Does anybody know the history behind Arzis/Albasha/Serops? Its damn near impossible to find Chicken Schwerma outside the stick. At least the way the restaurants I mentioned prepare it.

Mona's in New Orleans has it and better than any of those places in BR, so...


Also NOLA > BR


ETA: Also, Lebanon on St Charles and Byblos. Again, all better than the BR versions.

Life is pretty short. You should really try to spend some time outside Louisiana.

Albasha is in Metairie now. NOLA has Monas. There's Byblo's in Metairie also. Where are you talking about?

Maybe you should try looking for chicken shawarma instead.

Sorry...outside of Louisiana. From Florida, can't find it. Live in Charlotte now, can't find it. Been to many other cities and can't find it. Been a member for about 6 years, forgot password, so signed up again.

Well, I take back my harshness. There's a place right up the street from me here that has pretty good shawarma.

Make your way to this area

Lived off Albasha on Corporate Blvd while in college. Fantastic! Have been searching for years for something similar and can't find it anywhere.

I would agree it's hard to find outside of the state. In lived in Birmingham, Georgia, and North Carolina and I can't find any that is even decent. Somehow BR has 3-4 great chains. Either that or the chicken outside of BR is legit In which case I don't like the legit kind. I enjoy the BR kind.
