Doner Kebabs!

[Souplex]

1. I'm pretty sure that's a gyro you pictured, not a kebab.
2. It's New York food. As America is New York's country, and Britain is on America's planet.

It's not New York food, it's Chicago food.

New York serves it out of sketchy little metal carts. Chicago serves it in actual structures in a slot on the menu between the italian beef (meat and more meat dunked in meat juice. You can ask for cheese, but they will judge you hard) and the pizza puff (deep fried pizza, fries, and a drink for $4? yes please). Don't try to bogart Chicago's dominance of all things involving meat on bread. All true gyro dispensaries also have this woman's seal of approval.

Chicago pizza is also far superior, but that's another topic

New York serves it out of buildings as well. We serve everything out of buildings and carts.
We serve everything out of everywhere.
And our pizza is better.
And Chicago smells funny.

I've just had a thought...


A deep fried doner kebab pizza...


That would cure all the alcohol poisoning.

I think I got heart disease and high cholesterol just from thinking about that.

Tasty, tasty heart disease.

The best kind.

A drunken night is not the same till you finish on a donor kebab, though there is the lingering thought while trying to eat it of 'I must finish this before the bread dissolves in my hands.'

 

[ClockworkPenguin]

Pah, if you where serious you'd have deep fried it. God Bless Glasgow, greatest city on earth!

I'm from Colorado, and when I saw the thread title I thought it was missing an 'n'
(Donnor trail kabobs....mmmmmmm.......)

I read the title as Donner Kebab and was expecting a MUCH different story.

Same here. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donner_Party] The OP is about Greek food, but I'm not sure if that outweighs it being Greek food in Britain. I think I'd rather play it safe and take the Donner Party Kebab.

Doner kebab is amazing after a night out
Theres a place near where I live that does lamb doner, chips and a drink for 4 quid and oh my god its amazing

Really? My kebab shop's doners cost £4 on their own! That's what I get for living in the south-east I suppose... But I don't mind that much because own of the kebab shop guys is quite fit.

 

[Daveman]

Everywhere I've gone a Doner is about £1 cheaper than a Shish, so I just get something that is definitely only one kind of animal.

I know, "lah-di-dah" and all that, but it's always worth it to upgrade. Drunk Daveman agrees.

Ah, you Englishmen and your kebabs...What, are you on a diet? Trying to get in shape for swimsuit season? I mean, you've not even deep-fried anything. Come to Glasgow and treat yourself to a pizza crunch...



If you order two at once in most chip shops you get a free place on the transplant list at the Royal Infirmary.

is that...... a deep fried pizza?

In a word; [url = "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep-fried_pizza"]yes[/url]. I don't know how familiar you are with Scottish food, but basically a drunk scotsman is capable of truly legendary feats of consumption. See also the [url = "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep-fried_Mars_bar"]Deep-Fried Mars Bar[/url], the original "heart attack on a plate", and [url = "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haggis"]Haggis[/url], the result of a sheep successfully eating itself, which has had poetry [http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Address_to_a_Haggis] written about it.

I will, however, say that I've never had Black Pudding quite as nice as Scottish Black Pudding, though in researching this post I've also found that they [url = "http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4b/Wiki_black_battered.jpg"]deep-fry[/url] that and all...

Scotland's a pretty weird place.

Doner Kebabs are an excellent marker on the Barometer Of Sobriety - basically, when a kebab starts to sound like a good idea that's your indicator that you've had too much and it's time to go home to bed. Without swinging past the take-away.

This thread has given me motivation to go to Shibuya tomorrow.

Though i miss being drunk as hell and eating doner kababs on the streets of roppongi.
Never tried them overseas yet...

 

[Daystar Clarion]

You try to live in a city where there's a kebab kiosk on every friggin' corner, most of them quite shit. You can't buy a hotdog here, only kebabs.

It's pretty much fast food hell.

On every corner? I top that with several in nearly every street. Back then on my way from school to the bus station home (abou 1km) I passed 7 Kebab kiosks, some of them are still there. Try to find the few good ones there D:

And if there is no Kebab kiosk we have a Greek place that sells Gyros...

I can guarantee that nobody in that area has ever died of alcohol poisoning.

 

[CaptQuakers]

The might Kebab has saved many a drunken Brit from the our 2nd favorite hobby of fighting when drunk from fear of dropping said kebab.

On a side not a chicken burger with cheese is also pretty good but it's never the same
