      The hammams are wonderful. We do have them around where I live in France and the Pacha one near me is the largest in France and only for women, always. It's a day of Paradise. They are superb in Turkey and I loved my two hours in a mixed one there. Even the little ones can be great, they don't mess around, you get looked after and all fixed up, you emerge good for weeks, just feeling refreshed. :)

    Food looks absolutely amazing, and this woman isn't annoying like most other Munchies presenters.
    I'm from Istanbul so I can see a lot of similarities, like the tea houses and stuff, but the kebabs look totally different. The dolmas and the koftah's look similar but we don't use fillets for kebabs, which is just a goddamn shame. Marinating them in onion juice sounds fucking fab.

    • @CuteCatFaith

    • @DeadGlassEyes
      @DeadGlassEyes 10 років тому +7

      CuteCatFaith Yeah we usually use pomegranate extract on our salads which is obviously just a really good thing. Any of my friends who come to visit always leave with a few extra pounds guaranteed, Turkish food is incredibly diverse and just very tasty. Glad you had a good time! Istanbul?

    • @CuteCatFaith
      @CuteCatFaith 10 років тому +1

      DaemoniumCC No, but I have a pal in Istanbul, from the USA, who decided a decade ago to learn the language and go live and work there. (He's in Uska Daar these days.) I went alone to Ege and at first thougt, oh, no, what have I done? But a couple of days I was getting more and more attached to stuff there. I understand the East is different, it's an enormous country, and generally much misunderstood. :)

    • @DeadGlassEyes
      @DeadGlassEyes 10 років тому +8

      CuteCatFaith It's generally very misunderstood, which is a shame. We're seen as this dumb muslim country thanks to our president, and even though there are people like that here (like everywhere else) it's pretty far from the truth. As I'm sure you are when you visited.

    Dear CNN, I beg that you release all seasons of Parts Unknown for free in full on UA-cam. It will those few of us blessed with this man's talent in opening up our eyes to a wider world of culture, tradition, and in turn shrinking it in turn by showing and sharing the common experiences across the globe, and our common and united interest and love we have in sharing our food and drink. This would be an apt tribute to Tony, and a gift upon the wider community and citizens of this planet who have not yet been blessed by the education and perspective this man has given us lucky few who have watched this amazing series. RIP Tony, may you seek the light you were searching for, while we keep in memory the flame of your presence.

    As an Iranian, I've never heard anyone eating rice with a raw egg mixed on it !

    Iranian Kababs are one of the best, but Iranian cuisine isn't all about kabab and there are other great recipes to die for !

    I really liked eating Middle Eastern foods in the Mid-East! I am fairly adventurous (went all alone) but at first, I thought, I don't know ... but by Day Two, I found myself so attached to them, to so many things, and what music! It's a bit hard to describe unless you know someone who has been at least somewhere there and avoided hotel food (I can't stand that!). The climates, fresh products and methods really make sense to your senses. Uprated.

    When I was in the ohare airport in Chicago, just about to literally step onto the plane to go to europe, a Homeland Security officer named Juarez began to harass me. He literally ripped my passport from my own hands after I had already shown it to him already. He began to question me even demanding my drivers license. He almost had me miss my plane due to his questions. Even repeating the same questions I had already answered. I told him I don’t like what ICE is doing detaining children in cages. One of the questions he ask me was, “do you have any plans for visiting Iran or Russia?” I didn’t. I told him no. But why are we so oppressive against Iran. Just because they don’t agree with the American capitalist system and imperial/colonial tactics all around the world. These guys can’t say I can’t visit Iran or Russia. And I shouldn’t be intimidated like that or face any unfair consequences. It’s about time we made some healthy changes. We also need to be democratic and allow ALL nations to have an equal and fair membership in our world.

    Oh my, starting at Ep 1 I quickly found I preferred this to Bourdain! Bourdain’s prog was interesting, but too much time “explaining” Iran. Munchies cuts straight to the food, and what places and dishes Gelareh shows us. What a wonderful surprise in Ep 2 - the Bagh-e Saba “teahouse”, right round the corner from where I used to live in Kuche Kia (doubtless has a different name now as Kia was one of the Shah’s generals!). But I think it started up after I was there, so I never had a chance to go. Anyway, Iran has some of the best food, the most delicious dishes, in the world, no two ways about it. I’d love to see more by Gelareh as she can only have scratched the surface with these progs. You learn what food IS in Iran, just how good it can be. No more caviar though please!
