History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 Ottoman Turkey, made famous in Beirut📅 19th century🌯 LB

Shawarma comes from the Turkish word for 'turning', after the tall stack of meat that turns slowly in front of a fire. Cooks shave thin slices off the outside as it browns.

In Beirut, shawarma became the city's favorite fast food, sold late into the night. Lebanese emigrants then took it around the world.

⭐ Why It's Famous

The mix of spiced, crispy meat, garlicky tahini and sour pickles in warm bread is hard to beat.

💡 Fun Fact

Without a turning spit at home, cooking thin marinated strips in a very hot pan gives the same crispy edges.
