| - I've been going here for decades, and it's still amazing! The owner is an absolute gem. I remember when I was little, he told my dad in the days he was starting out, and not many shawarma places were around, that a woman came in during the winter, and was obviously a little bit sick. While she sat down, he made a tea, and brought it to her free of charge. She was so thankful, and the next week, she bought her entire extended family.
His hard work and quality has paid off. It's still my favourite Chicken Shawarma Sandwich in the city, and all others pale by comparison. It's the crunchy cabbage salad (I hold the lettuce) that makes it for me. It's also filling! One sandwich and I'm full. Most other places, I feel like the Chicken is a second class citizen and I need at least two.
I'd also recommend the Eggplant Sandwich, which is an amazing contrast of creamy eggplant and crunchy cabbage that is so good! I often have trouble deciding between the two sandwiches, and more often than not buy one of each for my next two meals.
If you want to be satisfied for the entire day, their shawarma plate will fill you up really good.
I often order their Baklava for parties, which is so good!
Grab a sandwich. You won't regret it!!!
PS - I'm allergic to Fava Beans so I can't comment on their falafel sandwiches, but the owner once made one with only chickpeas minus the fava beans and it was GREAT! I'd still stick to the Chicken or Eggplant or both sandwiches!
