Just Eat, the leading global marketplace for online food delivery, has found that throughout the UK, Italian is the nation’s favourite cuisine. However, in Elgin kebabs are the most ordered takeaway food, with one out of every five orders being for this Middle Eastern dish.

The news follows the launch of an interactive map by Just Eat that shows how takeaway habits in Elgin compare to the rest of the UK.

Graham Corfield, UK managing director of Just Eat, said: “The kebab is still king on many UK high streets, but takeaway trends are being shaken up by adventurous eaters looking to sample the hottest new cuisine and healthier, more conscious foodies opting for leaner options.

"Vegan is the fastest growing cuisine ordered on Just Eat last year, with orders growing by 1500% across the UK. We also saw a much bigger appetite for Cantonese cuisine and Nigerian food.”

1. Kebab

2. Chinese chicken

3. Chicken balls

4. Noodles

5. Pizza Margherita

6. Cheeseburger
