As it happens, I can help.. having sampled an authentic local kebab at the Limassol Wine festival. Where you are going wrong is in your choice of meat.

Bunch of four of us, having consumed much refreshment there, sat down for something to eat.

Lead bloke: " What do you reckon to these kebabs then guys?"

Three slightly inebriated chaps " Yum yum, delicious etc etc" And it was..

Lead bloke in a loud voice to us lot "So what if I told you it's DONKEY!"

Cafe owner is over in a flash ..

"Hey, what are you accusing me of? You impugn my reputation and accuse me of selling donkey?"

Lead bloke "yeah yeah, Look mate, I grew up in India and I've eaten donkey loads of times. This is donkey meat. But it's very tasty and very well cooked by the way!! "

Wasn't much the guy could say really .....
