Sujuk Sandwich

The Best Sujuk Sandwich in Amsterdam

Meet our Sujuk Sandwich: spicy, garlicky Syrian beef sausage, grilled until sizzling and wrapped in freshly baked Saj bread. Known in Dutch as a ‘Sucuk Broodje’ and in Arabic as ساندويش سجق, this wrap is one of the most loved street foods in Syria and Lebanon. Today it is freshly prepared in our kitchen in Amsterdam Noord, just the way it is made on the streets of Damascus and Beirut.

What Makes This Syrian Sausage So Special?

Sujuk is a dry, cured beef sausage with a bold and smoky character. It is seasoned generously with garlic, cumin, paprika, black pepper, and warm Levantine spices. When the slices hit the hot grill, the fat renders out, the spices bloom, and the edges turn crisp and caramelised. That deep, savoury flavor is what makes this sandwich so addictive.

Across the Middle East, this sausage is a breakfast favorite fried with eggs, a late-night snack, and a proud part of family gatherings. We bring that same comfort to every order we make.

Made on Authentic Syrian Saj Bread

The bread makes the sandwich. Our Saj bread is baked fresh in-house on a traditional domed griddle. It is thin, soft, and lightly charred, so it wraps around the hot sausage without becoming heavy. Each wrap is rolled tightly and toasted briefly so the outside gets a gentle crunch while the inside stays warm and juicy.

What Goes Inside

Every wrap is built with care and balance in mind:

• Grilled slices of spiced beef sausage
• Freshly baked Saj bread
• Juicy tomato slices
• Crunchy pickles
• Our signature homemade garlic sauce

The garlic sauce cools the heat of the spices, the pickles add a tangy bite, and the tomato brings freshness. Want it your way? Ask for extra garlic sauce or no pickles and we will happily adjust your order.

A Taste of Levantine Street Food Heritage

In Syria and Lebanon, street food is about simple ingredients done extremely well. Small grills, fresh bread, and bold spices have fed families for generations. Our recipe follows that tradition, with no shortcuts and no compromises, so you can enjoy real Levantine flavor without leaving Amsterdam.

How We Grill It

Timing is everything. We slice the sausage thinly so it cooks quickly and evenly, then grill it on high heat until the edges start to crisp. This way the spices release their full aroma while the centre stays tender. The hot slices go straight onto warm bread with the fresh toppings, and the wrap is rolled and toasted within minutes. The result is a warm, smoky, and perfectly balanced bite every single time.

Perfect Pairings for Your Order

Make it a feast! Pair your wrap with our creamy Hummus, smoky Mutabal, or a fresh Falafel Salad. Craving more meat? Try our Beef Shawarma Sandwich or Chicken Shawarma Wrap. For a bigger appetite, our Beef with Rice plate is a great choice.
