I LOVE doner kebabs and most of the time just have them as an evening treat rather than a post-drink recovery aid.

Shaving delicious slices off to put in a pita bread with lettuce, tomato, pickled chilli, cucumber, raw onions, ketchup, mayo, chilli sauce and a side of fries.



It is the food of choice for the drunken hordes of the UK.


Personally, I was introduced to the falafel on moving to Bristol and I never looked back. Your mouth feels far less like a rat nested in it when you wake the next day...

Hey by the way Dogma's pizza looks fething nice, but I am partial to a doner meat pizza as well when im ten pints deep.

Oh and Henners is right mate, I meant "quality" as in a proper good craic, not quality as in the pubs, pizzashops and strip joints in question are actually of a good standard.

I am also told Plymouth was the first city to see the kebabmeat pizza... high culture indeed!

If you ever make it to Chicago, you must try the Italian beef/green pepper pizza.

That looks very nice. I've had a true philly cheese steak and very much enjoyed it.

Oh, they are not comparable. Chicago Italian beef, properly, has different spices and giardiniera...maybe some provolone...nd always gets dipped in the gravy. It looks like this...

They make 'em here too, but we call them Greek pizzas, or some such nonsense.

Also, if you ever make it Chicago-side, we'll have to indulge in some of the tastier staples.

Defo mate, Im off there this year cos our lass has a friend just moved there.

I bet that big wet sub is spot on by the way, It looks fething lovely. I think food always tastes better when its wet!

It reminded me a place in LA you must have heard of cos its super famous in CA, I think ive ate there about 100 times. They do Pickled eggs as well.

I used to live a couple hours from Kansas city, that place is lame.

I never cared much for Seoul (my apologies for offending any Koreans). Way too much pollution. Easily one of the dirtiest places I've lived.

I never hear anything good about Detroit, apparently that place is rapidly turning into a rundown ghost town.

London is a gak hole,
but if your looking for a nice place to eat, try borsch and cheers.
And if the guy with an acoustic guitar is there chuck him a few bob.
He'll play anything you like.

I know Philippe's, even ate there once.

This place would give you a laugh as well. Would need to hit it up.

Well WTF lads. I came in here to see how terrible our countries are, and instead Im leaving with my mouth watering and wishing I had lunch already made. I hate you all

This thread is making me hungry. Going to go eat some soup, now.

Frazzled is not far off on his description of Dallas.

Wollongong. Too many Street Gangs, Youth Unemployment, Crime and other bad things.

Ok what happened to this thread? It was all about hating on cities, Now its all about food... This doesn't look good for us fat war gamers.

I have often heard that KC has the best BBQ in the US, Is that true?

People are killed in gang war around London. Sad but true. Everyday someone seems to get murdered. And who doesn't remember the London riots.
Worst place to live? In the West: Fife in Scotland. Creepy little place. Anywhere else? Sangin, Afghanistan.

well, have to represent my hometown, so i have to put Saint Louis in the running if not at the top, especially east saint louis, that is a BAD place

Well I dunno if I have the best BBQ in the US, but certainly in this thread

Sorry chumm, everyday some one gets murdered in most large cities, the big smoke is bio different (arguable a little safer than most defo the ones youn list).

Once again Ive had another Great night out in London, the beer was awesome the lades were better I got offered another job, did I mention the beer?
It's all speculative chums; if you are scratching your areas in crapsville USA then it always seems rubbish at home. Me, I've liked most places I've been, even Belgium... The beer always helps btw.

I was going to reply to PapaPiggy again, because his post made me angry. But seeing as the thread has devolved into something more amusing, I'll leave it be.

Worcester Mass.

The armpit of New England.

Same. I fething love a kebab, me. Matty couldn't believe I ate them sober when he first came to visit with me at my new gaff, but kebabs are pretty much uniformly awesome in Manchester.

I also love a doner pizza, too. I'm not alowed those, though. Too much of a fat bastard at present!

rockerbikie wrote:Wollongong. Too many Street Gangs, Youth Unemployment, Crime and other bad things.

No where as bad as blacktown though.
But worst place I've seen is Kingston Ontario. Just across from detroit... with none of the charm. So polluted you leave you models on the windowsill to strip them... if they haven't been stolen.

Colorado.... I know it is a state but have you been there? Lethal bit of the state is you die of boredom.

Ali G: Jezzy, iz you wearing green? I knew it - you iz defected to the Iver 'Eath posse, innit? Come on - let's stab him!

Jezzy F: No, no - wait! Me mum, yeah, she put me yellow top in the wash with me brother's blue football socks even though they ain't colourfast.

Ali G: All right. But you tell that slag, that in the ghetto, washing non-colourfast synthetics at 60 degrees could cost you your life...

I've said this before in this thread, London has a violent crime rate 3 times higher than New York...

Maybe I was just stuck with boring people. I dunno there was nothing to do all day for 3 weeks. So it left a taste in my mouth, sorry for my jab at the rockies

Have you ever been to Bradford? London has great bits and crap bits. Bradford just plain sucks. It doesn't even have a decent night club anymore.
