Doner Meat

I love kebabs shish / kofte kebabs, the only problem is that (hardly)nowhere in Newcastle does them! Actually... does anyone know of a kebab shop around Newcastle that does shish / kofte?

Question is, how many of these types of meal would you eat normally, not drunk, not on a night out - just normally.

Lunch time, for example. I bet very few.

Once I walk into a kebab shop I'm usually so wasted I just ask for a Donner and chips. I get a few (make that several hundred) take-away menus every week for places in Gateshead and some of them claim to offer proper kebabs. I could have a look for you, but it would probably end with me ordering a load of food :(

And for Shosecki, I used to work in a pizza shop (when I was 20) and I used to take it home and eat it the next day :)

On a similar note, I used to go out with a girl whose brother-in-law used to supply kebab meat to (in his own words) "90% of the kebab shops in the North-East"........... and he used to bring the stuff home and eat it (and let his kids eat it!). Now if the people making the stuff are that confident that it's safe, who am I to argue?

I don't but only because I don't often find myself walking past kebab shops at lunchtime, and even less ones that are open. I have eaten there in the past though at school and things.
 
There's loads of people in here (myself included) trying to reassure themselves that donner meat is not made from stuff like cats/dogs/toenails but from the finest, premium cuts just so they can get one next time they get drunk, even though they know, deep down, that it probably is made from stuff they scraped out of the gutter at the abbatoir...



But with mint sauce and mayo...mmmm...
 
I worked as a pizza chef when I was at school/college in my village, with the horrible normal 'lumps' of donar. One, I never liked the look of the Turks dropping the frozen lumps off. Two, its not meat its mush, with white bits of fat/bone/cartlidge every so often. Three, its was often re-heated in the bain marie... and its not like its 'quality' meat either. Four, and it should seriously carry a health warning, the fat from it is a luminous yellow. All round quite a manky thing in my eyes.

Although a nice donar off the BBQ when the weather is good can't be beaten! :D I'm hungry...

haha - that's the ones.....I've ordered from them once in the 14 months I've lived here, and it was hardly inspiring food - so I reckon they've spent more on leaflets through my door than I have on food from them :)
