Original German Doner Off the spit

Looping animation: a doner spit turns in front of glowing burners. The camera moves in slowly until the crisp crust fills the frame and the fat runs down the sides. Below it lies the freshly carved meat in the collection tray. Then the view pulls back out to the whole spit and it all starts again.

Six hours. Nothing pre-made.

Stacked fresh every morning, layer by layer, seasoned by hand.

The fat makes the flavour.

It runs from the top down and seasons every layer beneath it.

The spec sheet // The spit

Six hours,
only then the knife.

Stacked by hand in the morning, seasoned layer by layer. The spit turns in front of the burners for six hours before anything is carved. The fat runs from the top down and seasons every layer beneath it, which is why the last slice tastes like the first.

hours on the spit

Two or three hours are enough for most. Six make the difference you can taste.

02

0Β°C

at the burners

Hot enough for the crust, without burning the outside before the inside is done.

03

0 rpm

rotation speed

Too slow and the crust burns. Too fast and the fat does not run evenly.

Pre-carved meat

We carve only when someone is at the counter. Before that it dries out.

The menu // Three ways

Three things.
All three done right.

A shop with forty dishes on the menu is good at none of them. Everything here comes off the same spit, just put together differently.

    How to order

    The day // From stacking to carving

    A day on the spit

    Stacked

    Morning Β· 06:00

    Stacked

    Fresh meat, layer by layer onto the spit. Spices and fat go between every layer, and the fat from the top seasons everything below it later.

    Crust

    First hour Β· 180 Β°C

    Crust

    The outer layer seals. Herbs start to roast, fat begins to run. From here the spit cooks in its own juices.

    Ready to carve

    Midday Β· 220 Β°C

    Ready to carve

    Six hours later the outside is dark and the inside still sits at 70 Β°C. That is when it gets carved, not a minute earlier.

    01

    The meat

    Fresh off the spit

    Stacked fresh, never pre-carved. Six hours at 200 to 220 degrees. The fat runs down and seasons every layer beneath it.

    02

    The bread

    Flatbread from the griddle

    Only heated once you order. Crisp outside, soft inside. Bread kept warm turns tough and tastes of the tray.

    03

    The sauce

    Yoghurt with garlic

    Made here, cold from the fridge. The contrast with the hot meat is half the flavour.

    04

    The acidity

    Onions with sumac

    Cut shortly before. The acidity cuts through the fat. Without it every kebab feels heavy after three bites.

    05

    The fresh bit

    Salad and tomato

    Cut in the morning, whatever is left gets binned. Tomato is cut only as we build, otherwise it waters the bread.

    06

    The finish

    Cabbage and herbs

    Red and white, both shaved here. Parsley last, so the final bite is as fresh as the first.

    The finished kebab, ingredients flying over it

    The shop

    Everything that goes in is out in the open.

    You can see the spit, the griddle and the bowls. A shop with nothing to hide puts the counter at the front, not the back.
