Crystal, a fellow ex-pat Bluenoser, and I are on the hunt for the Calgary donair which most resembles the king of donairs ... the Halifax donair.
We initially went to Brothers, a site I have enjoyed in the past, but it's closed due to the Ctrain relocation. The owners want to open it elsewhere but have yet to find a new location.
Little Lebanon has always been a close second. The meat is a tich on the bland side but the sweet sauce is pretty darn good. We could have stood to have a little more drippy in the bottom of the bag, though.
It's passable and the atmosphere is pretty good for a quick in-and-out. The guys on the counter are super friendly. When one of them thought some random guy butted in line in front of us, we got free baklava.
And who doesn't lurv free baklava?
The quest, however, continues. I am quite excited, though, to have found a knowledgeable partner in crime for the great adventure.
She grew up on the perfect donair and has a rather refined and discriminating palate.
Medium donair: $6.50
Extra meat for the dog: $2
