For years I have been trying to get my parents to try shawarma, and I finally got this to take the leap of faith in London of all places. Lucky for us, right next to Waterloo station, there is a very noticing Shawarma stand.
The stand is very small, but it is very clean. When you walk up to the window you can see the fresh ingredients and meats (lamb and chicken) that they carve up for your shawarmas. There are several shawarma menu items, and a handful of sides.
The attendants were helpful and friendly, but it was difficult to hear what they were saying (spoke softly).
I love shawarma and I've had so many different kinds and some in the Middle East. This one is very tasty and hearty. While it was nice that the shawarma was loaded with veggies, meats, and other components, I would have liked more of the sauce(s).
This is an easy meal to bring back to your place or to take with you on the go. Check out this stand when you get a chance!
Some tips:
Ask for the salt and vinegar for your fries. Also, if you don't love much spicy heat you can ask them for less of the chili sauce. There is no seating in the immediate area, but if you walk a few blocks you can enjoy your shawarma while sitting on a bench along the Thames.
Cheers!!
