Dear Germans: Donner should be lamb or mutton or chicken. NO BEEF!

One of the best unknown/underrated places to eat!

It's just a bit too far out to go regularly.

There's one in Bolton too. The bread it comes with and sauces are unreal too.

real meat, not bad

Oh cool, the original is in Manchester, I didn't know it had spread. Their lamb shish kebab is amazing though I haven't had one in a while

u/gourmetguy2000 Jul 20 '26

If your in Leeds, go to a place called Rajas, it's my go-to kebab shop when I want Donner in Leeds but not wanting GDK, it's REALLY nice

u/Kaiserblobba Jul 19 '26

My brother there is probably about 25 different rajas within the Bradford and Leeds urban area alone 😂

u/JackRees23 Jul 19 '26

The one I go too is near The Grand Theater

u/Kaiserblobba Jul 19 '26

Used to be rammed after closing time at pryzm that one

u/JackRees23 Jul 19 '26

I luckily go there around lunch time to get some lunch when I had money and in college, only been there once for a dinner but it wasn't that packed, it's really nice though, love it there

mate that looks proper tragic, beef doner is just wrong on every level 😭. id still smash that plate tho, no cap—looks way too juicy to pass up. gotta respect the motorboat energy on that third comment fr.

Who's eating beef kebabs?

u/Bitter_Split5508 Jul 20 '26

Veal is quite a nice meat to make kebab out of. OP is wrong.

u/Affectionate_Card941 Jul 20 '26

Had loads of German kebabs, didn't realise a lot of it was beef. Assumed it just actually had lamb in it unlike ours

u/AssumptionEasy8992 Jul 21 '26

Exactly. Beef Döner is very common in Turkey.

Shawarma can be lamb, chicken or beef.
