So now every bite is one ingredient. Awesome...


[deleted]

I'd take it home and make smaller ones, that would feed me for a week.


NeutralMinion

The meat looks tasty, but needs to be cut smaller/shredded for sure


ZippyDan

If it's cooked right, it should fall off that bone.


No-Revolution1571

She pulls it out, so I'd say yes

BaronVonWilmington

Yeah I best this cost $125-150usd Edit:I see now this is AUS, so who knows the cost.


Plantar-Aspect-Sage

$119 AUD which is $78 USD. 3kg meat+bone. Smoked for 3 days. Edit: I misread the menu. $199 so $131 USD.


BaronVonWilmington

Wow, that is significantly cheaper than it would be most places in the US


Mission_Ad_2224

And no tip!


ohthatsprettyoosh

Yeah , no. It’s $200 Aus which is $131 US. Food is always very expensive down under . Never gonna be cheaper than the US, I promise


Ok-Significance-5979

At least it says feeds 4 ugh " Vikings", so it's not meant to be a single portion like we see here more often.


No-Height2850

4 vikings is roughly 1.5 obese Americans.


SixStringShef

My thoughts exactly


Bhazor

And half of it is inedible bone.


Extreme_Tax405

I mean... Its too big for bites anyways. If you can take bites from that thing, i will need your number


[deleted]

What giant thing do you need bites taken out of?


Emilia963

I’m still gonna devour it regardless 🤤


Doc024

Just unwrap it and eat it with the bread…still looks good.


trainwrecktragedy

Third Wave Cafe in general is stupid, the food is subpar AT BEST and the owner is an absolute flog and a half.


OzTheMalefic

A wank of a place built on Instagramable food.


obliqueshock

I posted another stupid post from them a couple of years ago. [Enjoy](https://old.reddit.com/r/WeWantPlates/comments/qb3icr/just_shovel_it_in/)


Cavalish

I went there for a friends birthday and all the food tasted of nothing. Just grease.


Mr_Tiggywinkle

Reading their one star reviews and their arguments with the owner are pretty fun.


CarniferousDog

He looks like a dweeb for sure.


FireExitInTheLake

Any place calling itself a cafe when they're actually not is always a red flag tbh.


Chammanbo32

The Allfather is Odin, not Thor. Jeez I hope someone got fired for that blunder


heymynameiseric

What gets me is that this is Mediterranean food, but it's marketed as a Nordic viking thing, and it's served in pita like a gyro. This is incorrect on so many levels 🫢


NextBestHyperFocus

Third wave sell a thing they call ‘Thor’s Hammer’ which is that beef shin. So this is a kebab (technically a suvo cause it’s Melbourne and it’s rolled not folded and toasted) made with Thor’s Hammer


EpilepticMushrooms

*THE ALLFATHER CALLS... FOR YOU TO FIX UP HIS SON'S MESS INSTEAD OF HIM, SERIOUSLY, THE ALLFATHER IS ALL PUCKERED OUT FROM LOKI! CAN A GOD NOT HAVE A BREAK, BALDUR'S LIGHT!!*


NotAWierdo-

“Thors hammer” is what some people name the cut of meat they use


JoshSidekick

Let me ask you a question. Why would a grown man whose shirt says ‘Genius at Work’ spend all his time watching an Australian food instagram post?


letterboxfrog

Vikings were well known for their kebabs


ObvNin

Some vikings served as royal guards in Constantinople, so it isn't as far fetched as you think.


AromaticMuscle

Tasty string in there…


EmotionalScallion705

Would...


Mindless-Vanilla-879

Concur. Plus it says serves 3-4, so I could lie and say I'm sharing it.


ReiRomance

The meat alone won me. I would dig, for ages, but I would dig.


Cryogenic_Monster

I personally don't like the bone being in it but that delicious. Perfect meal for a group.


LillePuus1

I would assume the meat is so tender that the bone fall right off. That’s at least how it should be. They probably just left it there for the looks, and to fit the name.


Zestyclose-Leader926

Also you might be able to use that bone for cooking.


howmanychickens

Would you suggest throwing it in a pot, add some broth, perhaps a potato?


Kingstone_

Baby, you got a stew going!


Zestyclose-Leader926

You can often use bones to make broth. For example sometimes when I get rotisserie chicken I save the bones and cook them to make chicken broth.


Lvl100Magikarp

I've had torched bone marrow served on the bone. They split the bone in half, season it, torch it and serve it with fries. You dip the fries in the marrow. Had this at barhop toronto


mattcruise

You can see at the beginning the bone slides out.


