What you're describing is considered Greek around here, and is called souvlaki.

You're right, it's very similar to souvlaki - they share a lot of similar foods, I think. But the spices are a little different.

I like both! Souvlaki is wonderful stuff, too. Anything with spiced meat and yogurt and such is OK by me...

Do they usually cook the meat on that spit thing for souvlaki? I've had souvlaki quite a few times as there's a Greek restaurant (well, pizza place run by a Greek who makes some Greek specialties on the side), but I've never actually seen it made. The doner kebap places fascinated me.
