Tantuni is one of the most traditional street foods in Turkey.

The history of Tantuni goes back to the 18th century when mountain (nomad) people used to cook Tantuni in the city of Mersin.

A beautiful city in the south part of Turkey, and since 1980, it has become very famous as a student food.

There are more than 500 Tantuni rstaurants, and Tatuni now it’s all around the world. Canada was missing, so now we are in Canada too as Mr. Tantuni.

The Tantuni was initially created as a student dish because it’s fast and and tasty for a reasonable price.

It’s also very nutritious, because it consists of meat with a lot of protein stuffed into bread. Some believe that the dish’s name refers to the cooking sound.

When spices and meat are brought from the rim of the pan to its center, that specific sound inspires the chosen name… Tantuni.
