You get in a cab and the driver asks you where you're going and what sauce you'd like with your Kebab.

The glovebox contains baclava and the dashboard has a selection of other middle eastern delights like tabouli, hommous and several types of delicious cheeses, that the driver can scoop into your Kebab while he drives you to your location. In the middle console between you and the driver are 2 large slowly revolving columns of meat - chicken and beef that are heated from engine conduits that slices can be carved from for your meal, as the cabab drives about.

The Burrito Bus comes past every 20 minutes if you prefer Mexican.

       Why not serve beer as well ? "Beer taxi" could take on a whole new dimension.......   

       // Burrito Bus .... if you prefer Mexican //   

       Presumably there's also a Curry Train, where late-coming patrons ride on the roof ?

       Anything that promotes the proliferation of horrible takeaway kebabs is a bad idea in my book

The burritto bus however sounds awesome, so [neutral] on this occasion.

       I'm fine with cabab taxi, but IMHO, burritos are crying out, through the subtle yet tenacious medium of their shape, for a citywide distribution network not of buses but of the humble pneumatic tube.

       In our fast-food society I'm actually shocked something like this hasn't caught on already.

       Welcome back benfrost. The burrito bus should be one of those silver airstream trailers.

       Does anyone else remember Max's Laxative Saxophone Taxi?

       My mate used to work in a kebab shop when we were still at school and once the delivery guy gave us a lift into town. His car, a leather- seated 3-door toyota, dripped with grease from its saturated pores. The dashboard oozed with the condensation of steaming fat, and the upholstery stank of rotting horse. With windows open, the gag reflex was still hard to stifle.   

       As fun as it sounds to incorporate both the drunken taxi cab and drunken kebab-devouring behaviours of the masses into one convenient experience, it... will... be... horrible. (Sorry [Ben] [-])

       //The glovebox contains baclava// - that's all you need for my bun.   

       //Does anyone else remember Max's Laxative Saxophone Taxi?// I do. What does that say about me?

       It says you read Viz in the mid nineties and may also remember Mickey's Monkey Spunk Moped!

       What you need is one of those carnival vendor trucks, or perhaps sandwich delivery trucks, rigged up with a passenger booth. Any smallish converted RV might do the trick. Horrible for gas mileage though and I wouldn't want to venture the regulations that would be imposed.
