This is an oft visited haunt of mine: close to home, open late and houses a delicious array of meaty treats. On first impressions this looks like, and would be, a standard kebab shop if it weren't for the efficiency, friendliness, relaxed nature, and kebab related expertise of their staff. These guys work long, hard hours - I have often seen the Young Pretender preparing the shop in the late afternoon and he will still be happily dealing with a complex meat order come 3:30 am. The vast array of staff: El Capitan, Shavedsides, Perfectstubble among others all have their own niches and jobs, but the Young Pretender will take the money, fire up the grill, shave the elephant leg, wrap up the chips, cook some onion rings all in the blink of an eye, while ensuring all my salad and sauce needs are taken care of. The first entrant to the kebablog hall of fame for sure.
There have been many memorable visits to this shop, a full review will come soon. I had had many doners and chicken kebabs from the Arches but I feel it is time to try one of their range of shish kebabs or similar, and really do their menu justice. Watch this space.
