Deep dives

The Nostalgic Meal from the Kebab Van

My dream main course would be a chicken kebab, chips with burger sauce, and a cheeseburger from a specific kebab van that I used to visit as a teenager. It was a special place where I would go after gigs with my band and indulge in this greasy, delicious meal. The kebab van owner would give us free food because we brought in so many customers. I would eat it with my hands, sitting in my underwear with a pint of money on the side. It was a rebellious and nostalgic experience that brings back fond memories.
