“Alexa, what’s Greek for “Hello”?” “γεια σας.” γεια σας, dear readers! A visit to Yiamas has been long overdue. For all I talk of Glasgow’s kebab district; the plethora of decent food available in the environs of West Nile Street, Yiamas has been a notable omission. To make matters worse, I went and reviewed the […]
Hello, Today’s been a bit of an odd day, truth be told. I won’t bore you with the details, but I narrowly avoided a panic attack in a shoe shop. “A shoe shop?” I imagine I hear you say? Well, yes. A combination of factors at play; holiday anxiety, a hangover, and a salesperson who […]
Hello! A short one, at short notice. Have been summoned, unexpectedly, to a works do (alas, running this website is not a paid position from the British Kebab Board but a labour of love). Turns out Döner Haus was the venue. Happy to say my colleagues are impressed! Overall: very good! This is not a […]
Hallo! Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without the Radio Times, or at least that’s what they say on the adverts. Here are some other things which, I’m sure you will agree, are inextricably linked with Christmas time: Father “Daddy” Christmas Tinsel The mad rush to make sure you’ve used up all your annual leave The tedious […]
Hi! The more observant of you, dear readers, will have noticed something unusual about this review, and that’s no mean feat, considering we are less than 50 words in. The word “pizza” appears in the title. Pizza? On a blog, ostensibly about grilled meat? What’s that all about? Well, guess what. I am an adult. […]
Guten tag. Today’s adventure in Kebabland takes us to an old favourite, Döner Haus. Having received a tip off (by that, I mean having read Foodie Explorers) that Döner Haus had an Oktoberfest menu, and that Oktoberfest menu had an Oktoberfest Kebap on it, I had to investigate. Behold! The kebap! (Kebab). Let’s look at […]
Oi oi. I was on holiday recently. Well, I say a holiday, more of a city break. Well, I say a city break… more of a… I went to Bromley. “But why would you want to do that?” Good question. Partly homesickness (I grew up in nearby Sydenham and I try to visit at least once a […]
(n.b. there was no actual battle, this is just a metaphor) I had no plans to go out and eat kebabs today. Today was just going to be a normal day, sitting in, heating on, playing Forza Horizon 4 and seeing how many trams on a pretty damn realistic looking Princes Street I could destroy […]
Right! Time to skip the usual introductory pissing about, because with this kebab the picture really does tell the whole story: Look at that. I mean, look at it. For the interests of fairness, yes, there is a filter on the photo, however it doesn’t mean that this is unauthentic – I just needed to […]
Hello! In a recent discussion with a vegan about this very blog, he was very complimentary about the writing (yeah, it’s alright, I guess, but won’t win any awards or nothing) but lamented the fact that, as things had to die in the making of the foods that I eat and then loosely write about, […]
