London and Quadrant

London and Quadrant Housing Trust (L&Q) is a housing association operating in Greater London, South East England and East Anglia, based in Lewisham. L&Q was established in 1963.

History

The Quadrant Housing Association was formed in the London Borough of Greenwich in 1963 when 32 people invested £2 each to create a housing association. In 1973 Quadrant joined forces with another association, London Housing Trust, which had been set up in 1967. The merged organisation was named London & Quadrant Housing Trust.

Properties

L&Q is the largest landlord in Greater London.

L&Q own or manage over 70,000 homes in London and other regions of England, with an annual turnover of £579 million.

Properties are organised under seven regions:

Shashlik

Shashlik or shashlyk (Armenian: խորոված khorovats, Azerbaijani: şişlik or tikə kabab, Georgian: მწვადი mtsvadi, Persian: شیشلیک‎‎, Russian: шашлы́к, Lithuanian: šašlykas, Turkish: şaşlık, Kurdish: Biraşka şîşê‎, Hebrew: שישליק‎, Hindustani: شاشلِک or षअषईक), is a form of Shish kebab popular in Eastern and Central Europe (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Bulgaria, Poland,Lithuania, Hungary), the Caucasus (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia), Central Asia, Afghanistan, India, Iran, Israel, Iraq, Mongolia, Morocco, Pakistan, Turkey, Bangladesh and other places.

Shashlik (meaning skewered meat) was originally made of lamb. Nowadays it is also made of pork or beef depending on local preferences and religious observances. The skewers are either threaded with meat only, or with alternating pieces of meat, fat, and vegetables, such as bell pepper, onion, mushroom and tomato.

Usage

Even though the word "shashlyk" was apparently borrowed from the Crimean Tatars by the Cossacks as early as the 16th century, kebabs did not reach Moscow until the late 19th century. From then on, their popularity spread rapidly; by the 1910s they were a staple in St Petersburg restaurants and by the 1920s they were already a pervasive street food all over urban Russia.
