Dishes mentioned
Chicken Shawarma
This chicken shawarma is really good. Once you get into the meat it's not as packed out as a UK kebab. The wrap is thin and crispy but also soft. Meat is perfectly chewy. Solid 8 out of 10.
Lamb Shawarma
The lamb shawarma wasn't as good as I'd hoped. I was expecting a 9 but it's more like a 7.9 or 8. Still really good, but the chicken is better.
Cab
These deep fried mince balls are all right. A lovely way to start the meal.
