TORONTO, Sept. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - With more than 160 restaurants across North America, OSMOW's is layering on the excitement for tasty Middle Eastern street food with its Fourth Annual National Shawarma Day on October 15!

Montreal to Miami, Buffalo to British Columbia, OSMOW's is calling all carnivores, vegetarians, spice lovers, and everyone in between: National Shawarma Day is the day to raise a shawarma for just $5!

Shawarma is a flavourful, marinated meat that slowly cooks on a rotating skewer. On OSMOW's National Shawarma Day, everyone is invited to enjoy the rich flavours and cultural significance of this beloved dish at a price that dates back to OSMOW's 2001 opening.

"Every October 15, shawarma becomes a symbol of unity and joy as throngs of people visit us!" says OSMOW's CEO & Head of Franchising Ben Osmow.

"Traditions bind us. We are excited to celebrate our fourth annual Shawarma Day, which has become a fun new tradition for new and loyal customers, franchisees, suppliers, and our delivery partners. Here's to a delicious flavour bringing joy to life. Come by, customize your toppings, engage with our crews, and feast for the fun of it for just $5."

The celebration includes special deals on OSMOW's legendary Chicken Shawarma wrap or ON THE ROCKS^® for just $5. Vegetarians can also enjoy a Falafel Wrap or ON THE ROCKS^® at the same deal.

Additional highlights of OSMOW's National Shawarma Day celebration include:

Culinary Exploration
At OSMOW's, Shawarma is prepared a little differently. Once the marinated meat is delicately carved, it's grilled to caramelized perfection and then served ON THE ROCKS® (rice), STIX® (fries) or classically wrapped in a thin pita bread that's then expertly grilled. Personalized with add-ons like fresh herbs and vegetables, feta or house-made sauces means there are endless combinations of Shawarma meals bursting with delicious flavours. A fan-favourite for a reason! Remember to try the Garlic S'Oz or OSMOW's Scorchin' Hot S'Oz, which is a favourite among our fans.

Charitable Initiatives
OSMOW's believes in giving back. Through the Osmow's Hope Fund initiative, the company supports children in need by raising funds to provide them with daily meals in schools in Zambia, India, and Pakistan. Since 2021, OSMOW's has raised over $200,000, with 100% of proceeds going towards the communities they support.
