Re: Doner Kebab man dies..

3rd time lucky i guess!


Back on topic though, never been a fan of doners myself, always prefered kofta or chicken, something about the doner meat that just never seemed right to me.

Re: Doner Kebab man dies..

BBC NEWS | Magazine | How unhealthy is a doner kebab?

You know what I never liked? That "salad" on the side equates to "onion". No amount of drink should allow kebab sellers to get away with it

Don't tell me after falling out of the pub/club at 5am you said to your mates "I quite fancy a Kofta" you would have been laughed out of our town

If i've been drinking i'm not usually in a state to think something so clever, it's only on passing an open kebab or chicken shop i'm like "OH MY GOD IVE HAD THE BEST IDEA EVER!!! KEBAB!!!"

Apparently every time I want one they're shut


Plus they don't sell 'parmo' which is a major downpoint, I know if I lived somewhere that sold them i'd never stop eating the stuff

Thankfully they dont have it here or i'd be huge.

Re: Doner Kebab man dies..

No. Although its a fine balance between stumbling around finding only fried chicken and kebab places are open, to daybreak and you can have a breakfast and tea at a cafe (although for the sake of others, go home and shower people)

Re: Doner Kebab man dies..

never forget waking up one morning with a raging hangover and picking rivers of lard off my arms from wrist to elbow where the kebab had run whilst I was eating it the night before

Was from somewhere in Richmond

Re: Doner Kebab man dies..

the best kebab shop probably anywhere, is a place called the kebab kid down the kings road in fulham

the meat is of such high quality they weigh it first

if you ever go to stamford bridge, you need to visit kebab kid

meat and chips with onion and chilli sauce is food fit for a king when sober let alone when you have had a half of shandy

In my youth my local kebab shop in northfleet used to make chilli sauce so hot it used to melt the plastic boxes they put the food in

ramsey, heston etc donna what there on about
