If you are on a budget, eat outside of the square. The prices are 1/2 the price or more when you walk up a few blocks towards the grand bazaar or towards Galata Bridge.

Try to be here when the evening call to prayers happens. You will here the call from Blue mosque and then Haggia Sophia.

When you buy the wonderfully smelling roasted chestnuts, make sure the vendor does not put a couple of rotten pieces. It will spoil your taste buds.
