Today I tried Shawarma for the first time (2022.10.15)

Have you ever heard about Shawarma? Do not worry. Me neither so far. Today I walked in Szolnok, Hungary, and I noticed Hayla Shawarma, which is a Turkish restaurant.

I decided to try it. There were a little and a big Shawarma dish. I decided to order the little for the first time, because I did not know what it is like. I did not know anything about it. It was 1500 Hungarian Forint (HUF) (currently $3.49 USD) ($1 USD is curretly 430.37 HUF).

There were desks outside, and I sat down to eat there.

I opened the package, and it was a very pleasant surprise. It looked and tasted very similar to the Greek Gyros. Maybe this food is more spicy than the Gyros. At least this is how it felt for the first time. I like it very much.

Later, after I arrived home, I looked it up, and I realized that the Shawarma is popular street food in the middle east, originated from the Ottoman Empire.

I really enjoyed it very much. Especially its spicyness. Probably I will eat it in the future too.

Today we had a pleasant autumn/fall weather, so it was good to sit down outside. The temperature was around 21 °C in the afternoon. Currently (in the evening) (at 18:00 CEST) it is 18 °C, which is still pleasant. There are many fallen leaves in the city. Much more than what I saw the last time (a few days ago).

The sky was mostly cloudy in the afternoon, but there was no rain today.

I took these photos with my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy A12). I have not edited these photos.

Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
