Story summary

At Shish Shawarma & Grill in Sydney, a tiny shack next to a petrol station serves some of the best adana kebabs around. The chef expertly smokes and chars minced lamb seasoned with spices, then grills it over coals. Customers can order their meal as a plate with biryani rice cooked in lamb stock or wrapped in lavash bread with pickled cucumbers and vegetables. A house chilli sauce made from red and green peppers, garlic, and vinegar is highly recommended to enhance the flavor. Despite the simple takeaway setting, the food quality makes up for any lack of ambiance. This review was conducted anonymously by the Good Food Guide team in 2024.
