Berlin: Kebab

Kebabs are popular throughout Europe, but it seems to hold special meaning in Berlin where there's about 200,000 (close to 10% of the population!)  Turkish settlers who have moved into Germany starting from the post-war recovery of the 1960s. Hence not only is Kebab an ethnic food amongst the Turkish neighborhoods but has become infused in mainstream Berliner culture, especially during the wee hours after going out drinking. Whether drinking or not, I can have a kebab anytime. Freshly crunchy flat bread with fresh vegetables and thinly sliced fresh halal meat is just what I needed after being meat deprived in Switzerland. Plus it's about $2-4! This is way better than McDonalds for sure. I even had two kebabs one night....oops. Don't regret it at all!

look at this insanely good masterpiece!

I was even lucky enough to eat Mustafa's Kebab which many Berliners claim is THE best. Usually the line is about a 30-45 min wait but because we went there past midnight, a humongous warm kebab was in my hand within 10 minutes!
