My brother-in-law is originally from Istanbul, and he and my sister and their kids go there to visit his family every 2 years. Though it's not really palatable to my taste buds, you might wanna ask your dad to pick up some turkish delights. Also worth getting are the colourful kilim pillowcases and rugs that are made my hand.
