a Donair is deliciousness on a pita
a Shawarma is a weird eerie food that you don't eat if you can have a donair.
From what I casually notice a shawarma is much lighter in colour (the meat that is) whereas donair has a darker meat to it.
As stated above KOD (King of Donair) has amazing donairs, there's one no pizza corner in Halifax (the world famous pizza corner, where the pizza is absolutely horrid so you etiher have pork on a stick from the guy on the street down a block, or you have a donair). There's a few throughout the city (one in Clayton Park, one on Quinpool Rd etc).
I don't know how the donairs are in Calgary, in Ottawa they're completely different than on the east coast. Donair sauce is also used as a dipping sauce for pizza here. Not sure what's in it, I don't want to know, but it's amazing.
If you've never had a donair, try one, and if outside the Maritimes, find a maritimer to see how close they are to the "real ones" back East.
Ahhh Halifax, where else can you get a donair at 4am on any random night? Moving back there, and I can't wait!
