Kebab

Taking over a space that was most recently Turkish restaurant The Counter, a new Berlin-inspired kebab restaurant is opening in Notting Hill (and no it's not another outpost of German Doner Kebab).

Kiez Kebab is taking the space and reinventing it with an awful lot of stainless steel, so it'll look quite unlike a traditional kebab shop. The menu here will focus on just three kebabs, served in pide - a choice of veal, chicken or a vegan option (it's still TBC on what the latter involves). Little else is known about the menu just yet, other than the base of the kebabs is "paired

Is a massive kebab house the one thing that Oxford Street really needed? Kebhouze seems to think so. 

They're a big kebab chain restaurant mainly with outposts in Italy, including Rome and Milan, but also in Ibiza. Here in London, they're taking a big corner side on Oxford Street, just a few doors down from Marks and Spencer, taking over what used to be a souvenir and vape shop

London does love a special croissant. We've recently had cubed croissants from Le Deli Robuchon and katsu chicken croissants from Hiden and now, here comes the kebab croissant.

It's a team-up between the ever-popular Chestnut Bakery and the folks behind Le Bab. Inside the Chestnut Bakery croissant, you'll

We've talked before about how more restaurants that have made their name outside of town are opening in the capital - Six by Nico and Mowgli among others. Now here comes another, Doner Shack. They've opened in Leeds, Leicester, Glasgow and Edinburgh and next, it's the turn of Baker Street. 

They seem to share some similarities

While they wait to open their next restaurant at Battersea Power Station, Le Bab are joining the traders at Old Spitalfields market in the meantime. The latest opening from the kebab slinger sees them take over the old Bvrger stall inside the market where they'll be serving up a short menu of three of their kebabs - the chicken shish (pictured) along with a pork ribeye kebab and roast aubergine kebab.

In addition, you'll

Recently opened in Camden, there's a brand new Shawarma shop called Hala Wala that sounds like a promising place to pop in and try. 

Their shawarma is marinated for 24 hours in their own blend of spices and comes in chicken, chicken sojok (spicy chicken), lamb and mixed, of course. Once it's

Le Bab have become big hitters in London's kebab scene in the past few years - as well as launching the odd innovative concept like their Kebab Queen restaurant. Now they're getting ready to launch their fourth restaurant, this time in Brixton Village (where Ms Cupcake used to be). 

The new opening, their first in south London, is a small affair, with room for just 20 people. Before you get to

Le Bab are opening a new restaurant in Shoreditch - but this time they're going for a pint-sized classic kebab shop vibe. It'll be open late-night too - if you fancy a kebab at 5am!

You know things are getting back to a kind of normal when special collaborations appear in restaurants again - and this one should make a trip to Soho or Covent Garden well worth it.

This new creation is from grime artist Big Zuu, who is also a self-taught chef and made his culinary name with a show on Dave, Big Zuu’s Big Eats, where he heads all over the country cooking for comedians. He filmed one of the

If you've ever been stuck wondering whether you fancied a pizza or a kebab more - then the answer is simple. You need Yard Sale's latest collaboration which allows you to have both at the same time! 

The pizza group have teamed up with Dalston institution Mangal II for The Mangoal II. As the name suggests, the collaboration was going to be to celebrate Euro 2020 - but now it's celebrating the return of the Premier League instead.

Londoners love their kebabs. And the rise of more modern kebab offerings in London continues to grow with the arrival of BABBER in Peckham this month.

Run by head chef Joseph Ryan who started at Hoi Polloi and Salon in Brixton Village before running the kitchen at nearby Frank’s Bar, it's going to take the food you're perhaps more likely to eat after drinking and put it squarely back in the pub.

Maison Bab has created a hidden restaurant in its basement behind a fake kebab shop in its basement. Where everything's served on the counter. It's quite special, so we went down for a look. 

The British Kebab Awards were held at the Park Plaza Westminster last night and London did pretty well out of it.

Four of our restaurants picked up gongs on the night. Testiin Stoke Newington won for best North/West London kebab. Lara Grill in Dagenham won the section for South/East
