The meat no one can beat at Doner Deli

We have tried the Arabic shawarma, the Greek gyros and the Turkish doner. While all these dishes originate from the Mediterranean – Middle Eastern region and are quite similar in terms of cooking style and presentation, with few differences that tell them apart, the origin of the real Doner is quite a revelation. The Doner is German. It originates from this beautiful European country where this dish is one the street favorites. We got to try this German classic at Doner Deli in Al Barari, which is one their four outlets, others being in Jumeirah, Barsha and Dubai Marina.

With an extensive variety of options ranging across sandwiches, wraps, sliders, salads and specials, you are sure to leave this restaurant with your tummy satisfied. Have you already started imagining what the food looks like? Well, read on to find out!

Doner sandwiches

When at Doner Deli, these classic Pita sandwiches are a must.
Filled with equal portions of roasted chicken/veal and fresh vegetables, these classic Doner sandwiches are quite a filler.
You got to open your mouth big for every bite, because every bite will get you lots of flavor and deliciousness.

The most important part of any doner sandwich is the manner in which the meat is sliced, and Doner Deli ace at it. These thin flakes of textured chicken and veal are roasted to a tender perfection. Plus they are so light, you will leave with no guilt at all. Yes, the sandwiches fill you up, but that’s all thanks to the healthy mix of fresh veggies. And don’t miss the garlic mayo and yogurt sauces that top it off with creamy goodness.

Durum

After the classic Doner sandwich packed in a pita, the next German favorite is Durum. Featuring the same veal and chicken doner slices with all those fresh veggies, this one is wrapped in a flatbread.

Honestly, I found this one slightly easier to eat as compared to the previous pita, but the flavors of the pita were somehow better than this one.

Doner Salad

What’s better than a doner salad? I’ll tell you – this Pomegranate Doner Salad from Doner Deli.

Coupled with a tangy pomegranate vinaigrette and topped with lovely pomegranate seeds this salad features a base of fresh vegetables and perfectly spiced veal meat.
Adding just the right amount of tanginess and crunch to the otherwise savory meat, the pomegranate really stands out as a star in this creation.

Desserts

Like everywhere else, desserts at Doner Deli are a must. While there’s nothing very German about them, what really takes the cake is the fact that they are so scrumptious.

Despite being completely stuffed with all that Doner, we couldn’t help but try two of their bestselling desserts.

Classics on almost every dessert chart, the chocolate brownies are indulgent enough to make you wish you had skipped the starters and mains altogether. The New York styled cheesecake is yet another classic that brings about an intensified feeling of creaminess in every bite.

Don’t go to Doner Deli for these desserts, but don’t leave without them either.
