But it gives me several posts to look forward to now, and yummy recipes! I've never tried to make gyros, but I love them, and I love the sound of the chicken ones...and that SAUCE!

You will never find lamb gyros and rarely beef gyros may be found. Gyros is mainly made with pork, served with tzatziki, onions, tomato slices. Potatoes are optional and instead of tzatziki mustard yoghurt sauce is also very popular.Ivyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12370053555998889434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567715590164266982.post-36816024835703382062009-02-20T19:48:00.000-08:002009-02-20T19:48:00.000-08:00When I worked at Columbia's Medical Center, there ...When I worked at Columbia's Medical Center, there was a food cart that made these and I haven't had one since.
