We actually have that in Bulgaria, but I don't like pickled condiments so much so I've not tried it. D= But then again, there are many different types so I should look into it. =D

I don't know what that is. When I first saw the title, I thought it was just some made-up word. ^^ Hehe.

I don't know what it is but via the magic of Google I shall find out!

From Wikipedia:
Quote:
a Middle Eastern and Southeastern European sandwich-like wrap of shaved lamb, goat, chicken, turkey, beef, or a halal mixture of meats. The meat is placed on a spit, and may be grilled for as long as a day. Chunks of fat within the meat ensure that the shawarma stays juicy. Shawarma is a fast-food staple across the Middle East and North Africa.

Shawarma is eaten with pita bread, tabouli, fattoush, taboon bread, tomato and cucumber. Toppings include tahini, hummus, pickled turnips and amba.

Shawarma is a version of döner kebab and is thus similar to gyros.
Mmm this sounds good.

After that description of it...I am honestly going to say Im hungry for one. It sounds AMAZING! And everyone should know, if a chef(or even apprentice chef) says it sounds amazing, it generally is!

I too have never heard of it until Readera, thank you for the wiki post; goat does not sound appetizing but other than that I could like this sandwich.

I still have no idea what these bolded toppings are, oh and no cucumber for me, ick.

Awesome! 01-26-2010 01:16 AM
I've never heard of it. But it sounds good. I want to try it now. :'D

Twisted Insanity 01-26-2010 01:56 AM
Oh, so that's what it is. That actually sounds pretty tasty. :drool:

Wynna 01-26-2010 04:21 AM
I've never had it but so many people on residence floor says that it is to die for.

Sun 01-26-2010 12:33 PM
I've not heard of them! Right now though i'm craving some tuna.

Krusadin 01-26-2010 02:23 PM
It looks a lot like kebab from the picures I've seen. Mmmm...thank you very much now I am hungry. >_<

ember2phoenix 01-26-2010 03:15 PM
I had to see what this thread was about. I've never heard of Shawarma.

Unfortunately, I'm vegetarian so it's not for me, but I love pita bread, tabouli, tahini and hummus. Add the tomato and cucumber to that sandwich and it sounds perfectly yummy to me.

I wonder what pickled turnips are like and what is "amba"?

Sakubo 02-04-2010 10:13 AM
Someone actually knows Shawarma ;DDD! Are you from a arabic country? And I love shawarma. <333

Ikuto Akihiko Hasegawa 02-04-2010 11:59 AM
I've never tried it and based on the description it doesn't seem to my liking. :O

sagecat 02-05-2010 05:39 AM
It sounds absolutely delicious!

Guivre 02-06-2010 08:11 PM
Now, amba I had to google. D=

It's another one of those relishy things I dislike, so no wonder I didn't know. D= I like my vegetables not sweet or brined, thank you very much.
