Shoarma is an Egyptian recipe that we eat here in the Netherlands. When you order it someone cut's it from a big piece of meat, and prepares it. In Delft there is this
little restaurant 'Pyramids of Gold' (five minutes walking from where Vermeer used to live). (If one goes there there is a painting on the wall with the restaurant
painted on it, and for some reason the composition reminds me of the little street by Vermeer, very strange). We used to eat this often in the middle of the night,
coming back from where we used to go out. These places are often open till 3 or 4 o'clock in the night. I heard a lot of things from my friends above a plate of
'Shoarma'.
- If Vermeer had lived today he would definately have eaten this... And he would have gone to the McDonalds, which is also in Delft (like everywhere).
