When a wrap is not enough, the shawarma platter delivers. Your choice of fresh-carved halal chicken or beef shawarma served over seasoned rice with creamy hummus, crisp salad and our famous garlic sauce. It is the most satisfying plate in St. Vital — perfect for dine-in, takeout or feeding the whole table.
The shawarma platter is the full Al Taj experience on one plate. We start with a bed of fluffy seasoned rice, add a generous helping of shawarma carved fresh from the spit, then round it out with silky hummus, garden-fresh salad and warm pita on the side.
Every platter is customizable — choose chicken, beef or a mix of both, pick your sauces from garlic to tahini to hot sauce, and set your own spice level. It is hearty, balanced and made entirely halal.
Our platters are famous around St. Vital for their portions. Order one for a filling dinner, or bring home a few for an easy family meal. They also make effortless office lunches and game-night spreads for groups across south Winnipeg.
Dine in at 160 Meadowood Drive across from St. Vital Centre, call (204) 306-0470, or order online for pickup. Platters travel well, making them ideal for takeout.

"The shawarma platter is unreal value. Rice, salad, hummus and a pile of fresh chicken shawarma — I can barely finish it. Best lunch near St. Vital Centre."
