somewhere near/on loi kroh or mikes burgers. has to be within shooting range of all the falang. near spicy may work too, but i heard they are moving

dont bother with the night bazzar. - maybe it would work in anusarn market, but its mostly short time tourists who want to eat at a "real thai" restaurant.

It really would be great on the moat road where everyone seems to be referring. I bet it would do really well on the Suthep road as well, the traffic on that street is amazing.

Thanon Chiang Moi seems to be the takeaway ghetto of Chiang Mai at the moment with Mikes Burgers, Piggies, pinkys and around the corner Spankies a kebab shop would fit in nicely.

I give a strong 2nd on the lamb

chicken is just boring, pork sharwarma is just gross and nobody ever does beef well in thailand

so one lamb skewer please.

have some good raita to go along with it and you are golden.

Definitely avoid the Night Bazaar. The last shawarma stand lasted all of about 4 weeks there. The location that the others mentioned is the best central location.

And please offer chicken shawarma...whatever the dark colored meat the other place in Night Bazaar offered looked gross. We couldn't eat it.

Chok dee!

... until we had had 4 large changs.

Great news!!  I would love a Taco al pastor please. If you can make gyro/shawarma then you can make Taco al pastor also.

That would be my suggested additional item on the menu. :D  

About the location, I saw Mikes Express on Nimmanhaemin Road only a small counter.

However, I personally would follow wherever there's good food.

I think it was supposed to be beef, and the places was run by indians. :) But it is impossible to get good beef in LOS, unless it is imported from NZ of course and then those will be some expensive sharmwas.

had high hopes about that last one, however inedible food and bad location for target customer base (backpackers, drunks, locals and local drunks - which one are you?)

There was also that place on chaing moi just past loi kroh, run by an arab. but that must have been 4 years ago, but was not the best, but closer to the bars so they survived a bit longer.

so we can all agree then, one chicken and one lamb and we will let you in.

Actually the one in the Night Bazaar was run by a very friendly and attractive Thai lady. :D In fact her stand is still there but only sells drinks and Turkish coffee now. I haven't seen her around recently.

Maybe we are thinking of different places, the one I am talking about was at the end of Loi Kroh almost at the Night Bazzar right next to the 7-11 - in a little tiny hole in the wall. Looked like it was run by the indian/nepali tailor mafia. food was horrible and I don't think it lasted long.

there is a guy who shows up sometimes at the sunday market in one of the wats, that makes a passable... shrawma - I think he told me that he had a shop somewhere, but I never bothered to go looking.

I think the guy at the Wat you are referring to is the brother of the guy from Royal India. Or some family connection. His shawarma are pretty good. Another relative - sister in law or something, used to show up at at the night market at Meechok Plaza on Monday nights. I haven't seen her for a year now.

Having been involved in a restaurant before, I have to ask if plan on relocating and opening a restaurant "immediately" at a location garnered from these suggestions or are you just getting ideas of areas to look at after you move?

And then I have to ask..... you asked for menu suggestions but can not talk with your chef? You imply he makes one good dish (you didn't say everything he makes is great but the shawarma really stands out). So, how are you going to build a menu when you can't tell the chef what to make?

My appologies if I am overworking your simple requests for locations and menu items.

Outside Powerhouse Gym would be nice - just kidding.

As others have already suggested - in the Thapae Gate area would be best. Somewhere between Loi Kroh and Spicy's I reckon.

Near Rim Ping (near Central Airport Plaza) or at the Maehia Market would be convenient for me. I like chicken, beef and lamb shawarma's. In Istanbul, I had a very nice sauce with a doner kebab.

Don't worry, supply a good product at value for money and you'll get all the advertising you need via others. smile.gif
