description: "Kadir Nurman was a Turkish restaurateur, widely credited with having in 1972, in West Berlin, introduced or \"invented\" the fast food sandwich commonly known as the \"kebab\", consisting of traditional Turkish döner kebab meat stuffed together with mixed salad into a flatbread. Nurman received a lifetime achievement award from the Association of Turkish Döner Manufacturers in 2011. Afterwards, Nurman told the German magazine Frankfurter Rundschau that he was unhappy with modern döner kebab sandwiches, as \"there are too many ingredients\" in them."
