Doner Kebab in Sarasota

The razor sliced thin meat that is doner is now frequently served with or as an aside with shish kebab. There is, amongst the growing eating-out-culture in the UK, a number of kebab shops taking their place in trendier areas where slow food is more common than the faster variant. Upper Street, Islington, for instance, has a high proportion of kebab outlets offering both the ambience and setting of a more traditional Istanbul kebab restaurant.

Harringay also has a number of established outlets which are full to the rafters throughout the week with people looking to both eat in and take away. These are the very same areas, starting from the top of Green Lanes and heading central, where kebabs began their life in London. That Harringay is often called little Istanbul is testament to the sights and aroma created by the kebab shops that line the corridor. There still remains enough of an exotic nature to the dishes to keep British culture interested. New recipes and innovations take place alongside older traditions that are introduced into the UK new.

You can't go much further north in England that Newcastle. Here again, the kebab has taken hold with a number of establishments dotting the high street. It's no surprise then that local icon Cheryl Cole recently exclaimed that she's going to show Will-I-Am, the RnB producer, what the north East is all about in terms of a night out by referencing the doner, she said: "I'm taking Will to Bigg market for a kebab. I'm planning to take him out up there."

There is a distinctive taste, preparation and presentation to the UK kebab. Meat served in pitta, for instance, is a UK trait. Similarly, UK chilli sauce has a different taste than the Anatolian variant. There are also variations of doner kebab, the middle-eastern shawarma, and the Greek gyro, with each taking hold in different areas of the country.

Values is, of course, still a major factor in the kebab's popularity and is surely one of the main reasons that kebab one of the most popular dishes in the UK. With most kebab shops keeping prices below £5, consumers often find more value in the ready to eat kebab then they might in buying and preparing meat with a salad side.
