Abrakebabra still do pretty decent kebab burgers. All the staff have hairy arms and moustaches too, even the women.

Thats my rule to judge how good a kebab place will be - the hairier the arms, the better the kebabs

Sure, but sometimes I like the blokes to make it.

@Nepia I had Popeyes in Singapore and it was great. The biscuit had a weird sweet glaze on top, I didn't care for it much

My first experience with Popeyes was in Singapore, and I only went in to use the wifi so I could follow the live feed of the Magpies v Otago RS match - the one that we won. I was dancing a jig while eating my chicken, gravy and biscuits.

Best Kebab in the world is Pacha's in Palmerston North. A staple through my uni days, he used to have a caravan on the square plus a restaurant on Cuba st. Heard he has retired though.

You'll have to fly through Kansai or go to a shitty mall in Hiroshima to get that horrible looking shit interesting looking meal!

We have far too much class in Tokyo for that, like Michelin starred Ramen restaurants

Second ramen restaurant in Tokyo receives Michelin star for 2017

Now there are two Michelin-starred ramen restaurants in the capital, and we lined up to try the signature dish from the latest award-winning eatery.

I'm going to be in Tokyo for my 50th - going to Joel Robuchon for my first (and probably last) 3 Michelin star meal http://www.robuchon.jp/joelrobuchon-en

That's awesome in the castle there. I'm proper jealous!

If you are looking for any suggestions (although you seem pretty set) PM me and I may be able to suggest some interesting local joints.

We are. Wife and I went to Ippudo for lunch (2 minutes away from ours). She's mad for Ramen and that was her request for Xmas lunch

I had the third one down, with the heat on 5 (you can choose 3-8) with chashuu topping. It's friggin awesome for all of 10 dollars.
