This is how we explain storm watches v. storm warnings, for reference:
Edit: Second choice would be a Killaloe Sunrise and an Old Style Pilsner. Both are ok, on the simpler side, and people often loudly argue that the fancier alternatives with more toppings and complexity are better.
Hol up. I’m in Nova Scotia / Halifax and our thing is the Donair apparently. How many Canadian cities food claim is shaved meat wrapped in a wrap type thing?
The differences are subtle, but important:
-Donair sauce is sickly sweet (imo, I hate donair sauce) and made with condensed milk.
-The spices used on the meat are different.
It’s a good question, though - I’ve always associated donair with Halifax, and shawarma with Ottawa (it’s more a ubiquity thing than anything else). Does any Canadian city lay claim to the gyro?
Shawarma and a Vodkow martini.

(I’m sorry Halifax, I also think the sauce is gross 😤)
Is that the same thing as the German/Turkish Döner?
Similar, but with differences (slightly different non-meat additions, often with a yogurt sauce rather than the condensed milk donair sauce).
Basically a Canadian variant of the döner kebab. The wiki entry has some useful background: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donair
