My guess was that Parmo is some kind of milk of magnesia deal.

Cornwall. :)

Well it's close to Wales at least.

Ironic that you would use a pic of Martin Freeman to reply to a comment about Benedict Cumberbatch. :P
Experience bij!

Cumberbatch is an actor.

Is this some of that cockney rhyming slang nonsense?

OK, the unfortunate name aside, why does that mean actor?

:yes:

And I loved Cornwall when I visited it.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

WTF is "Parmo?"
I had to look it up. Apparently it's a fried breadcrumbed chicken topped with cheesy bechamel sauce. A fast food delicacy of Middlesbrough :)
Let's bomb Russia!

I went with the Austrian staple - kebab.

What exactly does kebab mean?

In American English it usually refers to shish kebab, meat and veg on a skewer, but obviously it means something more general.

Kebab means "meat", IIRC. So Döner Kebab would be rotating meat in Turkish (like Gyros):



A döner kebab in Germany/Austria usually means that meat on a sandwich:



In Germany the sandwich would be called in short "Döner", in Austria "Kebab".
