Lebanon's shawarma, represented by Joseph Restaurant - sin el fil, won "the World's Tastiest Sandwich award" 2015, competing against other candidates operating in cities like Edinburgh, Caracas and New York. In an exclusive event, taking place in London, FoodieHub hosts best food awards in different categories, with 4,000 nominees across 150 cities.
Our shawarma is now a world acclaimed sandwich.
FoodieHub adopts a methodology used by other global food awards whereby local experts nominate items and a central team tries the items on a rotating basis. NoGarlicNoOnions represented Lebanon, therefore nominating Lebanon's popular sandwich to take part in this international award.
Foodiehub shared a video of Joseph's restaurant which has been serving chicken and beef shawarma for over 20 years.
Foodiehub described the shawarma to be: "Thin and fresh bread, two layers of it, wrapped around a generous portion of meat of chicken alongside accompaniments; premium quality, without any sauces or sophistication. Pure beef, premium chicken, juicy, tender with lettuce, pickles and fries for the white meat and parsley and tartar for the brown."
