MEAT DISH

I opted for the menu. First of all, the fries were delicious, they were runny, but very salty. The burger was excellent; the way they flattened and spread the meat thinly enhanced the flavor. The portion was filling. I definitely recommend it.

I chose a cheese croissant, but it was cold, so I wouldn't recommend eating it if it's not fresh. It wasn't very crispy; it was just a plain croissant.

Pommes box - Mangal Döner X Lukas Podolski Image
7.10

So I tried every kind of dish here, and I thought I'd try the local specialty, so I also tried the Pommes Box, but I didn't like it very much. It wasn't very appealing, not filling at all, and the potatoes were too hot, burning my mouth. The taste was still good, but I'd recommend the regular bread döner to anyone who comes here.

We ordered it while drinking beer; it was fresh and the cheese was good, but it was just like a regular pizza from a regular shop. The shop owner was a great guy, hello to him!

I opted for lavash döner this time; it was delicious, the sauce was just the right amount of spiciness, and the meat was good, but there could have been more toppings. The tzatziki sauce wasn't appealing at all; the bread was sticky, but it was tasty and could be eaten occasionally.

When ordering, I told the kebab guy to customize it to his liking, and he prepared a feast of flavors; it was something else entirely. The best German kebab I've ever had. The sauce, the spiciness, the abundance of ingredients were amazing. I'm craving it even as I write this.
