HaShamen (Hebrew: השמן - lit. The Fat Guy)[3] is an Israeli restaurant chain, that sells Shawarma and other middle eastern food, at its 10 branches across Israel.[2] HaShamen opened their first restaurant in 2006, with hopes of putting an emphasis on innovation, freshness, quality and customer service.[1]
HaShamen offers both corporate owned locations and franchises. [4]
Fare
HaShamen’s menu is simplified with very few options. Shawarma is their main product with the option of turkey or lamb meat.[5] The only other options offered are salad, humus platters and falafel.[6]
Kashrut
All of the products sold at HaShamen facilities come kosher certified by the Beit Shemesh Kosher’s Rabbi Mutzafi.[4]
