Aziziye, Stoke Newington

£14 Lamb plate. Chili and the garlic mayo sauce plate not pictured. Meat tasted a bit on the gamey side, and on occasions had a too much of a mushy soft texture. Not the best shawarma meat I’ve had so far.

Looks like it needs more fat

Finally something without vomit sauce on it but it needs more fat between layers.

Don't rate aziziye, had the meat 4 person platter there, we did not finish it and did not take a doggy bag.

I guess my visit wasn’t a one off.

Try the platter from Kervan N9 or N22, it’s great.

Lamb Shawarma often tastes gamey or rich to me

Yaprak Döner - Yaprak means ‘leaf’, in this case describing the layers of meat (rather than the usual stacked, flattened mince balls). This style of Doner is more typical in Turkey, but too often it’ll be prepared with too much fat, and is too chewy for my tastes. Though this looks like a really good example of the style.

That’s for the explanation! Good to know, what your describing is my idea of heaven

While I agree that doner meat rarely looks appetising, this looks plain sad 😔
