shawarma stand

Rotating spit vendor

A shawarma stand is a food vendor—typically a small kiosk, cart, or counter—serving shawarma, the Middle Eastern dish of spiced meat roasted on a vertical spit and sliced into pita or flatbread.

Shawarma stands are common street food fixtures in cities with Middle Eastern populations and increasingly elsewhere: We grabbed lamb wraps from the shawarma stand on the corner.
