  1. Hi,Matt!I'm Masumi Horie.
    From this video,I'm surprised that people eat raw shellfish as street food in Turkey because we usually eat processed street food.Moreover, I'm also surprised at cooking and selling food on the boat in Turkey.
    I'll answer the question No.1. I eat street food at the festival. I especialy like octopus fritters called "Takoyaki"in Japanese.

    See you next class!

    I eat street food almost every time when I find that. Especially, I like "Kabab" the most,so I wish I were in Turkey like people who appear on the Video!

  6. Hi, Matt! I'm Toru Sugisaki.

    I think that street food is always sold on the side of road , but it is not right idea. According to the VIDEO, they sell foods on the boat drifting near the road. I'm surprised it.

    I'd like to answer the question4. I haven't ever eaten street foods. I want to try one, especially fruits and vegetables. I think the shops deal with local foods, so I would like to eat fresh foods.

    See you next class!

    A street food that I'm most interested in this video is the street food which is sold on a boat. The boat is waving, so I think it is difficult to cook.

    I ate the street foods in the festivals. My faborite street food is candy cotton. It is very sweet. When I go to the festivsl, I often buy it.

    See you next class!
