THE owner of one of Dublin’s top kebab shops has warned a massive German chain set to open 40 outlets around the country that “they’re wasting their time”. German Doner Kebab - recently voted the best place in the UK to eat by Tripadvisor - yesterday announced that it will first launch in the capital with a flagship restaurant in 2020. Tony Mekhalfia, who runs Babylon on Camden Street, said he’s not worried about the new competition. They added that plans are also afoot to open a further 40 stores across the country. But Tony Mekhalfia, who runs Babylon on Camden Street, said he’s not worried about the new competition.He told the Irish Sun: “There’s no room for them to open on Camden Street so we’re not worried.“I believe in loyalty and in good people. I have always wanted to Babylon to be a nice, safe place for people to eat and we’ve achieved that. “We have 100 per cent Irish produce and Irish suppliers because loyalty is very important. “If a new chain wants to come in then the best of luck.
Dublin’s original kebab shop is set to close its doors later this month for a major refurbishment and relaunch following nearly 28 years of providing late-night snacks to hungry city-centre revellers. Iskander’s Kebab House on Dame Street, which has been in operation since 1992, will close on January 19th to allow for a complete renovation of the premises. The late-night food takeaway was recently bought by the Aydin family who say they are planning to reopen in mid-February as a more upmarket restaurant.

I've frequented the parliament street branch regularly (often once a week) for the past 8 years and I'm delighted to see they are expanding and opening other branches in places like Swords and Ranelagh as of lately.

I think many foreign owners of these places to not understand the appeal for proper fresh cut chips. I remember a polish lad in work saying he thought them (Italian chipper chips) strange at first but grew to love them. There were 2 Chinese takeaways in stillorgan and I usually went to one as they did freshly cut chips they were like not like anything I had before.
