Kepap Haus in Birgden (for great doerners/gyros)

Most of you know about this place already, but it’s so good, it’s still worth a mention for those who don’t.

Kebap Haus
Bahnhofstrasse 70
Birgden
T: 02454-969501 (you can call ahead for pick-up)
O: M-Sat 1100-2300; Sun and holiday 1100-2300

Food: Pizzas, Schnitzel, Salads, Grilled items, and Döners. We go for the döners, but I like my homemade sauce better, so we always make that for our döners (plain yogurt, chopped cucumber, fresh chopped mint – all mixed together).

Hints: If you want the traditional gyro style sandwich with the thick bread and all the stuff on it, order the döner kebap – it’s the first one on the menu inside, the cheapest one with a small sandwich for only $3.50, and really filling. The döner dürüm is served more like a wrap in a thin tortilla like “bread” and those are really good too – and huge. Most people would be filled up on just half of one. If you order the döner teller, you won’t get any bread – just all the stuff that would normally come on the bread plus your choice of rice or french fries.

Again… portions are BIG. You won’t starve here.

Zweiländer-Eck – Turkish Restaurant in Gangelt

Reader Recommendation…

Restaurant Zweiländer-Eck

“I think our new favourite is 2Landereck in Gangelt. It is right along the main road across from El Genio’s and just up from the Argentinian Steakhouse. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but the food is too die for. They have Turkish food and we have not had a bad dish yet. If you like lamb, they have some of the best lamb dishes I have ever had. There are a few servers that speak English and they have an English menu if you ask for it. If you are going on a weekend I recommend a reservation as it is always packed when we go.”
