Luckily for me the BEST KEBAB SHOP IN THE WORLD is located directly outside of the station. Seriously, the chicken and lamb shish are so flavorful and succulent that just writing about them makes my mouth water. The portions are more than generous, and the staff is so friendly, even when the place is packed with drunkards at 1 am. The pitta isn't the best, but that's probably a good thing... if I couldn't find a single flaw here, I'd eat their kebabs every day of the week!

I'm not a massive kebab eater. I can't help but associate them with rubbery offerings inhaled as a…read morestudent under an alcoholic haze, bringing with them that inevitable feeling of guilt and regret the following morning. My dad indulges himself every now and then - which, considering his penchant for 50p tea in polystyrene cups from a greasy spoon, is in itself a bad sign - and my mum's words of warning still ring in my ears that every revolving doner has been there for years, with nameless meat glued to the outside of the ancient cores. So I tend to stay away. But on Sunday night, not only sober (well, one Crabbies down) but at the comparatively early hour of 11pm, I found myself in a kebab shop. I'd been dragged there by my friend who was significantly more inebriated than me but had been extolling the virtues of Ali Baba throughout the pub quiz at the Wheatsheaf. The lamb kebab, she promised, was the best she'd had in south-west London. Her words were so strong that I was nearly tempted over to the dark side, but having eaten four sausages at lunch in an effort to stave off my impending hangover, the idea of more meat nearly made me sick on their nice clean floor. So I opted instead for a halloumi and vegetable wrap, which turned out to be the best decision ever, because they grilled it, filled the wrap with copious amounts of salad, and were super generous with the cheese. Apparently a combination of garlic and sweet chilli sauces is not authentic but I do I look like I care?! The guys behind the counter were all cheerful and friendly, bantering away without a hint of sleaze, although that may have been because we were with my friend's 6-foot-something South African boyfriend. I waited until I was on the tube to chow down on my prize. Dear god, it was good. The first three quarters, anyway. Unfortunately it was so packed full of stuff (and rather poorly wrapped) that it all fell apart at the end, which peed me right off. Understatement of the year. When a sandwich of any description collapses before its rightful conclusion, it drives me round the bend. It makes me want to swear, scream, and hurl the remainder at the wall. I know this is unhealthy and the manifestation of a deep psychological issue, but there you are. I'm damaged, but at least I'm honest. Luckily the fact that I was underground and in the presence of children saved me from turning into the Incredible Hulk but I had to bury the anger and that was even worse. Ali Baba, you've put me back a good few years and that's just upsetting. Any good therapist will warn you. Don't repress those wrappy emotions.

The restaurant was clean inside, and they do have indoor seating, which made it easy to sit down and enjoy the meal. The food was actually pretty good. I got the lamb with herbs, I think it was called Shish, and I really enjoyed it. The meat wasn't dry, and they definitely didn't skimp on the veggies. The cooks were also really nice, which made the experience even better. Overall, this is a great spot if you're looking for something simple, tasty, and a little more balanced for lunch.

Sometimes it is overly sweet but not here at Skewers. We will happily go back for another lunch if our time permits during our stay. Excellent meal!

But easy access doesn't make something inherently good (as Paris Hilton demonstrates). Really cheap breakfasts on the other hand, do. Having stumbled here on a handful of Saturday/Sunday mornings, I am yet to be remotely disappointed. Perhaps the best full English available in Clapham, this place is a bit of a secret, not just because of the name but also its position off the High Street. Worth a detour if you have a hangover. Probably best to avoid in the evening though, when the 'Kebab' part undoubtedly wins over the 'cafe' part. I recommend a Set 2 breakfast with added mushrooms and cup of builders tea.

I've seen this chain pop up and since I enjoy a decent kebab, I've wanted to pop in and give it a…read morego. My very first doner was in north west Germany and this has set me on a path of enjoying many, many kebabs since. I recently had the best kebab of my life just outside a train station in Germany while waiting for a train to a castle. As you do. The problem with this particular branch is that it's always crazy busy. I really don't want to take a kebab back to the office. I'm meant to be on a weight loss programme. So I want to eat it in, and there's rarely a table free. I thought I spotted one today and went in, turned out it wasn't free. But a table I didn't see from the outside was. Then unexpected things started to happen. I was initially told that I could only get a take away, till the staff member also noticed the table and then it was fine. This was because they do table service. I didn't expect that. I ordered the regular doner as a meal, so it came with fries and a drink. It's an unusual set up for a kebab shop - there's a lot of staff, the kitchen can be seen from the seating area but is glassed off from the customers. The kitchen incidentally looks crazy clean for a kebab shop. So back to the table service. I didn't have to wait long, and the kebab was big. Supposedly I could have gone bigger, but I'm glad I didn't as I couldn't have managed it all. The fries were good, I liked that the soda came in a glass bottle (which they took the cap off at the table after bringing it to me) without a straw. But the kebab was the star. I tried some doner meat (beef rather than the usual lamb) and it was so thin that I probably could have seen through it if I'd held it up to the light. The seasoning was exactly how I remember from that train station kebab in Germany, and was the leanness of it all. Here comes the revelation - normally for British kebabs I end up picking the contents out of the pita because it never holds together and usually isn't of great quality. But the bread here is astonishingly good. It's crisp in the right places and keeps the fairly moist mixture of meat, salad and sauces intact without going soggy. This isn't the best kebab I've had. But it's a lot closer than Germany, and is close enough that I really don't care. I'd go as far as saying that it's annoyingly good, because I really am trying to look after my waistline and yet I want to eat this over and over again.

This is a busy little station, used by over 4.8 million passengers a year, with 15,000 passing through each week-day. This end of North End Road has a number of shops, pubs and cafes. The station was opened on the District Line in 1874 on its extension to Hammersmith, but was bypassed by the Piccadilly Line extension in 1906 - the Piccadilly line tracks emerge from their underground tunnel just to the west. The station is still only served by District Line trains, on Richmond and Ealing Broadway services. The street-level building was rebuilt in 1927 in Portland stone by the famous London Transport architect Charles Holden, although it is one of his more conservative designs. The platforms have traditional railway canopies, reflecting their Victorian origins. To the south of the station is the remains of a short tunnel which used to lead to the Midland Railway's West Kensington Coal depot and Goods Yard - it can be seen by District Line trains entering from Baron's Court.

We went big and ordered a lot: cod (£4.50), haddock (£4.60), large chips (5 scoops for £2.40), sausages - 1 battered and 1 plain (£1.30 each), and a small kebab wrap (£4.20). Keep in mind there was only three of us. We took it home and unwrapped the feast. Yes, it was quite a feast! I don't know how London does it, but just like Japan, their fried food is heavenly! Maybe it's the batter, maybe it's the way they fry it, but everything is light and tasty at the same time! Sprinkle some malt vinegar on the fish and chips and you are set. The large order of chips is way too much for 3 people. Don't be afraid to order the regular size, especially if you are also ordering other items. The sausages were delicious, though I prefer the plain over the battered. The kebob wrap was fresh and tasty and a nice change from all the fried food we ordered. Even though we went overboard with the order, I'm glad we got a taste of almost everything on the first go. Of course, now we know the right amount to order for the number of people dining! =)
