Ottawa is home to nearly 200 Shawarma restaurants, serving up the Middle Eastern meal featuring marinated meat, garlic sauce and other toppings.

Now, council will weigh in on whether Canada's capital is also the 'Shawarma Capital of Canada.'

Coun. Laura Dudas will introduce a motion at today's council meeting to officially recognize Ottawa as the 'Shawarma Capital of Canada,' saying the Shawarma industry is a "major employer and economic driver."

Ottawa council plans to vote to declare Ottawa "the Shawarma capital of Canada". This would replace Ottawa's old moniker: "the capital of Canada"
