denver_c Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Babba Shawarma, astig yun. Yung nasa mister kebab and persian cafe sa malapit sa sulo hotel, ok din. But nothing beats the original from the middle east Quote Link to comment
bilbo_baggins Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I have tried the shawarma at Araneta and found it a bit bland. Same thing at Town Center in Alabang - a concoction (fusion) of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and Filipino spices. I still prefer what we enjoy here in Jeddah prepared by Lebanese men. However, they tend to be too oily but I guess that’s what make me salivate. I prefer chicken over beef or mutton glazed with a little hot sauce....sluuuurppp!!! Quote Link to comment

bilbo_baggins Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Those shawarma stalls in Harisson Plaza..<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yipeee!!! Tried that before (am from Salama District).... really good! :thumbsupsmiley: That from Corniche Center along the main road isn't as good as before. :thumbsdownsmiley: I wonder if they have changed their recipe (secret one as in KFC). Try one from Shawarmatec and that from Shami... they are not too oily. Just enough to keep your lips moist! But not too much, you'll end up running to the toilet... ooops ...talking from personal experience! :boo: Quote Link to comment

greenarrow Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I like shawarma although not often. I buy my shawarma at greenhills. Quote Link to comment
Aramis742 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Just to add, the place everyone refers to in Manila is called "Shawarma Snack Center", and was formerly known as "Golden Ship". I'd stick to the chicken Shawarma though... a friend of mine asked the owner how he's able to keep the prices down for the beef; he said his secret was CARABEEF! Anyway, it's still a good place... don't limit yourself to the Shawarma and try the Chicken Biryani and the Falafel. And the Taquire (peppermint) Tea. Quote Link to comment
desertpinoys Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Lucky me, I've tasted the probably the best Shawarma in the world..here in the UAE.."Farrouj al Awadi" is the name of the Resto..since then nothings compares to the taste..especially the one wtih that garlic sauce in hot & spicy marinade.

Its been a long time since I last tasted their shawarma. Makabalik nga. Thanks to Aramis for the tip about the beef or rather carabeef shawarma. Quote Link to comment

Phrozhen.Khold Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 shawarma is always good kahit san pa yan <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That actually depends on the preparation of the beef... and the dressing... The good part is... I've never tasted a badly prepared one... Quote Link to comment
