A donair is a variation on the doner kebab. It was originally introduced in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada in the early 1970s. A restaurant called King of Donair claims to have been the first to serve this version in 1973. The owners of King of Donair had originally tried selling Greek Gyro sandwiches, but had a hard time selling them so replaced the lamb with beef and the tzatziki with a sweet garlic sauce, thus inventing the Donair. When the owners of King of Donair approached a local printer, Leo Arkelian of Halcraft Printers to design advertising, he suggested the new anglicized spelling, making it unique to the Halifax area.
