The humble döner kebab is getting a refined makeover in the heart of the French Riviera. ZENDONER, a new gourmet street food spot located on Rue Masséna in Nice, is reimagining the classic Berlin-style döner with a modern, upscale twist. The concept is already making waves among food lovers and conscious consumers alike.

Behind this innovative project is Dr. Turhan Guldas, a medical doctor turned culinary entrepreneur. “My goal was to create a döner that respects both tradition and quality,” he says. “It’s a street food dish, but it deserves the same care and attention as any gourmet meal.”

Quality Meets Fast Food

ZENDONER is all about high-quality ingredients and meticulous preparation. Homemade bread, slow-roasted marinated meat, crisp vegetables, freshly made sauces, and plant-based options define a menu that is short, sharp, and designed for maximum flavor.

Guests can choose between veal, chicken, or a vegetarian version of the döner, with homemade fries or fresh salads on the side. Drinks include ayran, organic sodas, and house-made iced teas. Prices range from €7 to €10, making it both accessible and premium.

Where Cultures and Flavors Meet

ZENDONER’s design is sleek and minimalist, with a strong focus on efficiency and eco-conscious packaging. Its culinary identity is rooted in a fusion of German-Turkish street food and Mediterranean freshness, reflecting the multicultural heritage of its founder and clientele.

Though newly launched, ZENDONER is built with scalability in mind — and ambitions are high. The team is already exploring expansion into other French cities.

A New Kind of Street Food

ZENDONER is part of a growing trend: fast food with values. Ethical sourcing, fast service, healthy choices, and a gourmet touch — this is the future of casual dining. For Dr. Guldas, it’s more than a restaurant; it’s a way to combine wellness, flavor, and cultural storytelling.
