what's cooking, Cebu???: Everything Shawarma at The Shawarma Place!

I remember the first time I ate shawarma at The Shawarma Place along Mabolo street; I couldn't stop gushing over it. Sure, you can probably get shawarma anytime in food carts inside the mall, but hey, if you truly want to get into the experience of eating shawarma, you absolutely have to try eating one at The Shawarma Place. Loads of chopped beef and veggies tightly wrapped with pita bread oozing with garlic sauce and barbecue sauce... ooohhhh... Think nothing different? Think again. Shawarma Place serves their shawarmas thick and full, not like the skinny, half-filled ones you get for 35 pesos. Ok, so their shawarma does cost 45 pesos apiece but you do get what you pay for... that means tons of beef in your sandwich. Don't you just sometimes hate how some shawarma stalls can be too skimpy on the beef???

Oh wait. It gets even better. You absolutely have to try their Sizzling Shawarma... it's an original-- and their specialty... and it's great for those who like shawarma without the pile of veggies. It's Shawarma served sizzling-sisig style... mmm...mmm... Try it; you'll crave for it. I swear. And I like the fact that they've totally jazzed up the whole concept of shawarma as just being a sandwich. This time you get to enjoy shawarma ala pica-pica. Get some beef, pile on a quarter of a pita bread, squeeze on loads and loads of sauces (unlimited garlic and sweet bbq on the house) tuck them all in (and as best as you can! Hehe!) then eat the whole thing up! Hehe, does get your hands covered in sauces but hey, that's what makes the whole thing fun! =) And the best part? A whole plate costs only 50 pesos. YEAH!!!

Oh, and sizzling shawarma over a drinking bout with friends? Perfect. =)
