The best kebab in HH?

Post by timuphill »

My vote goes to the Kebab shop in Blueport. It's near Amazon cafe and food court. I am not a specialist when it comes to kebabs, but I think this shop has top of the line quality chicken. Also, prices are very reasonable for the amount of chicken you get.

Chicken kebab is bullshit. A real kebab is made with lamb or beef as lamb is expensive in Thailand.

I think you're talking about a 'chicken wrap' which is not a kebab. Kebabs are various meats cooked on a skewer or a Doner kebab which is lamb in pitta bread. Nany's does a real Doner with lamb in Pitta bread with the usual trimmings.

Only in Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket you can find a real beef doner kebab with pita bread and trimming for less than 100 Bhat.

The traditional doner kebab meat is lamb.
Which is what you get at Nany's. Why do I have to repeat myself?

I already tried Nany's lamb kebab. It's OK if you order your trimming in advance and the price is I cannot remember nearly 150 Bhat.

It would appear that Kebabs can be any of a variety of meats and/or vegetables

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kebab

Kebabs are various cooked meat dishes, with their origins in Middle Eastern cuisine. Numerous variants are popular around the world.

A typical ground meat kebab known by various names, which exists in many countries

In many parts of Asia, the Muslim world, and in Indian English and the languages of the Middle East, a kebab is any of a wide variety of grilled meat dishes. Some dishes ultimately derived from Middle Eastern kebab may have different names in their local languages, such as the Chinese chuan. In most English-speaking countries, a kebab is commonly the classic shish kebab or shashlik – small cubes of meat cooked on a skewer– or, outside of North America where it is better known as gyros,the more recent and now-ubiquitous fast-food doner kebab.

Kebabs consist of cut up or ground meat, sometimes with vegetables, and various other accompaniments according to the specific recipe. Although kebabs are typically cooked on a skewer over a fire, some kebab dishes are baked in a pan in an oven or prepared as a stew such as tas kebab.The traditional meat for kebabs is most often mutton or lamb, but regional recipes may include beef, goat, chicken, fish, or more rarely due to religious prohibitions, pork.

Absolutely. Anyone here recall the kebab kid chain in the UK? Their shawarma almost killed off the donor! Wonderful end of evening treat.

Anyway, here's another vote for lady in Bluport, to be found right in front of the ground floor lifts at the rear of the store. 69 baht for a packed chicken kebab (with salad). Kebabs often come in wraps but she also has pitta bread if you prefer. She also sells other kebab related dishes and some Mexican stuff, but I can't abide Mexican food, so can't comment on that. If you want to eat there and then, just take it through to the food court next door.

70 Bhat for chicken, OK. But not for me I prefer chicken BBQ. NOT kebab.

They're 'Chicken Wraps' and can be quite tasty. I've eaten them all over Thailand. Some very good, some not so good.

They shouldn't be compared with a traditional kebab. You'll be disappointed.
