Balık ekmek

Balık ekmek is a common street food item in Turkish cuisine. It is a sandwich of a filet of fried or grilled fish (typically mackerel, or other similar oily fish), served along with various vegetables, inside a bun of Turkish bread. It is typically served on the Eminönü square straight from the boat on which it is prepared. The name is a combination of the Turkish words balık 'fish' and ekmek 'bread'.
