Food Review - Shawurger

I love food experiments because they normally combine a few awesome dishes to make something new. Some times these experiments become things that are far from edible but sometimes the ingredients just fall in place to create a delectable balance of flavours. I tasted such an experiment last week at JF (formerly known as Just falafel) Street food called the Shawurger.

Sweet Potato Fries

As the name suggests it a combination of a shawarma and a burger. Now this particular creation is more than just chicken shawarma pieces filled between a burger bun. According to Chef Gerard of JF Street Food, the bun used for the Shawurger is made using a of potatoes and is imported from the USA since nobody in the UAE could manufacturer them. Even though I try to support local products as much as possible for obvious environment reasons, I did love the taste of these buns which were soo soft. Tender chicken combined with lettuce, tomatoes, onion, pickels, French fries and drizzled with a garlic mayo sauce make the Shawurger one juicy treat. Available only for a limited time the chicken Shawurger is a must try!

P.S. I hope they start baking those buns in the UAE soon, which will make the Shawurger much more environment friendly !