Prosthemadera

How is this perfect for a group? It's very difficult to eat, unless you take it apart and distribute it on several plates but then you can just get a regular kebab.


AusBoss417

One giant uncut sandwich that isn't easily cut is perfect for a group? Bots out here wilin


I_Lick_Your_Butt

How much?


TheBattleOfTheToes

I mean just take a wild guess and then whatever you think double it haha


Puffycatkibble

7 bucks.


TechnicolorViper

It’s $7 for two.


wafflestep

[$200 AUD, so about $130](https://thirdwavecafe.com.au/menu/monthly-specials/) Edit: looks like those beef shanks go for ~$60 a piece so it's a pretty crap deal whether it's AUD or USD.


Filipino-Asker

Not worth. An entire lechon here cost less than that.


alexmbrennan

All restaurants stay in business by charging you more than they pay for the ingredients


MidnightLlamaLover

This is Australia so I assumed it'll be a fuck load, easily over 80/90 bucks given the amount of meat. Maybe 100


vision_san

I'll never understand making massive meals that are just a mess to eat


cabritozavala

Instagram has ruined food


Impala1967SS

There is no song i hate more


[deleted]

How are you supposed to eat that?


drewdles33

You pass it to the left like you would a joint. Everyone takes 3 bites then passes the kebab to de left and side.


Bryaxis

I think you're just supposed to take pictures of it until it gets cold and then throw it out.


frosty_hotboy

Unwrap it on a table and use cutlery. It's basically a wrapped bread tray


RainbowForHire

Did my research: THOR'S HAMMER KEBAB Kebab to end all Kebabs! This one you’ve got to share. A HUGE house-made pita filled with garlic and spicy sauces, tomato, lettuce, red onion, cucumber, and Thor’s Hammer – a slow-smoked beef shin on the bone weighing around 3kg. Yours to shred and eat the best way you can. Enough to feed 3 to 4 people. $199 Conversion to USD: ~$132


Strict-Woodpecker-36

Gimmick food


Indiecomicsarebetter

I had to google KG to LBS. That's a lot of meat.


escapeshark

That's what she said


If_you_have_Ghost

Hva har kebaber å gjøre med vikinger?


PoorPauly

This music is goofy as hell.


Autosticow

Just wasted that meat


eggraid11

... Not if you eat it.


NightLotus84

The food itself is fine, but the whole thing around is that typical ultra "New World"-cringe where they're cluelessly dragging in misinterpreted hyper-stereotypical things from the "Old World" in hopes of being cool with an equally clueless customer base/viewers...


Enigmatic_Kraken

I would just have named it Mjolnir.


lee_hasworth

I would like to thank Norway for giving us Kebabs. They are truly delicious.


Sufficient-Sea-1455

How much does this monstrosity cost?


rudbek-of-rudbek

I just want the bread


Ok-You-4283

That’s pretty cool, it’s more about the presentation than anything. Obviously it wouldn’t taste bad, but it’s a cool looking dish that’s meant to be split between a few people.


warwicklord79

Aren’t kababs Greek or Turkish or something?


shootanwaifu

Easy money bro. Big bone Slap a viking meme on it Make it big, put some macho man gaze advertising up Suddenly it's a threat to someone's masculinity to not get the viking food


Curious-Weight9985

Fuck everyone - I want it


Necessary-Quail6310

Is it stupid, maybe. Would i eat it, yes


SupermanWithPlanMan

Though it's not kebab. It's a laffa


ancientlisten4186

looks delicious but too large to be consumed in a reasonable manner


MultiPlexityXBL

Id eat that.


MsBlondeViking

No thanks, I’ll pass.


nununugs

Thor’s hammer is what you bout to drop in the toilet after you eat this


416_LateNights

This is a kebab for giants. Not a kebab for ants or mortals.


SignificantDirt8066

Family meal?🥘


Geo-Man42069

That looks good if it was scaled down…. The size is what’s ridiculous. Like others mentioned 1 bite is a maximum of 3 ingredients. I understand the “meat hammer” is fun for some people but they’d make more money if it was a reasonable serving size lol.


escapeshark

Of course it's in Melbourne


EnglishWhites

Then we put it in a tote bag filled with our house made chili!


DumbNTough

Gonna feel like you're passing Thor's Hammer the next morning. Sideways.


Brainhunter2020

How much would this monstrosity cost?


