All the kebab menus are made by Turkish chefs. All menus are halal and voluminous.
When you order a kebab, you can choose from three types; beef, chicken, and a mixture of both.
A Turkish chef skillfully slices the spinning chunks of meat and serves plenty of vegetables and meat on pita bread or tortillas.
The Kaminarimon store also has a popular menu of stalls such as Korean hotdogs with cheese and long french fries.
Chicken kebab sandwich
Since alcoholic beverages are available (which are not available at other branches of Saray Kebab) it is recommended to grab a kebab on the terrace outside and enjoy a drink beer like “Hoppy Street,” a common touring spot and specialty of Asakusa.
The spicy and tasty sauce on the kebab matches great with beer.

I currently work as an editor, but my previous job was as a chef, with many years of experience working in hospitals, restaurants, and the food service industry. Looking back, I think my connection to halal may have already been there.
Decades ago, I once worked in a cafeteria at an auction venue. Over 60% of the visitors were foreigners. Many Muslims were present, and the venue had a mosque-like prayer space. I remember being frequently asked questions about whether the meat was halal and what kind of meat it was. At certain times, the cafeteria would become as lively as a festival. The Indian restaurant next door would generously serve free biryani, curry, and sweet drinks to everyone who came. Over 100 people, including people wearing bright red turbans, galabeyas, and traditional attire, gathered in the cafeteria, all sitting around the same table and enjoying a truly enjoyable time. Looking back, it was iftar, the end of fasting, and I understand the significance of sharing, but at the time I was ignorant of halal and Islam, and didn't even consider how to respond. They only ate the curry made by the Indians in the restaurant. As I studied halal, I realized, "I wanted to eat Japanese food, but I couldn't." I regret not doing anything even though there was something I could have done.
If only it didn't contain pork! If only it didn't contain wheat or buckwheat! I could eat it... Food insecurity is different for each person.
That's why I think it's important to learn about the differences in culture, religion, and lifestyle that underlie it, and to create an environment where everyone can enjoy delicious meals in comfort.
The desire for delicious, safe, and secure food is universal. The times are calling for people to live in new ways that transcend borders and religions. I hope that halal can be a gateway to eliminating food insecurity, contributing even in some small way to a society where people can coexist and prosper with more liberal thinking, and to global harmony beyond.
