Donair's

[technopop]

donair = beef.
schawarma = chicken

no?

Isn't a donair slices of ground up meat while a shawarma is actual hunks of meat?

Halifax Donair in Milton has the best donair I've had outside Halifax, bar none. Don't get me wrong, I love shawarmas too, but sometimes you just get a craving for a donair!

Halifax Donair in Milton is great - better yet, they just opened a second location in Burlington!

Check them out, you'll be glad you did.

Omg. I wish we had one of these here in Vancouver. We don't have any real Halifax style donairs. All the places that advertise this don't have the same meat or sauce. Closest I've had on the West coast is at the "Donair Shop" in Victoria and donair poutine at La Belle Patate in Vancouver. I make my own using this recipe but still nothing comes close to ones back home in Nova Scotia.

Yep, its by far the best you'll find here. The owner's father used to have his Donair place out east called Fairview Pizza. That name would have just sounded like an ordinary pizza place, so he called it Halifax Donair.

Its one of the few places that is worth driving for. Also, they'd rather you have more meat, than bread. Its delicious.

Thats funny, looking at my response to this thread 6 years ago I was down on the donairs

Now that I've had a couple from Halifax Donair in Milton (admittedly my only donair experience) I can say I was way wrong, they are damn delicious (although greasy as hell). What's with no lettuce as a topping though? I don't like the raw tomatoes and onions on my sandwich so I just ask for it plain

Sammy's Donair on Lakeshore in Burlington.... the BEST!

I love Halifax Donair. Good to know there's a Burlington location. Milton is psychologically far because you have to drive through farmland to get there from Oakville.

Many years ago I too discovered Donairs while in Halifax.

Since that time I have tried them in many great Canadian cities. In my experience, I've NEVER had one like the one I had at a shop in Dartmouth called "Pizza Time".

Having had lots of really bad ones, I'll now only have one if I'm in Dartmouth.

I can change your mind with a visit to " Roberts Pizza " on Windmill Road in Dartmouth . Only order the small as they are as big as footballs . I go there every time i am in the Halifax area !


I can make my own meat and donair sauce but it`s never quite the same .

When in Halifax, I always make a trip to King of Donair at the Pizza Corners on Grafton and Blowers.

I recommend Kit Kat and Randy's as well.

So many options there, and so few here

Thats the best part! Enjoy the country while its still there
