In the UK, it’s kind of a tradition to meet your mates in the pub, sink lots of beers and then stagger home via the kebab shop for a ‘Large Donner with Chilli Sauce’ or some such delight. For true authenticity, this should be eaten while walking home, wandering two steps forward, one step backwards (or at least sideways until you can project yourself back off the wall), with your head firmly buried inside the wrapping paper, and face sunk into the kebab.
This being Singapore, things are slightly more sophisticated, so we met up with some friends in the pub, sank a few beers and then went and made ourselves comfy in the seats outside bq bar on Boat Quay, where we could enjoy our Dharma’s Kebabs with a view of the river and a couple more beers to accompany them.
I opted for their Chicken Kebab (not the chicken tikka one which I’ve tasted before and didn't really enjoy, the tikka flavouring was just too strong). Now these couldn't really compare with our old haunt in Edinburgh, Samsun's Kebab Shop, but they were pretty good, and they certainly got wolfed down quickly at our table… although the wrapping paper wasn’t quite big enough to bury your head in…
