FAQ

Our chicken comes from two leading New Zealand suppliers: Brink’s and Tegel. Both of these suppliers are certified halal, and their chickens are hormone-free. We create our chicken kebab towers using only the breast and thigh meat, which are the most tender and juicy parts of the bird. Our chicken is 100% natural — it is never processed or pre-cooked. The chicken is marinated in our family recipe and then carefully assembled, piece by piece, into the shape of a ‘tower’ by our trained chef. The tower is cooked, and each cooked layer is thinly sliced and placed into a bain-marie. This ensures the meat is kept at a safe temperature for consumption. Chicken is always cooked close to our busiest hours to deliver you the freshest and most delicious meals possible.

Our lamb is 100% pure and sourced from Affco, one of New Zealand’s leading meat suppliers. Creating a kebab tower requires skill and precision, and our trained chefs prepare ours fresh every day. We use premium lamb cuts, mince them, and combine the meat with our authentic spice blend. The mince is carefully assembled into layers, forming a ‘tower’, which is then cooked slowly from a raw state. Once each layer is cooked, the lamb is thinly sliced and placed into a bain-marie, where it is kept at a safe temperature for serving throughout the day. Our lamb kebab towers are cooked fresh daily to give you the best flavor and quality.

We use a thin, authentic style of pita bread sourced from the local Lebanese bakery Pita House. This traditional bread has been crafted for thousands of years and perfectly complements the fresh ingredients in our kebabs.

Our falafels are made with chickpeas, parsley, and a special spice mix — that’s it! Simple, fresh, and delicious.
