I have just eaten today Roasted Chicken sold in rotisserie carts around my city in Germany and mostly run by Turkish residents. The chicken are hot and freshly roasted and juicy. What I like about my particular rotisserie is not just the chicken but the friendly man who runs the place. Also, he also offers special deals, 3 half pieces (big ones) are only sold at 7 euros. Pollo a la Brasa reminds me also of home. In the Philippines we have our very own Lechong Manok which was popularized by Andok's.
