It is omnipresent, and consists of seasoned boneless meat broiled on a vertical rotisserie, sliced and served on soft rolled pita bread. Zatar, including sumac, was always part of the seasoning mix and is widely available in specialty markets and online. Usually, in my experience, dill pickle was the only garnish, and the bread was warmed and soft, not toasted. That’s not to say that this pizza style version doesn’t look delicious, but it seems way more Greek than Arabic to me.
