The Boston Area’s Best Falafel, Shawarma, and Kebabs | Eater Boston

"A number of Middle Eastern establishments have previously occupied the notorious white brick building in Cambridge’s Central Square; now the distinctive castle-shaped spot is home to Aleppo Palace. This Syrian restaurant offers some of the area’s best sandwiches stuffed in warm singular pitas. At around six inches in diameter, the pita bread is toasted crispy on the outside but soft and doughy in the middle: Think of it as an Arabic arepa. Try the lamb and beef shawarma pita in particular, in which the juicy meat is spiced well and embellished with some crunchy bits from the vertical rotisserie spit. Note: All of the meat served at Aleppo Palace is halal. Aleppo Palace currently offers curbside pickup (direct ordering) and delivery (Caviar, Grubhub)."
