I usually get a medium chicken and a medium shish, or chicken tikka tandoori with a chapati, comes with rice, salad and curry sauce.

Got a donner calzone the other night, came with 2 sauces, no idea what one was as I was only interested in the chilli. Talking of chilli, you should give OPA OPA Greek food in Livi a bash, not terribly hot but they do a chilli yoghurt, loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 It upsets me when chippies use iceberg lettuce instead of cabbage for the salad. Like do they realise how much it ruins the experience? Arseholes. Also when they manage to cock up the sauces and you end up with this cream coloured mayo instead of the garlic sauce. See if you run a chippy and you're currently using lettuce instead of cabbage, I hope your next shites a hedgehog you grade 1 prick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restonbabe Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Javits at top of hyvot on drum street. Won the best kebab in the uk a few years ago. Unrivaled for his donner kebab or Shish kebab.

highlandjambo3 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Not in Edinburgh but the post reminded me of my time in Saudi Arabia, the vendor was a guy on a bike with a battered old handmade cart and, he’d turn up every evening and set up outside our camp and literally sell hundreds of these (chicken or lamb) at 50p a pop all with fresh salad, chilli sauce and fresh baked flatbreads, absolutely phenomenal, never tasted anything like it since.

Think it was forced to close temporarily when the gas explosion happened in the flat above in 2019. Think they just opted not to re-open. Sat empty still to this day. 21 hours ago, Mister T said: Palmera at surgeon's hall Kebab Mahal across the road in the square for me is the best around. Best donner meat I've had and they do their own home made chilli sauce as well as the usual bottle sauce on it. Absolutely magic after a night out. Generous portion sizes too. Pakistani family run it so they do a lot of curry dishes too but haven't tried yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
