He had this Cypriot speciality called a Sheftali kebab that I munched every night. Large Sheftali and chips, no salad, ?2.50. It was '90-'91. They were like short, fat, herby lamb sausages covered in caul. Took 15 mins to cook and we played on his 30p 6' pool table while we waited. Up to five games in 15 mins.
I have looked for them ever since - by far the best kebab I've ever had. But only found it once, in Streatham, and it was nothing like Mr Panky Prios.
Has anyone ever had a Sheftali/Sheftalia kebab? Does anyone know where I could get one? I'd love to munch one now. They're lush.
