Tawakal – Doner Kebab

Arrived in the city late night and after checking into our Airbnb, we decided to find a place that was open for some good grub. It was close to 11pm and a lot of places were closed or too expensive but luckily we were able to fnd this place tucked in a side street from the main road.
They have a pretty big menu with a variety of plates and sandwiches to choose from. Because we hadn’t eaten in almost 12 hours, the beau and I were starving. I had the #35, Plato doner kebab especial tawakal for € 7,00 and he had #34, Plato doner kebab con huevo for € 6,50. My plate comes with bread (pita), salad, chicken (or beef) kebab, 1 falafel, fries, rice and a big square piece of cheese (not sure what kind it was but very similar to goat cheese). His plate came with bread (pita), salad, beef kebab (or chicken), rice (or fries) and two Sunnyside up eggs. They also drizzle some of their white and red sweet sauce like most doner dishes.
Both of our giant plates filled with food were fantastic! I didn’t think we were going to be able to finish it all but we literally cleaned our plates! The man working behind the counter spoke enough English to help us when ordering and was a pleasant man. The food is deliciois, the price is just right and the portions are big! We couldn’t have asked for a better late night meal in Madrid!

Creo que el peor durum que he probado, con diferencia.
Llegue al local, no había mucha gente, la cocina no estaba a la vista.
Pedí dos menús para llevar, uno de ellos sin cebolla.
Llego a casa con ganas de hecharle un buen mordisco a mi durum y qué me encuentro? Cebollas, y no una o dos. Ahí había media cebolla mínimo. Y mira que se lo repetí. Pues nada se me quitaron las ganas de comer. Es imposible comer con gusto cuando te han engañado!
Qué pasa si hubiera sido alérgica!
Bueno, eso por una parte; yo intenté comerme aunque sea sólo la carne, pero no tenía ni sabor, si por saber, ni la salsa blanca sabía a lo que tenía que saber.
Las patatas extra finas recalentadas y blandas.
En fin, menudo disgusto… No fue mi día.

Fantastic dishes! I’ve eaten a lot of Turkish food in a lot of different places and I can safely say Tawakal makes their dishes as well as they can get. The Lamachuns and Doner kebabs are absolutely splendid. The owners are super chill too and very chatty. I recommend dropping by here, grabbing a sandwich, a beer and just enjoying some fresh, quality food and conversation.
I definitely plan on being a regular client :)
