Donair pizza is one of those crazy mashups that could have only been created on the East Coast. Like the beloved donair, it includes all the same fixin’s, but with one important addition; mozzarella cheese. So if you’re having trouble deciding between pizza and a donair, this creative twist on a classic is the way to go!
