Here's a restaurant with a global tale: Selim’s Doner House, a fast-food Turkish place that’s the first U.S. branch of a chain based in Germany.
Owner Levent "Larry" Kirazoglu studied hotel management in Turkey, then came here to pursue his studies further; he was a manager at Arcodoro/Pomodoro and at Café Istanbul before opening Selim's.
Doner, a stacked, shaved meat cooked on a spit that’s similar to shawarma or gyro, was first created by Alexander the Great, who stacked a bunch of meat on a fire to feed his soldiers, says Kirazoglu. Doner kebab sandwiches, served in pita bread, are the No. 1 fast-food item in Germany, home to 5 million people of Turkish descent.
