Kebabs in Germany...

[stek]

sadly 'tis true unless you goto the English shop if your city is lucky enough to have one OR you bring back in bulk each time you go back to the uk..

ahh a Bacon Sarnie for breakfast with a runny egg on a nice barm cake.. mmmm

Aye but I suffer dreadfully here in Leeds for the lack of käsewurst....

Swings and Roundabouts, Swings and Roundabouts...

...had a few amazing beers and wandered into the nearest kepap shop...

I think we found what made the kebab so wonderful...

You really should try "Beef Bacon" and "Beef Ham" both served up as a Saudi salaam to breakfast.... well to be honest you really shouldn't bother!

been there, done that, my brother lives in Oman and the "Full English" was not what I was expecting for breakfast..

oh I quite like that beef bacon...but it's certainly no subsitute...just different

if you crave pork I can probably get you the address of a butcher there.

You have to know the code words though..."a kilo of flat nose beef please"

German Döner kebabs usually include a slice of feta cheese to add some extra yumminess. A trip to Berlin isn't complete without one...

Invented in Germany as well, Berlin to be precise...but not all Doners are good, I've had some pretty rough ones.

We had a young chap come out to work some years ago and after a few weeks his wife and young baby moved out to be with him. One night he went out for a couple of beers and on the way home had the obligatory Doner which overnight fermented inside his Darm (German for guts) causing an enourmous amount of leakage and pain. Off he crawled and wobbled to the doctor whereupon it was announced that he had 'Doner Belly' which is pretty much a mixture of Montezuma's Revenge and the Ottoman Empire rebelling in your insides. He was hospitalised but sadly during the stay there he seemed to contract some other kind of illness which put him flat on his back for, a non-German speaking coloured chap, an eternity. The trouble was, he was still on his probation, his wife didn't speak German and he had already spent his relocation allowance and as this was basically a self inflicted injury his employment was, to put it bluntly, terminated like the castration of a bullock. Cue one very skint, sick and well pissed off Englishman and the moral of this story is: Beware of the Doner 'cos it might Blitz you.

(Then there is the story of the scouser here who pulled an Italian bird who said she was a virgin, went back to her place for some of the old horizontal Mambo, room split into half with a curtain behind which was a baby, apparently someone else's, along with the itchy sack infection he caught from her)

There is, believe it or not, a German/English club in Leeds. Do interesting talks at the UR Hall in Headingley.

I know there is a tradition of a German Xmas market in Leeds.

Maybe you should ask about...
