Istanbul is divided into three sections by the Golden Horn (Halic), the Bosphorus (Bogazizi) and the Sea of Marmara (Marmara Denizi). Given it is a city of between 12 and 17 million inhabitants (depends on who you ask) many commute using the ferries.
As in most places, fast food sellers locate small stands near the commuter entrances/exits serving the ferries. This stand is at the Resadiye Caddesi/Kennedy Kaddesi. Instead of burgers and fries common in North America, and generally unavailable in Turkey, you get a bun with a fried mackerel and shredded lettuce with a "special sauce". This is a "balik salata", just the thing for a quick bite for the ferry ride home. Also addictive, much like burgers!
