We also have plenty of places selling gyros. Not quite sure it's the same thing. Legolas Send a noteboard - 27/04/2017 07:37:56 PM

Partially because I'm not sure whether the American idea of gyros is the same as the Greek idea of gyros, and ours would be found mostly in Greek restaurants...

I'm making gyros. I can't explain how much I miss American versions of, well, everything. nossy - 26/04/2017 07:49:16 PM 1151 Views

Aren't gyros incredibly popular over there under the name doner kebab? *NM* Ghavrel - 27/04/2017 06:41:23 AM 446 Views
Spicing isn't the same. At all. Otherwise, I'd be unstoppable. nossy - 27/04/2017 09:05:20 AM 748 Views
Oh. See, I get gyros for the grease, the umami, and the tzatziki. The spices are secondary. *NM* Ghavrel - 27/04/2017 09:35:36 AM 453 Views
