Kababs are merely what the weak Turks call Souvlaki. Which is a Greek thing and the best food ever.
Doner Kebabs!

To be more specific, döner kebab is usually lamb, though it can actually be any kind of meat or fish (pork is pretty rare, given it's origins in Islamic countries). I'm not entirely sure about this, but the fattiness is supposedly to keep the meat from drying out.zumbledum said:
good thing about those: they are the best fast food ever.
bad thing: as soon as i leave berlin they get either shitty or really expensive.

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...

It's not New York food, it's Chicago food.Souplex said:
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
In Sweden we usually just call it kebab, though I've seen a few places using the correct name...And if you're lucky, it is the food of the gods! Cheap, delicious and absolutely perfect. I know a place in a small town caleld Nässjö that makes the damn best Doner kebab I've ever had.
Shaving? 0: British Turks aren't half as manly as Dutch Turks, over here they cut it with a sword!
Dude, rock fucking on! I'm stuck in the States and we don't have any good fucking kebab places (or decent booze) anywhere. Least not in Jersey.
But man I had these Turkish neighbors that homemade that shit and damn it was heaven while I was sober! I went there many a time while drunk and I will testify about its alcoholic death impeding qualities.
Man I miss having non-American neighbors. They made the best food and just handed that shit our for free! I want some damn kebab now. And lots of cheap vodka. Why would you do this to me Daystar and Co. Dx
WHHHHYYYYYY?????

So wait, that's what a Doner Kebab is? We actually have those in the US, but they're called Gyros (pronounced euro like the currency, not gyro as in gyroscope). It's something you get from Greek restaurants, although I understand Greek and Turkish food is very similar.
I always thought it was some sort of shishkebab, those wonderful skewers of grilled meat and vegetable chunks, which come from the same part of the world and are often served in a similar way, with pita bread and that tasty white sauce and everything.

Actually, the Döner Kebap was invented in Berlin/Germany. By a turkish man so you decide wether it's a half german or genuine turkish dish. The first döner kebaps in berlin where made with ingredients from germany so presumably they tasted like bureaucracy and failure.
Where'd you get that idea? I've never heard of a gyro made of anything but lamb.ItsNotRudy said:
Edit: Looks like it depends on the country in question. In the US, they're almost always made out of lamb or a blend of lamb and beef. In the rest of the world, if it's called a gyro and not a kebab or shawarma[footnote]interestingly enough, all three names can apparently refer to the same thing depending on what part of the world you're in[/footnote], it's more likely to be made out of pork, chicken, or veal.
