The humble spud takes center stage in Istanbul ahead of International Day of the Potato

Whether plain, oozing with extra cheese or dripping with ketchup, Istanbul’s beloved street snack — the supersized “kumpir” — is no ordinary baked potato. Locals and visitors alike flock to the city’s waterfront neighborhood of Ortakoy where vendors expertly split and stuff hulking jacket potatoes with spoonfuls of pickled red cabbage to scoops of creamy Russian salad and everything in between.