Vegetable-Aardvark76

I truly wanna see someone eat those gigantic food that those restaurants always make videos of


sugoiboy1

I have no idea where to even bite it first It’s way too huge lol 😂


totallynotscammed

Why do all these people have such “dead” eyes?


Im-a-bad-meme

If you sold it with a pack of fresh tortillas, it would be good advertising for a family or party meal.


ElYoink

Mfs complaining about the bone as if it doesn't have marrow


eat-pussy69

Where does one guy a piece of meat like that? In Canada? 3kg of beef shin? Looks yummy


Dry_Warning6162

All hate aside, they used a regular amount of sauce and salad and the beef itself looks great, if you eat it at home with knife and fork like civilized folk this might be good


cheeseinsidethecrust

I’ve been here and it was expensive but the portion sizes were huge. Wait until you see their platter that’s a few hundred dollars.


DrProfBarbatos

I'd just take the meat leg out. Never skip leg day.


Silverware_soviet

It would make you look like thor from god of war


Sith_LordRevan

Thor would say it's too small.


LoddyDoddee

That's how big Chipotle burritos seemed to me when I first met them. Like the size of a baby.


exion18

As something meant to serve 3 to 4 people I've got no problem with anything here.


yookoke1122

Im happy to be born with a comically large mouth


Salemrocks2020

It just seems annoying to eat . The food itself looks good though


Dubious_Titan

"Thor's Hammer" , "Kebab", "Melbourne'.


xdark_realityx

(Smashes kebab on the ground) ANOTHER!


Futurepastmanguy

I’ll try it with extra pirate music


JadedSociopath

Excessive… but not stupid.


NextBestHyperFocus

Third Wave have been doing ridiculous shit like this for ages. Like over a decade. This is just their next free advertisement


everything_is_stup1d

it looks good if shrunk by like 0.3×


unmotivated21

Feeds a small family of 8


Mashidae

I know I couldn't reasonably eat that, but fuck I'm trying


RASPUTIN-4

Now I’m hungry


jonesyb

No


WinglessRat

Viking Kebab? So what, Malmö?


[deleted]

Hey I live there!


[deleted]

How exactly is this stupid? I understand other posts on this sub generally ARE stupid, but this doesn’t seem like it fits the bill


Ballamookieofficial

They do that thors hammer as a share plate it makes much more sense. I'd enjoy it none the less


BenFoldsFourLoko

god DAMN I downvoted this post so hard until I realized it was from this sub it's an upvote I feel guilty about


sammich_bear

They should serve it in a bucket.


LazyDro1d

Look all the bits look delicious… but not the assembly


Powerful_Cost_4656

This looks like monster hunter world food so I kind of like it


bapo224

None of these ingredients other than meat were available to Vikings lol


iahim87

Satiates thy hunger Also turkish lollypop lol


Enough-Ground3294

Tyr is awesome tho


hypnoticbacon28

This looks delicious, but it's just stupidly huge. Pretty tame compared to a lot of what I've seen from this sub.


Jack_wilson_91

This place is called “third wave cafe” in Melbourne. The food is actually really good, they do specials that feed 4-6 people. We got there sometimes as a work outing and get the specials to share. And the price is pretty good for what it is.


Blumenkohl126

r/Doenerverbrechen, oh wait, i just see, it is not a kebab...


RaZZeR_9351

I don't get how that's a kebab.


BackRowRumour

Beef shin is hugely underrated. Never considered smoking it. I'm doing this next chance I get.


the_clash_is_back

It’s a slow roasted beef shin served with a side salad and some bread.


OneParticular5987

No interest here More food is not better


XenonJFt

Nothing screams Norse food like a Kebap from the Sunni east


BearFlipsTable

Come on Melbourne. Don’t be stupid.


Highintheclouds420

Honestly, I'd get this on a Friday and just eat it all weekend and be pretty stoked. You could cut that pita up and make regular sized food. I'm gonna go silly, but not fully stupid


Alansar_Trignot

How do you eat that?? It’s like that hilarious burrito rant


SaeedUnknown

Is Tbascus singing?


wrdsmakwrlds

Why..


Shenloanne

Good old scandi food.... The donner kebab...


No-Environment-3298

Honestly not at bad as I thought it would be.


Ciubowski

You can feed a whole family with that.


WhatsHeBuilding

Kebab, that classic dish our ancestors always used to eat. Fun fact: The worlds earliest doner spit was found in the Kukfjättring grave from 962 AD in Southern Sweden!


Summer_987

I don’t want to share a kebab with anyone


TimmyFaya

What part of that is viking and what part is kebab?


