tropo Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Any feedback on the Turkish pumpuey joint at the foot of walking street? Quite tasty, but very oily... also they go overboard on the sauces, so ask for less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaaSaparot Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 (edited) Remember the days when there was just the one guy doing this, at Marine Plaza ........... sorry ! The Egyption guy featured in this thread was one of the founding purveyors of street kebabs. He used to have a stationary street cart parked directly opposite The Avenue, before it was built, in 2006. At that time it wasn't easy to find kebabs. Not long after McDonald's opened in 2007 he moved to the hole-in-the-wall shop on 2nd Road and the quality of his product went downhill. He lost that personal touch because he started hiring staff and they were never the same again. Soon after he moved every man and his dog started selling kebabs. Over the space of a few years 3 others opened shops near his and mobile units starting popping up all over town. I'll bet he dreams of the money he used to make on his old street cart. I am talking about Mid-80's for the first one at Marine Plaza. The second kebab stall to open up was on Soi 8 about 10 years later. There was many Kebab stalls by the time 2006 came round IMO.

manarak Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Doner is Turkish. Schwarma is Arabic. I find the street stuff like that here appallingly bad. People must be very drunk to actually think it's good. My reference point is a Palestinian schwarma place in San Francisco, about 10 times better. you forgot Greek gyros. it's all actually the same thing, with minor variations, it spread around the mediterranean.
