The real thing is what they call "yaprak doner" in Turkey,which is made of layers of meat,NOT minced meat..
Its exceptionally delicious when cooked horizontally on charcoal..
With doner made from minced meat,one does not know what's in it.(usually not meat)
True but not all "yaprak doners" taste same. In that huge Istanbul, i ate doner in many restaurants or kebab houses but none was as delicious as the one i ate from a bufet near Besiktash ship dock.(Anatolian side)
