Turkish Pizza

It's called pide and it looks delicious! Instagram member stark_eats describes how he discovered it at a restaurant in Istanbul:

A bearded gent from northern Turkey, crammed in with his family at the table next to ours, upon noticing our non-Turkish tongues, asked us with guarded suspicion how we found out about this family-run spot. Once we gave him a satisfactory answer, he told us we had chosen wisely, for this was his favorite pidecisi in Istanbul. When we were about to dig in, he told us to first slide the butter around the crust and then eat. Glad we did

I discovered pide in London at a place called Tas Pide. I had eaten at another Tas location in Bloomsbury and loved it, and after visiting Shakespeare's Globe on the south bank of the Thames, noticed a related restaurant called Tas Pide. The main difference between the two is that the one near Shakespeare's Globe serves pide. They're glorious. It was by far my favorite meal of my two-week excursion. Since returning stateside, I've found pide at one place, but it wasn't anything like the stuff I had in London ... and I imagine the stuff I had in London probably pales in comparison to what you can get in Istanbul.
