I decided that I should finally give the kebab a try. So, since I’m not a big fan of meat (State-side or in France) I ordered falafel and fries. (Pretty much everything at the kebab comes with fries.) The falafel came in yummy bread with lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and some mayo. It was pretty good- greasy, but good. I don’t forsee myself eating many meals from the various kebabs here but who knows—a good amount of kebabs are open on Sundays so maybe it will be the anti-Chick-fil-A (had to put a link for my New Englanders) for me. (Since everyone always wants Chic-fil-A on Sundays because you know they are closed.) The kebab could be the anti-Chic-fil-A because I know it is one of my few options if I want to buy food out on Sundays since everything else in France is closed.
I should make one note: kebabs here definitely have some authenticity remaining but they have become a bit commercialized (like adding fries) to accommodate to their French location. It's a bit similar to Chinese food in the States, except maybe not as changed as that!
And yes, I am aware of the fact that kebab was used almost every other word in this post. Think of it as a writing technique to create a feeling of what it is like in Dijon :)
Word of the Post: un resto-rapide -- fast food
