[edit] Comments

[edit] Name

Isn't "kebab" the most common English spelling, not "kebap"? At least the main page about kebab is spelled with a "b". Lumpio- 15:19, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I guess we're adhering to Turkish spelling on this one. After all, it's a Turkish product..SoothingR 15:26, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I don't like the picture in this page. Can someone put a better picture of Iskender Kebap. Bugur 06:44, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ground meat

It says in the article that Iskender is made from ground meat but as far as I know, the meat grinders (mincing machines) were invented around the time the Iskender restaurant was established. The machines can't have been very popular in Turkey back then. Sorry that I can't find any reference here. 80.221.5.74 09:25, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually the best / real Döner is prepared from pieces of meat stacked together, not from ground meat. The best restaurants only use real Döner. The ground meat is used by mass produced packaged Döner. --Gokhan 14:42, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
