| - I have been frequenting Pita Grill from time to time over the last year, in my neighborhood of Riverbend.
Every time I went, I predictably got a falafel. I am not a vegetarian, but there is something about looking at a big cylinder of meat baking vertically, and getting carved off a slab that personally gives me the whillies, so I have declined for years.
Until this week.
My mom is visiting from out of town, so there has been a lot of people coming around for visits, food and a few drinks. On one particular sunny evening after work, it was pretty hot out, so nobody felt like cooking, and nobody who was over wanted the same thing, so I ended up making a few quick stops to accommodate random food requests, and a Chicken Wrap was on the request list by one of my friends at Pita Grill.
My first positive comment has to be the smell..... The chicken was carved, and then thrown on the grill, and then transferred onto the wrap a few short feet away from me. Wow... the waft was delicious. A big delicious squirt of garlic sauce was applied, and it was bundled up and handed to me.
Next notable comment, was that I was asked to pick up a "medium wrap". This wrap should have been called a jumbo wrap. I can only imagine what the large and jumbo wrap would look like! It was almost the size of a newborn. I kind of held it like a newborn too (only because I was juggling my purse, and other random take out items from the area).
I quickly lost interest in my dinner, and I was swarming around that chicken wrap like a buzzard. I managed to fandangle myself a bite and I instantly was struck with plate envy. The meat was tender, juicy, flavorful and the garlic sauce was delightfully offensive for a good hour or two.
I am now a lover of donairs/schwarmas. Good bye, Pita Grill Falafels. Helloooooo Pita Grill, Chicken Schwarmas.
