The Best Shawarma in London | Eater London

"As the main event at Berenjak’s new mezze medley joint in Arcade Hall, this is as gloriously flavourful and fatty as shawarma gets. Experimenting with separate chicken and lamb shawarmas, the chefs eventually opted for one shawarma option with a 75 to 25 percent ratio of lamb to chicken. As the spit turns, a mixture of lamb fat, schmaltz and butter is continually basted on the meat, which has been spiced with kashmiri chilli, black pepper, turmeric and saffron. Diners can order the shawarma in a khobez wrap with hummus, toum, tomato, red onion, salted cucumber, parsley, or opt for a portion of hummus adorned with shawarma and confit garlic and tomato as part of a broader mezze selection." - Joel Hart
