Doner Kebabs

You haven't had a kebab till you've had one in Hartlepool - be sure to take a pal with you cos it takes 2 people to carry one - and about 5 hours to eat!

I've just had a thought. With my impending visit to Turkey less than four weeks away, am I to experience the pinnacle of kebabs in the home of the kebab?

Anyone whose had one in Turkey, please advise me.

Absolutely shite, I couldn't wait to get home to have a "real" kebab, I went straight to the Saajan for a Tandoori Lamb kebab as soon as I got home.

I had some really nice ones when I went last year, not from the restaurants though. Just from the blokes selling them out of a windows near the markets and shopping areas.
 
Venus supermarket on anson road,nr birchfields.they have a takeawy at the side.its run by turkish.the kebabs they do are amazin,its 5.50 for a standard kebab but worth it.the bread they use looks like a big hollowed out burger bun.they use proper fillets of meat,well worth a try if your in the area.

They are good in Turkey but not the same as they are here, the word has been hijacked here, in Turkey it's more a cooking style (cooked over flames) so you could see things described as a Kebab but are nothing like what you see here. The doner ones you can get everywhere are a lot smaller, we would describe them more as a wrap, I have never seen eh type of pitta bread we have here in Turkey, they do them in Lamb or Chicken, the meat is not ground up like it is here, the kebab we get here is based on the Adana Kebab, which figures as most kebab shops are Kurdish owned rather than Turkish
 
Anyone who eats a kebab if they are sober needs locking up. Disgusting meat hanging in a fly stained window whilst being hacked at by a fat sweaty immigrant is not my idea of gourmet dining.

Where do you go then after a night on the piss? The savoy grill?
