I'll take you're muslim, but you can get some made of lamb and beef. Great stuff.

>>14933177
is greasy fast food and it tastes like greasy fast food

>>14933177
It's just a gyros. Nothing special.

>>14933182
That's a fucking stupid assumption

>>14933177
Very good

>>14933216
I think your assumption is stupid.

Love kebabs, there's a great kebab place just 25 minutes away from my house I go to when the family is over

>>14933189
It's a little bit different, the gyros I get are usually
>lamb
>onion
>tomato
>tzatziki
Wrapped in a round pita, whereas döner are like
>lamb
>"salad" (iceberg lettuce, chopped onion, cucumber, and tomato)
>shredded red cabbage
>a white sauce that I think is more like the garlic sauce you get from halal carts than tzatziki
In a more square bread that's almost like a crunchy focaccia, that they cut open and shove the ingredients into like a "pocket" (though different places make it different ways, in OP's pic it looks like a thin almost tortilla-like wrap) - see pic related

they're pretty good

>>14933177
Once you eat a good Döner you won't eat everything else. I'm from Germany and only here you can get the real experience. I was in every middle European country and let me tell you, the Döner in Germany tastes the best.

>>14933189
At least in Germany gyros pita is made from pork gyros or less common lamb and served with onions, cabbage salad and tzatziki while döner is made from beef/veal (which is in most cases not even actual meat, but just ground meat) or very rare lamb with onions, iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, red cabbage, cabbage salad and a thin garlic sauce and often some spicy red sauce. The meats of gyros and kebab are seasoned in a similar way, but taste slightly different so it's not just the same with another name.

>>14933177
Yes, unironically best fast food. But get a euro one (german preferably), not those abominations they sell in america/canada.

It's looks good af

>>14933177
Doner, Gyro, Shawarma.... I love them all. Wish i could get some doner kebab here in the states. I even enjoy the shitty Japanese kebab I used to eat while drunk in Tokyo.

>>14933177
they usually fill it with lettuce or cabbage or some other cheap vegetable

>>14933554
And? You need the crunch and freshness to complement the seasoned meat and tangy sauce.

>>14933177
I lived in Berlin for some time, and it really depends on where you get it from.

The doner quality will depend on the place where you buy it. Most places actually buy it from some larger company, and it's sold to them as something akin to a huge sausage.

The best ones I had were the ones where you could actually tell apart the slivers of milk, and had no mystery meat quality to them. They're hard to find, and pricier, but worth it.

I never bothered with the cheap stuff unless I was out drinking with my friends, or something like that.

Shaorma I had in Romania was really good.

Doner Kebab tastes amazing but you need a good salad with it. This was my last one and it was gorgeous.

>Got drunk
>bought donner kebab on the way home
>Tried to eat it
>disgusting
>tried to feed it to my cat
>*nope*

yeah, they're pretty good

>>14933177
depends heavily on the shop
like 30% of them are terrible
another 40% is mediocre
then 20% are good
and 10% are fucking delicious and you can't believe you payed less than 5 quid

>>14933177
Depends how drunk you are when you eat it.

>>14933177
In the UK, this is a Hoagie not a kebab.

>>14933934
>donairs

>>14933597
would you name som good doner joints in berlin?

Germanistan would have good kebab :^)

>>14934005
Sorry anon, it's been too long to remember many specific place.

Mustafa's Gemüse Kebap was extremely hyped. I remember having seen a queue under the god damn rain to buy some fucking doner. Mind you, it's chicken. If you don't like what you see or don't feel like waiting, there's a famous currywust joint just a few meters away, Curry 36.

In my experience, proper sit-down restaurants tend to have a higher quality doner... I was always more of a chicken kebap person, tho. I was really, really trying to remember, but my Berlin life is a blur for some reason.

>>14933182
I'm not a Muslim and I've never had one either.

>>14933177
Yeah tastes great. Usually the meat quality is low though.

>>14933177
how different is this from a gyro

>>14933177
I tried it 3-4 times when I lived in the Netherlands. It was always made by Turks since there are a fuckton of them there so I'd think it's about the same as the average doner you get in Germany.

It sucked, the meat was like eating a piece of leather. Dry as fuck. Gyros is 10 times better.

>>14933934
What the hell is this monstrosity?

>>14933177
Only drunk people and shitskins can stomage that trash. If you are lucky the meat is just spoiled trash made from petfood grade meat, if unlucky it's human flesh from a shitskin's victim.

>>14933177
It varies greatly, depending on who made it.

I can get amazing donerkebab from a nearby Syrian place. But most others are not good.

>>14934635
I had one

>>14933177
enjoy your donkey meat

Gyros,döner,shawarma, whatever variation of the spinning meat on a stick is great.

>>14933177
depends in what country you get it. greek, turkish, canadian, ukranian, mexican etc. are all completely different. ukrainian is probably my favourite but it tastes nothing like an actual kebab

>>14935376
pic related is a typical ukrainian shwarma. looks like dog vomit but tastes amazing

>>14933177
In the mid-00s you could get really good döner in any city at several places in Germany. Nowaydays i got ripped off so many times (döner big but shit / döner OK but fucking small) that i dont bother with it anymore.

At least at mcdonalds i know what to expect

theyre delicious

>>14933177
You should never try it or you will forever crave it.

>>14933177
Being Vegetarian (out of pure choice) and remembering the taste of a good döner, makes it hard to uphold my values.
You should try it, I am german, and I dont know how they are abroad or even in Turkey.

>>14935981
Most doner places sell falafel doner or veggie doner nigga, at least in yurop. The falafel ones are really good and much better than any vegan burger shit.

>>14933177
its like a gyro but less good, not bad though

Gyros with steamed onion, chopped (in season) tomato, tzatziki sauce, feta cheese and sliced kalamata olives on a warm toasty pita makes me cry tears of joy.

Thank you for bringing it up.

>>14933177
just eat a fuckin gyro

>>14933177
Meh. I find the meat very dry. I prefer Turkish pizza

>>14933177
Legit doner kebab is great.

>>14933182

Also legit doner kebab is not easy to find outside of Turkey.

Actual Doner:

>>14933177
German döners are the best. No fucking French fries tho

>>14936676
Lahmacun?

>>14936676
Dude yes, I had this in turkey and loved it. What is it called?

>>14938017
this >>14937962

No matter what country you're in just make sure you get the real thing and not mechanically reclaimed and shaped meat.

1. Real Doner is actual steak, not condensed filler material rotisserie meatloaf.
2. Real Doner is cooked over hot coals arranged cylindrically not even gas
3. Muh gyros/shawarma/alpastor are knockoffs muttified by Ottoman immigrants to Americas.

It's pretty good but not worth going out of your way for. It's basically just a really good burrito.

The kebab restaurant near me has an amazing spicy kebab roll, last time I ordered it they had just got a fresh patch of jalapenos too and threw some of those in there. The spice was on the level of taking a line of speed and it tasted like a kebab sauce covered hentai succubus having sex with my tongue.

I need to go get one of those tomorrow.

>>14933597
Berlin is an antifa-fascist shithole, where the hordes of turks overcharge whitey for their failed gyros

>>14936751
Liar, its a german invention.
