At Lowell's suggestion, I'm posting this in Discuss Detroit for folks who never venture over to the Detroit Connections page. This year's DetroitYes FSC Holiday Gathering is scheduled for Saturday, December 13, 7:30pm, Park Bar. There's drink. And of course, there's food at the Bucharest Grill, famous for their Chicken Schwarma. Then anyone who is interested can move over to Fishbones Greektown where Dave (aka The Grillmaster) is playing with Thornetta Davis. They go on around 10pm. Come on out and join us! In case you'd like to check the original posting over on the Detroit Connections page: https://www.atdetroit.net/forum/mes sages/10041/163384.html?122856 1057 FSC=Forum Social Club (a very informal group of DYes'ers that occasionally get together) | ||

A number of FSCers rave about the Chicken Shawarma at the Bucharest Grill in the Park Bar. It was quite an attraction for a while... Courtesy of Wikipedia...a shawarma is "a Middle Eastern Arabic-style sandwich usually composed of shaved lamb, goat, chicken, turkey, beef, or a mixture of meats. Shawarma is a popular dish and fast-food staple across the Middle East, it has also become popular worldwide. Shawarma is known as guss in Iraq; it is similar to the gyros of Greece. Gyro, however, are typically made of pork meat, or less commonly chicken, although beef or lamb is usually used outside Greece and Cyprus. The classic shawarma combination is pita bread, hummus, tomato & cucumber, and of course the shawarma. The additional toppings include tahini, and amba." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S hawarma More about the Park Bar and Bucharest Grill: http://www.detnews.com/apps/pb cs.dll/article?AID=/20070216/E NT01/702160415/1033 So definitely show up hungry and thirsty!!! | ||

Thanks so much! I'll definitely try it. Sounds like Doner Kebap in Berlin... See you there, Kathleen. | ||

quote:They are close cousins. The machines used to cook the shawarma meat often say Döner on them. The difference is that a shawarma is a cylindrical pita wrap instead of a flat, square sandwich, and (at the Bucharest Grill at least) they are topped with thick, extremely garlicky sauce. They are excellent. | ||
