Do you enjoy a Kebab?

[said]

Considering you have never had one you seem to know a lot about the inside of at least one Kebab shop. And you admit to have seen phones charging in the wash basin, bit of a BULLSHI**ER really aren't you?

Perhaps these shops have windows??

[Hamble]

Much rather have a Herta Jumbo Frankfurter which needs cooking. Pan fried in a little oil or on a hot plate - luverly in a fresh roll

Thank you for the recommendation.

[jamyramy]

am not squeamish about the relavant parts of the animals composition .weve become sterilised into being choosy!if your hungry all parts are protien and sustanance.that said if i say so myself ,pretty dam good cooker.so appreciat good cuts of meat.my biggest gagging is the additives and enhancers added to those bitsof what would be throw offs not the meat itself.that said a good donner genuine donner is an occassional indulgence.ps proper german hotdogs sausages unlike are own are more pulverised into a pate like consistancy,same meats like our more meaty sausage tastes here,just more ground down.then again chippy sausages yep not the best but always somehow moorish on occassions

Yes with a washbasin full of mobile phones strategically placed to entice morons.

About 7 yrs ago on Lord st there was an open air European market type thing going on and at the corner of Neville st there was this stall selling German or Hungarian or some sort of foreign sausage delicacy in a bun with onions, they smelled really good and were £3 each ( that’s a fiver in today’s money ) so I bought one for me and one for my young son.
They were cooking in a great big open pan type dish, just before we walked away with them I took a peek down over the edge into the stall and guess what … bundles of Asda cheapest frozen sausages were thawing out and lining up to be cooked, we got banging headaches off the cheating rat bstards.
I used to eat kebabs but got wise to them after learning about them and also suffering off my last one , yea they taste good but so would a turd with chilly sauce on it .
There is such a thing as a hamburger headache it’s that feeling you get when you come back from a badly managed fair, show or event where burgers are quickly cooked to sell to the many and are only half cooked and a bit pink in the middle but you don’t notice that when you are stuffing them in your face, when you get home with a headache you think it’s because of a day out in the sun but it’s not it’s undercooked meat, this is why I don’t do bbqs.
It’s Barton’s pork sausages and horseshoe black puddings for me oven cooked

I've never eaten a doner kebab and never will, the look is enough to put me off.

Only eat proper butchers sausage the wobbly things you get in a tin look disgusting!

It is amusing that Home Bargains sell a bag of 5 sausage rolls for £1, the cheese and onion variety is 3 for £1 dread to think of the content of the meat version, ears, tails and oink?

Rarely enter McDonalds, the smell as you pass should be a deterrent.

I agree on the smell.
Summer is the season of affliction for burger/hotdog vans on wheels.

If the offal is cheap I cannot imagine the cooking oil is any less appealing.

I have never drank enough liquid hors d oeuvres to fancy one.

I've tried them. Alcohol was involved. It's been about 15 years since I last tried one. Last time there was a pizza / kebab place on Nevill St, so we're going back a bit.

Him indoors likes a shish from ''Turkish Delight' about once a year. It is recognisable as lamb on skewers, and doesn't taste half bad. I have to sample a bit of meat or the smell from the garlic and chilli sauces would have him consigned to the spare room.

Indeed, it is getting increasingly difficult to buy chicken products that are not 'chopped and formed'. I don't eat red meat so it might be the same for that too. I am always suspicious that what has been 'formed' is not all that it claims to be. Pity really as I do enjoy a nice chicken kiev but you have to scour the shelves to find one that is actually a chicken breast not a shaped one.

My neighbour gets them from Tesco. About £3.50 for two. Actual chicken breasts, she says.

We often used to tuck in to sausages from there. That market would irregularly pop up. The sausage place would be located opposite the entrance to Waterstones, yes? I'm afraid it took us a while to make the connection between their delicacies and subsequently feeling rough.

I avoid hot dogs like the plague. If I'm ever tempted, I always remember what goes into them. Which is everything, basically.

The only exception was 'Westlers' dogs from the fair. Whenever we took the kids, I had to have a Westlers. Having said that, I smothered them in ketchup and mustard, so how much hot dog I was tasting is debateable.

I just know if a vegan salad bar was open all night it would not be in danger of poaching customers!

On the plus side one rarely hears of these days the tragedy of alcohol induced hunger house fires.
A chip pan and falling asleep.

I think that the only ones that might be remotely reasonable are authentic German ones, we all need to be more vigilant over the ingredients of what we eat and this country is relaxing food standards to get trade deals.

The only we sausages we buy (infrequently) are M&S Angus beef & Pepper sausages.

Kosher Vienna Savoloy.
