Yes, it's true. The only reason I want to try shawarma is because of the Avengers movie. I really wish I could go all hipster and say "I was eating shawarma before Iron Man made it cool," but I can't. I will say though that, being from Chicago, I have been a long-time fan of the gyro, and I hear there's some similarities.
Now, to the heart of the matter: can anyone point me towards a shawarma joint anywhere in central Illinois, or do I need to drive back to Chicago to try it?
In the meantime, I'm heading out to grab a gyro (and for the record, it's pronounced "YEE-roh").
Happy weekend, everyone.