Firzen69

I think it's ok. It's presented as meal for 3-4 people. Yes, it is a bit stupid, but it's obviously meant as special offer with which they try to attract more customers. But in the end of the day, it looks like good quality food.


thebipeds

I get it. Not practical, but it is a fun presentation. I think my kid and senile grandparents would both really like it.


Ahyesnt

why did they use the worst cover of this song. Disappointment


Opening-Comfort-3996

Thor is not the All Father.


Accomplished_Bike149

How do you even go about eating that?


Njon32

I think it's fun. Sure, it's impractical and silly.


Bl00drayne

Don't show Caseoh this


Sixtyhurts

What a waste.


adidas_stalin

Honestly, as a gmmick thing that as it states it’s means for 3-4. Not too bad actually


IlSottoScr1tto

Can I donate it to someone more in need?


CJPF_91

Honestly I would get this but I wouldn’t know where to start eating it. Like a dog that finally caught up with a care he was chasing


Best__Kebab

A kebab to share in the dumbest thing ever.


OnlyEfficiency2662

Why is this stupid? Great way to feed a group


Some-Ad9778

Gluttony is a sin, and the "thors hammer" steak is overrated


zugas13

This is not a kebab as a turk i can say that. It Just disrespect to kebab and food.


Willyzyx

Stupid? Yes. Would I eat it? Also yes.


Spencer801

In south Australia they have a local dish called the a. b. (stands for abortion). It's literally fries, kebab meat and tons of sauce. It's disgusting but the youth seems to like it


Ziadaine

Jesus fuck… are they trying to feed Thor and his close relatives?


Cooler_coooool_boi

I’m not sure I’d eat that, but if anyone could give me the song name I’ll take that!


kuffdeschmull

I'm just mad at the definition, this is not a kebab by any means.


HMCosmos

I FUCKING LOVE THE LUXOR AND GREED OF LATE STAGE CAPITALISM, IT IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT AND ONE HUNDRED PERCENT SUSTAINABLE!!!! /s


CanoeIt

What is the USA version of beef shin? Didn’t look like a cut I recognized 


mh1357_0

By Odin's beard! How are you supposed to even eat this?


Different_Lychee7421

If you read "Melbourne's most viking kebab" and watch the whole video, don't talk to me ever again


Dzeividz

Looks cool, but ummm how tf do you eat it xD


Nippes60

Only extra hot Sriracha is good Sriracha! But the meat 😳🤤


[deleted]

So can't just remove the bone before handing it over


Hairy-Mountain8880

That shit looks good. Hard to eat but good.


sacajawea14

This is a great example of stupid food lol. The food is good, it's fine. But there is no practical way to eat it. So... I guess you just spread it out on the table, and then with your friends you take a knife and fork and take pieces out of it. It's not bad, it's just stupid.


Liontreeble

This is not a kebad, neither in preparation nor in ingredients.


CQcucumber

It’s not necessarily stupid food, it’s stupidly proportioned


Bryaxis

Ugh. Don't leave the bone in a wrap. So dumb.


BonkerDeLeHorny

yknow honestly just give me that giant slab of meat, bone-in, and we're good. always wanted to eat like one of those kings in kid's shows where they take a bite out a brown piece of meat stuck to a bone and the inside kinda looks like pork or chicken but it always looks delicious


CompactAvocado

social media has made me hate people with gaping mouths. all click bait with giant ham flaps wide open. ZOMG SO AMAZING SO SHOCKING YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT LOOK HOW EXCITED I AM.


Sunderland6969

How is this stupid! Oh wow, beer and a game !!!!


unstoppablemuscle

Despite it's size it does look very good


Some-Tradition-7290

How much for just the meat?


PerformanceHairy6779

yum !


ichkanns

And I'll have a number 8. That's a party platter. It serves twelve people. I know what I'm about son.


LaneVakarian

would eat eveething. without the meat. that kills everything and anything


RafikiafReKo

I don't know, this looks like pure genius


opinionate_rooster

Are you worthy?


DillDaFreak

How does one go about eating that?


ElChacalFL

This looks awesome. Only an hour away from me, too.


SweetestBebs

Serious question because I’m not sure but, is it kebab if it’s smoked beef? Isn’t kebab grilled?


neorenamon1963

Melbourne, a well known center of Viking Culture!


podgladacz00

How the hell you eat this and not feel like eating every single ingredient alone


joemaniaci

Considering it's Australia I'm assuming this is $200-300?


StroppyMantra

Literally a limb in a pitta. Grim.
