"Follow the locals right to shawarma stall where you will also spot a mini-bakery where you can watch the preparation of fresh laffa bread. Their specialty is beef kebab and a special shawarma with lamb fat."

"Stop at Haj Kahil for the famously juicy lamb shawarma and a bottomless basket of laffa (a traditional Middle Eastern flatbread baked in a taboon oven)."

Tel Aviv Guide

"Haj Kahil offers three kinds of shawarma - turkey, beef and lamb - and one "special shawarma" that includes more of the lamb fat. All the shawarmas are fresh, crispy and tasty, but if your going for the classic version, try the lamb."

David Pearl

"If tomorrow was your last day in Tel Aviv before you left for good, how would you spend it? I’ll start in Jaffa (Flea Market and the Jaffa cliff), eat some shawarma at Haj Kahil."
