Have you ever tried Gyros?
-
As a Turkish person, tasted it in a Greece cafe in Serbia. 10/10 perfect.

I had "gyros" first when I lived in nyc but whatever they're putting there is total trash and I thought it was average at best. But gyros in Greece is on another level. The way it should be done and one of the best street foods out there
-
Thank you for the nice video about the most popular street food in Greece 👍

Kudos to you for being the only foreigner I've heard pronounce γύρος correctly

Gyros is so big in Greece, i just stumbled upon this youtube video while eating gyros lol! For the first timers, When you order a gyro, you say i want 1)a pita with 2)type of meat( pork or chicken gyro, or pork/chicken skewer or beef patty or sausage) and 3) toppings (tzatziki or mustard sause, tomatos, onions etc). The standard version is: For pork meat: tzatziki sause, tomatos, onions and fries (if it is a traditional place they may not add fries and you may need to say you want them as extra topping) For chicken meat: mustard sause, tomato, lettuce and fries (same rule about fries) So now you know you can either say for example I want a pita with pork gyro and with everything (standard version) or you customise it.

Gyros styles vary from region to region, city to city. The size, sauces, condiments, and spicing can vary greatly. Up north in Thessaloniki they put ketchup and mustard! Heathens 😂

I remember my vacation on greek islands at Lefkada , I was just 20 & enjoyed souvlaki & greek pastries so good with cheese 😊❤

In northern Greece (thessaloniki/makedonia etc ) they serve different versions of gyros, in thick bread and with many other different types of sauce as well, p.ex. with cheese (tirokafteri), with various types of spice etc etc

I'm a native Texan, but the gyros I've had (with tzatziki) at Greek restaurants have been among my very favorite foods. I could be mistaken, but I thought the gyros I've had were made of lamb.
