Doner Kebaps

No, there is not a lot of late night food stands open in Strasbourg. However, on every other corner or so, there is a doner kebap shop. And it's great :)


I'm finishing the last of tonight's doner kebap, purchased shortly after departing an awesome Irish pub. It's delicious, and at less than 5 Euro a pop, it's totally worth it. I'll get a picture up as soon as possible, but if you've ever had a pita, it's sort of like that, except taco style and the bread is much thicker. And the fact that they put meat on the very bottom and very top? Parfait. It's actually quite different than a pita as well because they shave the meat off a huge piece that's rotating on a skewer in front of you.  It really adds to the experience. And from what the man said who ran the establishment, it's the best doner kebap in all of Alsace and Germany (of course). How did he know? I asked; well of course, he's a professional.




It's really the only food I can recommend eating after midnight in this area of France. And eating this particular kebap with an awesome Aussi on Australia Day? Even better :) We both stuffed our faces, laughed at the whole thought of the situation, and then found our way home through the fog descending on Strasbourg.
