From the square of the bazaar and the New Mosque, pass under the busy underpass leading to the Galata Bridge. Once we left on the side of the Golden Horn, to our left we see a number of posts with tables where you can order sandwiches. The site always has many people, so the first thing is to get a table. Once we place, employees pick the table and one of us has to go for the sandwiches into, no table service. The sandwiches are made on a barge moored in front of each small restaurant and one or two men serving customers, bring snacks from the barge and charge.
