Halifax Donair

[bigfellow]

Where can I or can I, find a Halifax style donair in Montreal

Consider me happy! A friend is leaving Halifax tonight to drive to Calgary. She is willing to drop off some donairs for me from King of Donair!

Kojax seems to be the closest thing I know of to a Halifax donair... and a Halifax donair it is not.

I guess that I'm going to have to get friends to stop at Pizza Corner on the way through Montreal for some take out for me.

This must be like the gyro, sold in some Montreal eating establishments?

Similar too but not the same. The meat is spiced differently and the sauce is completely different somehow. I could never stomach a gyro, but occasionally crave a Halifax-style donair. And especially donair-pizza!

Unfortunately I have never found anything like the Halifax donair in Montreal since I moved here in 1992.

Growing up in Alberta meant that i also ate Halifax style donairs and donair pizza. Probably due to the large maritime population that lives there.

Unfortunately i've never seen anything like it here in Montreal either.

woah had to google that:

Can't say I've ever seen this.

I wonder if these are a Maritime Canadian/Halifax variation on Doner Kebab (Turkish version of the lebanese Shawarma and greek Gyros you'll more readily find here.

)
