The first Star Kebab store in the back alley of Akihabara Electric Town
Star Kebab is a long-established kebab shop running 3 kebab stores in Akihabara.
The first store is a takeaway and to-go specialized Akihabara main store. The second store is the Starkebab Akiba Terrace, and the third store is the Star Kebab Hot Sandwich.
Also, the kebab factory in Iriya sells wholesale kebab meat, pita bread, and kebab sauce, while the online shop also sells frozen food kebabs.
In addition, they offer a wide range of services such as business trip sales with kitchen cars, event stores, catering services, orders for parties, etc.
Star Kebab take away Akihabara main store is next to the Akibao-2 store in Denki-gai. The mark is the roaring music flowing from the shop and the chunks of meat that spins around.

At Star kebab, you can choose meat from three choices: chicken, beef, and MIX of both chicken and beef.
They use halal Chicken meat, so many muslims order chicken for their ingredients.
Beef is Australian and not halal friendly, but there is no food menu that includes pork or alcohol.
After choosing the meat, you can customize the sauce of the kebab.
Qualified Halal-Chicken is used
Select your favorite sauce from 6 choices
For sauces, besides sweet and hot flavor, there is also a curry flavor called Baharat and Iskender sauce.
Iskender is a tomato base sauce w/ garlic and yogurt. The white of yogurt shines in the bright red sauce and it looks beautiful. The refreshing spiciness and mild acidity are exquisite and very delicious.
By the way, the writer’s best recommendation is grilled cheese kebab sandwich.
Grilled Hellim Cheese & Kebab Sandwich ￥750 w/
It contains plenty of kebab meats and helim cheese made from milk of sheep and goats that does not melt when baked.
The salty, thick cheese and fresh tomatoes match great together!
The Star Kebab store is very satisfying because the meat is packed to the end of pita bread. There is also a large size, but even with the normal size it has considerable volume, so you will be able to get very satisfied.
Beef-pita ￥600 Iskender spicy sauce
There are three Star Kebab stores in Akihabara, and the menu contents differ slightly depending on the store.
In addition to the basic menu, the first store has kebab seaweed rolls. The 2nd store has curry and rice bowls, the 3rd store has pizza, and you can enjoy different tastes from pita bread kebab sandwiches.
There is a secret basic seasoning with a great taste, so it’s delicious without the sauce
It seems that Star Kebab carries the meat from the kebab factory, while watching the weather. They pre-cook the meat depending on the weather, and they transport it to Akihabara.
In addition, the kebab meat is soaked in a special seasoning and firmly seasoned, so it is delicious enough without the additional sauce.
For beef, Australian Aussie beef is used. For chicken, Halal and Brazilian meat is used.
Actually, Star Kebab is the first Grand Prix of the Kebab Championship, so its taste is approved.
Here, there is a menu called Iftyard that sandwiches kebabs with french bread.
The traditional Turkish style kebab is French bread based and not pita bread. Even though it’s called French bread, it’s a soft batar, so it’s easy to eat.
Unlike pita bread, which tends to release water over time, french bread kebab is suitable for taking home.
Since the bread is baked before served, it has a crispy texture. The ingredients are simply tomatoes and onions.
It seems to be delicious without sauce, but of course it matches with any sauce you can choose.
At the second store, “Starkebab Akiba Terrace,” there is a mackerel sandwich made with French bread and a halal beef köfte sandwich. Please try the traditional taste of a long-established kebab shop full of volume.
Köfte sandwich（HALAL BEEF） ￥700

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.
