there's a place down the road from school that stays open until 2 am every night called Tasty Kebab. granted, it's not the nicest quality food you can get, but after a night out or if you're up studying, it's not a bad place to go.
i've eaten from there at least 4-5 times now; i swear the owners probably know me :| i think there's only been a week that i haven't shown up asking for chips (£1.20)!
the first time i ordered them, i got ketchup and no vinegar because i was staunchly standing my ground against the whole "i-put-malt-vinegar-on-everything-i-eat" British ordeal. they give you a choice of sauces as well, and i've always ordered the garlic sauce, which is essentially garlic flavored mayo & a tad of ranch, i believe.
the chips are really, really good. i'm not gonna lie - i think i probably have a few arteries blocked already, but they're that good. it must be how they fry it or something..much much better than normal pub chips (in my opinion). probably because it's greasier. haha.
i've also ordered the falafel and chips (£3.00) in order to watch the USC game. i know, it's weird, but they don't serve nachos anywhere near here, and i don't trust getting a hotdog at any of these places..
they come with a piece of pita bread, fresh off the grill (: and yes, that's garlic sauce again...and vinegar! i've completely converted and can't eat chips w/o it anymore. here's a nice look at the crispy falafels:
yumm. these falafels were definitely satisfying, even if i'm not the world's biggest falafel fan. i think it's because i watched an episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S where rachel's sister thought ross was the falafel guy..regardless, i got a huge craving for them and headed to Tasty Kebab. didn't fail to impress (:
i haven't actually tried any of their meat products yet because i'm slightly worried about them .. they're encased in a large refrigerated glass, but it looks exactly the same each time i walk in, so i'm not sure how long they stay in there :| the rotating piece of lamb on a spit also looks slightly dodgy (sorry, TK!) i think i'll be sticking with the chips for now. at £1.20, it's a freaking good deal. they give you a lot, and it's definitely enough to share.
