    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Almost anywhere I've been in Germany.

    I wouldnt' touch Abrakebabara with a bargepole.
    Theres a small place in Dublin city centre off the beaten track which makes fantastic kebabs. Even the Germans who visited me said it was better than theirs. Only problem is its twice the price of a typical German kebab which they weren't slow to point out. Where is it ? Well that would be telling. I don't want the place to be packed out next time I visit ;)

    A place called the Kebab Palace on the lower Mell Road in Drogheda sells the best kebabs I have ever had in my life, sober and drunk. I've often thought about driving back out there from Dublin just to get another one.
    A kebab out there is about foot long and a thick as your leg. :)

    Ishkanders on Dame street Dublin City. not sure I've been since the fire, I've heard they've gotten smaller since then :o

    Ricks burgers usually wins the fight for an end of night pig out though.

    ah but it's like when lots of tourists visit some unspoiled piece of coastline and leave their empty beer cans on the beach and take the sand home with them. I don't dare ruin my secret kebab shop. They make amazing kebabs and have been established for years at least since 2004. The funny thing is they never expanded or moved onto the main street and are quite hard for new customers to find ;) In fact their location is quite odd considering how good they are.

    For all you know the place is about to go out of business and the extra custom will mean it can stay open so you can enjoy the kebebs well into the future.

    I agree with you there alright. KC's in Douglas is pretty good too...you have to be prepared to queue though!

    You make a persuasive argument sir. However upon reflection it seems to be doing well since it has been established for about a decade and always has customers... just not too many to make queuing painful. It's just that most of the drunken slobs who go there don't realize just how good it is on an international i.e Germanic scale and are probably too hungover to remember the next day. However I have had visiting ''Kebab experts'' from Germany, Tunisia and Prague rate this place and it scores 10 out of 10 on everything except for price which is normal by Irish standards but extortionate by German standards.

    I never had any trouble getting in there. Ive always been locked though so cant remember what sort of knock I made. Theres always the Gigs place up the road though,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Bests in Sligo (I'm pretty sure that's the name of the place, was very hazy whenever I wound up there)

    Absolute monster of kebabs they always gave me and a mate since we would arrive before the crowd and have a bit of craìc frequently with the friendly staff.

    Stuff you wouldn't touch sober but, good grief, they were divine when you're hammered.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,804 ✭✭✭pappyodaniel


    Robertos in Sligo. There was so much of it that I gorged on it, made myself sick and then finished it off.

    Charcoal Grill in Galway. Don't need to be drunk to enjoy it either.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 292 ✭✭Eroticfishcake


    I've never had a kebab. I don't really know why not, meat looks a bit funky rotating on the big skewer type yoke. Think I may now be inspired to try one today.

    Agreed, easily the nicest kebab I've had. Anyone in the local area that likes their kebabs and haven't tried here, I'd highly recommend it.
