About this dish
It consists of a layer of french fries placed into a disposable metal take-away tray, topped with döner meat, covered with slices of Gouda cheese, and heated in an oven until the cheese melts. Then a layer of shredded iceberg lettuce is added, dressed with garlic sauce and sambal, a hot sauce. The term kapsalon is Dutch for "hairdressing salon" or a barber shop, alluding to the inventor's place of work. The dish is a product of Dutch multiculturalism, combining elements of dishes from multiple cultures, and quickly found its way on the Dutch fast-food menu. The dish also has spread internationally in a relatively short time.
