The Mighty Kebab

[Bin Ont Turf]

The “meat” is always at its best when taken straight from the spit, as opposed to having it steamed soggy for a couple of hours in a Bain Marie…
Bin the lettuce, it has NO place on a kebab. Plenty of shredded cabbage with a few cucumbers and tomato slices, fresh onions and chili sauce liberally applied and pickled chillies on top.

If someone finds that anywhere, please let us know.

Spot on.

I only got in to kebabs because of Follies in Nelson. No one will have had a better kebab in the country as was had there.

Shame he went on the pizza route.

Istanbul at Colne is the nearest you're going to get to old school like.

Follies is a blast from the past. Proper kebabs then, always proper packed pitta, none of this naan business

The best kebabs don’t come in naan breads or pittas, they come in durum wraps. You tend to get good ones in the major German cities, I remember a fantastic one in Düsseldorf. When I stay at my brother’s in London we have found a gem called City Kebab in Stoke Newington. An old Turkish guy, a master at his art, a craftsman. We usually make it in there just before closing and enjoy one with a weird salty yoghurt drink whilst watching a Turkish soap opera (Middle Eastenders?) on his modest flat screen.

Fao Stubsy
I worked in Bordon a couple of yrs ago and there was an excellent kebab van frequented by squaddies who parked their halftracks nearby
Sold belly buster burgers cash up front for £25

The kebab van after Stickys or the snooker club was a regular for many

Remas in Barrowford is always cracking for a kebab

After all the jibba jabba yesterday me and Mrs WellerNut have had Remas tonight for supper

Still superb

Tara in Rosegrove do a great kebab.

For a daytime treat, Mansha on Colne Road do a wonderful one.

[ŽižkovClaret]

Had a Mixed kebab from Sumbuls Saturday night. Decent, if a little smaller than previous but no bad thing.

They used to…. They were most excellent. Then they stopped making their own naan breads, and replaced em with the nasty supermarket version. Not had one since.

Tulsi used to the best kebabs in Burnley, since its shut i haven’t found a place half as good.

Tara’s…

Agree re Tulsi.

Burnley Kebabz seemed a decent replacement but have only had it once.

I appreciate the meme, Dave, but I assure that you that I do NOT need the Amazon link.

[Sheedyclaret]

We tried Turkish best last night it was absolutely dreadful most of it went in the bin

I mourn the loss of Tulsi. I have a couple of other good options, but Tulsi was every time.

Yeah it's crap, especially the chicken. Tough as boots

Whats the other options ?

Hawaali is decent at Padiham

Tara in Rosegrove is our main go-to - however, they're cash only which means we can't always use them for delivery.
We like Aroma, too... it used to be quite expensive, but I think that most other takeaways have caught up now.

Don't do donner but their mixed kebab is out of this world

If I'm at Tara, I'm having chicken tikka tangile bhaji - a dry, medium spiced curry, with onions, peppers and mushrooms. Delicious. Tulsi used to do something similar.

[ClaretsPadiham]

Was going to try Burnley kebabz the other night then found out it has a 2 star hygine rating

[ClaretsPadiham]

Had the red donner meat from Big B’s the other night. Very good.

Ending the name in Z is an automatic, additional 2* deduction from me.

I don't usually order online but did order one from a local takeaway. I selected salad and chilli sauce.

The whole thing was covered with a curry type sauce making everything soggy.

A bit strange but some may comment that I deserved what I got.
