Trivia

[Hardcore] 'Shawarma' originated in Arabia, but fused with Indian urban youth culture, now evolving into unique street food as 'closure after night out'. Unlike authentic Middle Eastern Tahini (sesame sauce)/Hummus, Indian version maximally features applying lethal doses of 'sweetish intensely garlic-flavored mayo'.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] Tearing paper bit by bit, bite wildly as if slurping massive garlic mayo and meat juice threatening to leak from the bottom!
