Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern dish consisting of thinly sliced meat, typically lamb, chicken, or beef, stacked on a vertical rotisserie. Seasoned with spices and marinated, it is slowly cooked on the spit, with the outer layer shaved off for tender, juicy, and flavorful meat.
Earlier this week, the Lebanese shawarma sandwich has secured third place in TasteAtlas’s latest rankings for ‘Best Sandwiches in the World,’ marking a significant achievement for Lebanon and its rich culinary heritage.

For over three decades, Peter’s Snack has been a beloved spot located in the center of Batroun, serving up a delicious variety of falafel, shawarma, and sandwiches.
Shawarma at Peter’s snack is served in an unusual twist on tradition, with no shawarma machine in sight. Here, Peter makes his own special shawarma sauce and cooks it on the stovetop, enriching each bite with his unique flavor character.
