The Kapsalon's creation is attributed to a Cape Verdean hairdresser in Rotterdam in 2003. He would frequently order the same combination of ingredients from a local shoarma shop, eventually leading to the dish being named after him (Kapsalon translates to 'hairdresser's shop'). It reflects the multicultural culinary landscape of the Netherlands, blending elements from various cuisines.

The Kapsalon is a flavor explosion, combining savory meat, crispy fries, creamy sauce, melted cheese, and refreshing vegetables.
The core flavor comes from the seasoned shoarma (or döner) meat, offering savory and often slightly spicy notes. The fries provide a salty and crispy base. Gouda cheese melts over the meat, adding a rich and creamy texture. Garlic sauce contributes a pungent and creamy element, while the salad (typically lettuce, tomato, and cucumber) provides freshness and a counterpoint to the richness. Sambal or hot sauce adds optional heat.

Eating Strategy
The Kapsalon is best eaten with a fork, allowing you to get a bit of everything in each bite. Start from the top layer to fully experience all the flavors and textures.
Sauce Customization
Most places allow you to customize the sauces. Consider trying different combinations of garlic sauce, sambal, and other sauces to find your perfect flavor profile. Some places even offer yogurt-based sauces.
Vegetarian Options
Many shoarma shops offer vegetarian versions of the Kapsalon, typically using falafel, vegetarian shoarma substitutes, or vegetables in place of the meat.
Freshness Counts
The quality of the ingredients matters. Look for shoarma shops that use fresh, high-quality meat and vegetables for the best-tasting Kapsalon.
