Our Wraps and Shawarma Menu

Chicken Shawarma — $21.90 $17.52

Marinated chicken thigh slow-cooked on a vertical spit, shaved to order and rolled in warm lavash with garlic sauce, pickles and salad. Thigh meat is used over breast because it holds moisture on the spit breast meat dries out at high heat. The marinade runs through the full thickness of the meat, not just the surface. The natural starting point for a first-time shawarma from Zuzu.

Lamb Shawarma — $22.90 $18.32

Spiced lamb layered on a vertical spit, cooked until the outer crust caramelises and is shaved into the wrap with tahini, fresh tomato and herbs. The fat content in the lamb renders as it cooks and bastes the layers below the result is richer and more intense than the chicken. The version that explains why shawarma's reputation was built on lamb, not chicken.

Falafel Wrap — $19.90 $15.92

Falafel made from ground chickpeas and herbs, fried fresh and rolled in lavash with hummus, pickled vegetables and salad. Not sourced frozen, not reheated. Vegetarian, halal and complete enough to work as a full meal. One of the most practical vegetarian wrap options available for delivery in Singapore.

Halloumi Wrap — $21.90 $17.52

Grilled halloumi wrapped in lavash with vegetables and sauce. Cypriot cheese that holds its structure under direct heat and develops a golden crust without melting. Firm, salty and genuinely satisfying not the soft filler texture that most vegetarian wraps rely on. Vegetarian and halal.

What Is Shawarma - And What Makes a Good One

The word shawarma comes from the Turkish çevirme to turn or rotate. It describes the cooking method. Layers of marinated meat are stacked on a vertical spit, rotating slowly against a heat source so the outer layer cooks gradually and is shaved to order. What goes into the wrap is that caramelized, spice-concentrated outer crust mixed with the softer interior meat underneath it.

Most shawarma problems trace back to two things: meat marinated for too short a time, and spice applied to the surface rather than worked through the full depth of the meat. A proper marinade penetrates through at least 24 hours. The spice should be present in the first bite and the last.

The Difference Between Chicken and Lamb Shawarma

Chicken shawarma uses thigh meat over breast the fat content keeps it from drying on the spit. The marinade runs on turmeric, garlic, cumin, lemon and yoghurt, producing a lighter, slightly sharp flavor that pairs well with garlic sauce and crisp pickles.

Lamb shawarma is built on a heavier spice base cumin, coriander, cinnamon and allspice. The fat in the lamb renders as it cooks and bastes the lower layers of meat. The result is richer, more intense and has a slightly smoky edge where the outer surface caramelises on the spit. The Turkish spice base at Zuzu is spice-forward a different profile from Lebanese-style shawarma and the version closer to what you find in Turkish kitchens.

Chicken Shawarma vs Lamb Shawarma - Which One to Order

The answer depends on what you want from the meal.

Chicken shawarma at $17.52 is the cleaner, lighter option. Garlic sauce, crisp pickles and a lighter marinade balance out to a well-rounded wrap. The better choice for a solo lunch or if you are splitting with someone who does not eat lamb.

Lamb shawarma at $18.32 is richer with a more assertive flavour. If you have had chicken shawarma many times and want to understand why the dish's reputation was built on lamb, this is the version to order. Pair it with a salad or the ezme from the cold appetizers the acidity cuts through the richness and balances the meal the way it is supposed to.

Both wraps include lavash, sauce, pickles and salad. Both are halal. Both are made to order.

Falafel and Halloumi Wraps - The Vegetarian Options at Zuzu

Vegetarian wraps in Singapore tend to fall into one of two categories: a plain cheese melt in flatbread, or a falafel made from a frozen mix and reheated. Neither is worth ordering twice.

At Zuzu, the falafel is made fresh ground chickpeas, herbs and spices, fried to order. In the wrap it comes with hummus, pickled vegetables and salad. It is one of the more complete vegetarian lunch options available for delivery in Singapore if you want something substantial without processed substitutes.

The halloumi wrap uses grilled halloumi with a direct-heat crust. The cheese holds its texture in the wrap rather than going soft. The natural saltiness of the halloumi carries the dish. Both wraps are listed on the vegetarian set meals page. Both are halal.
