictive "wet burgers" the minute I got to my hotel near Taksim Square. After a 17-hour flight, the compact burger—a garlicky patty inside a soft bun that's been doused in tomato sauce—thoroughly hit the spot. There are many stands that sell wet burgers in the Taksim area, but Kizilkayalar is the best, at least according to Erem, me, and Anthony Bourdain.
