? EAT THIS TONIGHT-

Shawarma… à la Française? We thought we had seen it all, but Kazdora just hit us with a new devious — and delicious — innovation: A shawarma sandwich in brioche bread. While we are not among those who like to fix what is not broken, we do have to pause for a moment and make an exception here. The shawarma pieces are flavorful and with the right bite, and the buttery brioche may give a slight kaizer bun feel, but you can taste the haughtiness that comes with the French brioche. What was also commendable was that Kazdora respected the sacred flavors we expect from that meal, ensuring that all the shawarma essentials: Toumeya, pickles and fries were part of the sandwich. If you are a purist you can still opt for the regular Lebanese wrap. Located in Wataneya Station in New Cairo’s Tahrir Axis, the joint also has shish tawouk wraps, chicken and beef shawarma wraps — in regular pita or Iraqi samoon bread — and plates. You can always end your meal with a cool rice pudding dessert — if you have any space left in your stomach.
