Best chicken shawarma EVER! Hands down, sooo good! The men working the truck are phenomenal! Chicken Shawarma Platter (with the salad) and the Chicken Shawarma Wrap are to die for! I usually see them on Fridays outside Toy'sRUs... not today though... So sad and hungry... they deviated from their original routine... Still 5 stars and best place ever though. Hopefully they will be back in their West end spot this coming week.
