Geraldine, I'm glad we Brits are not the only ones to get the munchies after a night out, and end up in a kebab house! The best kebabs ever,and the best takeaways for me are the 'proper' gyros in Greece.

I once watched a program here about how to make one of those great big Schwerma things - It ain't ground meat in there that was for sure! Actually the meat itself didn't look too horrific - it was the lumps of fat that were going between all the layers that looked a bit off putting!

Yes, the kebabs here are pretty awful too (which is why I like the proper Greek ones so much), but at 2am after a skinful (hic) who cares? :lol:

My favourite take-away here in Luxor is a KFC! - 3 pieces of chicken in spicy, crunchy batter, french fries, coleslaw, a little bun and a drink - all for 23LE.
I might agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong!

When I first got here I was really pleased to see KFC - just as a treat! The first time I went in I was gutted to discover that there was no corn on the cob and no gravy! Used to love going home from uni and stopping at the KFC and picking up chips and chicken gravy and a burger. You'd think with all the corn in this country they could at least get a bit of corn on the menu?
