Shawerma Review: Burgan at 2:48AM [The B-Sides] — Sun, 10 Sep 2006 08:55:54 +0000

[...] After trying Al-Ghader and Badar Al Badoor’s shawerma, Burgan was a disappointment. First the place seems to be the least clean out of the three. The interior was very small and even though it wasn’t that packed I still found it difficult to get to the cashier who was tucked away in a corner behind a Pepsi fridge. The employees didn’t seem the cleanest or the most organized compared to Al-Ghader and Bader Al Badoor. There was a brief argument that broke out with the shawerma guy and one of the employees, the employee originally told the shawerma guy 2 shawermas but then gave him a paper saying 6 shawermas because the customer had requested more. The shawerma guy didn’t read the paper and just went and did 2 shawermas. So they were arguing for like 5 minutes on whose fault it was while the customer was outside waiting in his car for his order. [...]

I went to the Qurtubi highschool located in the same block as AL-Ghadeer. This post reminded me of all my highschool memories when a group of us would sneak past the doorman between classes to grab a quick snack from over there. I don’t recall ever eating there again since studying abroad, so my dinner today will be an assortment of sandwiches from Ghadeer.

Try the shawerma in “Cafeteria al-Tha7ya,” It’s a couple of stores down the road from Mc Donalds (Tha7yat 3abdulla al-Salem).

Ay Kay, i never said the shawerma was bad, i said its like Badar Al Badoor except Badar Al Badoor isn’t as stingy.

Hi, I suggest you should use wikimapia.org where you can really mark places easily instead of google maps which only shows the view.
Try it. Its cool

I have to disagree with you on your rating. The shawerma aint all that bad. you knwo that you can customize your sandwichs at these places right? Just go to the shawerma dude, give him a wink and be like “hot ba’ad” or “a bit more”. now thier Kabab’s are phenomenal… al ghadeer has got to be my fav. place in kuwait, i’v been eating there since i was 8!! They also have another branch in bnaid al gar, next to berlitz.

I tried the Kabaab sandwich and after one bite didnt finish the sandwich. i didnt like it at all but i didnt mention it in the review because its a shawerma review not restaurant review..

Forget about the shawarma..

If you are in Al Ghader order the Kebab sandwich as Nonawz said. Or better.. order the round potatoes with Cauliflowers and lebnah:

You’ll get better service in Al Ghader if you spoke Persian :p

eddy: it was packed and not as organized as badar al badoor. but k.thekuwaiti told me he had never seen it that packed before so this is why i didnt mention anything about it.

cactus, yes if u keep going straight and dont take the 6th right you will end up with BSK on your left
