When you find something good, you should tell people, especially when it's a mom-and-pop shop which could go under any time.
Last night, I karma-drove* my way, based on a vague memory, to a hidden gem tucked away on Marine Drive, just as you're headed to the airport. A kebab shack which I can't remember the name of.
I ordered the chicken kebab, which comes with "salad" and rice or naan. What I ended up with was first, a show, as they bring out a loooooooong skewer of beautifully spiced chicken. Into the inside tandoori it goes. Veggies get grilled up next to the oven, and about halfway through the chicken cooking, they spin the naan dough, spread it out on a wet towel, and slap it up against the wall of the oven. Delicious bread comes out like two seconds later!
When it was all done, it got put in a container along with some wonderful wonderful tahini with just a hint of heat, and chopped cucumbers. It was divine and simple, with wonderfully moist chicken and perfect seasonings.
Worth the drive, absolutely.
