Kebab: No Squire Required

As we walked around Florence in search of some late night food, we stumbled upon heaven! We saw a huge line waiting formed outside this whole-in-the-wall restaurant. We ordered what everyone else ordered, kebabs. Imagine our surprise when instead of meat and veggies on a squire we get: French fries, chipotle sauce, lamb, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and yogurt sauce all wrapped up in a toasted gyro. I cannot even explain to you the flavors that attack your mouth. It’s so spicy, so refreshing, so juicy, so PERFECT.

Now, we have kebab in Rome, but nothing has yet to compare to the amazing “kebab/gyro/burrito thing” we ate in Florence.

Ps. we got kebabs all three nights we were there!

  1. Kebabs are everywhere in New Zealand! When I first went to order one I was also expecting the meet and veggies on a stick kind of deal and was surprised when I got a burrito. But it was nothing like a burrito. Like you said the flavors really do "attack your mouth." At the Kebab Stop on our campus they allow three choices of sauces (I always get the garlic yogurt, lemon tahini, and mayo) and I can taste every one of them as well as all the spices mixed in with the meet! They are soooo delicious!
