The image showcases the wooden street stand, where the vendor, dressed in a full apron and traditional hajib, skillfully prepares and offers filled and folded Turkish flatbreads, known as pide. The seller's case is filled with freshly baked pide, their golden crust glistening under the sunlight. The historical context of this photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a moment in the rich culinary history of Istanbul. Pide, a type of Turkish pita bread, has been a staple food in the region for centuries. This image encapsulates the vibrant street life and the enduring tradition of food culture in Istanbul.
