Inquiring minds want to know:
Can you ever go back to McTenders after having tasted the dark side that is Chicken Shish Tawook?

I am saddened a person could go their entire life having not experienced gourmet lebanese.
I was lucky, only having to wait until my early 30s.

What say you class?

Could you go back? Or would you wistfully long for that epic kabob?

Obviously this question is for Omnivores~~~

Never had chicken shish tawook.

not even close to a Lebanese restaurant here. THe way you talk about it sounds like the first time someone does cocaine. Everything after that is an impossible attempt to recreate that first rush

LOL that's the beauty of this Kabob chicken... none of that. You'll never be the same afterward. mwaahahahahaa
😉 No really. You won't.
Except for those who don't like garlic.

I think the secret ingredient must be DOPAMINE!

back? as if i eat junk food? when i visit the u.k. i may indulge in a kabob on the street. i haven't been to the u.k. for ages. meanwhile, i do not eat at mcdonald's. ever. ever.

g

i will only eat mcdonald's under extreme duress, like on the road or if I'm so wrecked would eat cardboard. I can't remember the last time we had it...
I've a 'friend" who eats that shit all the time though, and he just experienced the tawook, so he's ruined for those goddamned tenders and I'm all over here LMAO. He does well, there's no excuse to be eating that crap!

@Qualia i am an omnivore but i have a couple policies regarding food. i only eat real food. i do not eat things that are not real food, or celery, or cilantro, or anything with which an animal thinks or makes love. everything else is fair game.

g

@genessa ? No celery? 😮 Why?
Celery is an anti inflammatory and super good for you, even cooked. hmmm

@Qualia because i do not like the flavor or texture. i have nothing against it otherwise.

g

@genessa understandable.
I've got the cilantro "soap taste" gene myself...

@Qualia it's odd that the two real foods i don't like seem related, similar flavors (to me) and similar names. i will actually eat them but i won't enjoy them.

I'm struggling to understand what the fuck you're talking about, not heard of any of it, but as I'm fairly certain I've not tried anything in your piece I'm probably not of much use 🙂

Ya'll don't have McDonald's or Lebanese restaurants in the UK eh? You're missing out on the latter when well done. I'm kinda ruined on this one place in particular. Their chicken kabobs...are a culinary orgasm of the mouth.

@Qualia OK, cool. Yes we have McDs, my daughter occasionally drags me in, solely for the purpose of waving my plastic at the machine but not sure what a McTender is but to be honest probably everything is better than food from McDonalds.
We do have Lebanese restaurants in England but I'm not aware of one on the Isle of Wight (Where I live) but I shall keep the notion of an oral orgasm in the back of my mind for future reference if I ever get the chance 🙂

@ipdg77 Yes! You must try Chicken shish tawook sometime, although of course they all vary.

I live near Dearborn Michigan, highest population from the middle east in the US. Being from Texas I'd never had anything like good ME food.
There was this restaurant called "La Shish" here that was unparalleled in their dishes despite the preponderance of ME fare.
The owner made the horrid mistake of throwing away a multi million dollar restaurant chain for not paying taxes...so the whole place shut down. ..., for years.
I could not think of this dish without getting wistfully sad & salivary pains!

FF some years later the former cooks from that restaurant opened a place 5 minutes from me & they've got the old formula down to a T...
I really could eat this stuff everyday to foundering.

I have never tried them..now I Have too..

I ruined someone on shish tawook recently...now they tryna' go back and eat mctenders. LMFAO ???

@Qualia bleeeeck...????

@Charlene "The thrill is gone" they said... well DUHR. ?
