>>8210401
I haven't been back since. Which is a shame because the rest of the gyro was pretty good.
>tfw no good gyro place

>>8210405
Man look at those gyros

>>8210408
Go to Ramen Tatsu-Ya, it's fucking amazing.

t. aggie

>>8210425
Alright I might give it a go.
I drove by one place that advertised gyros but it also said free 2 litre of grape Fanta free with every meal so I didn't bother stopping.

>>8210405
Far out. How poor do you have to be where you don't get surgery for that? I would have a complex about that. Would take me years after fixing it to feel comfortable taking off my shirt. Poor bastard.

>>8210266
probably the best gyro i've ever had. bz grill in queens

>>8210399
this guy loves gyros

A Halal Guys opened near me. Are they good? Price seems decent.

>>8210303
>Doner Kebab > Gyro
Shawerma > all

>>8210458
Typically costs around $6-7k, and insurance companies won't cover that because it's "cosmetic".

>>8210597
so cal?

lots of hype but definitely worth a taste

just wife up some armenian/leb from glendale

For me, it is the Gyro, the best fast food sandwich.

This Greek place near me sadly shut down but I always loved their Titan gyros and fresh seasoned fries.
Only food in Ohio that has impressed me.

>>8210621
Mmmmm, Armenian.

I bet a gyro pizza would be pretty good.

>>8210303
hell yeah

Gyro master race reporting in

I love greek food but the only decent greek place in town charges like $7 for a gyro

>>8210266
Gyro places have been caving to the whole-multitude-of-mediterranean religions for a while now. Finding a good greek restaurant with christian ownership and use of pork in the gyro meat mixture is harder and harder every year. I guess the immigrants are just the other types opening the restaurant, or it's just not a good business model anymore for attracting the most clientele.

I love shwarma, and all things isreali, lebanese, and fresh, even vegan things. I love the marinated salads, fresh vegetables, and I want my tzatziki to be fresh dairy, cucumber, yogurt, and maybe some dill or parsley. I want the gyro on grilled bread, fresh, not from a spongey plastic bag. I like cucumber, onions, tomatoes, and not lettuce. Extra tzatziki.

But doner kebab? Lousy meat. Tomato sauce that might as well be ketchup. It's utterly low tier, and misses the point of fresh foods grown in regions where vegetables actually grow, as well as herbs. I'd understand if it was afghani, but it's not, it's turkish. Or the horrific canadian version? Oh the horror, sugary canned sweetened condensed milk based topping? *gag* The reason you all eat that crap in europe and canada is you never lived long enough to know fresh ingredients and proper greek restaurants. They invented the vertical spit first. And you certainly don't know the lengthy history of greek run diner food in America. Opa!

>>8212875
golden dawn pay denbt and go away

>>8212875
damn this post is saltier than the kebab I just ate

>>8212875
>Finding a good greek restaurant with christian ownership and use of pork in the gyro meat mixture is harder and harder every year
what in the fuck is wrong with your country when the gyros is not made with pork?

>>8210266
>Not getting superior laffa swarma.

>>8212973
grumpy poster was right about canada

our gyro is shit, one reason for this is because we are cucked by muslims

I just wish someone would take the gyroed in this thread.

>>8212875
>Oh the horror, sugary canned sweetened condensed milk based topping?

what is that

i'm canadian and i've never had anything like that

>>8213832
that's sweet sauce. ubiquitous on the haligonian donairs popular on the east coast and in Alberta.

>>8210391
Boo hoo, have daddy file a complaint and send you to a different school.

>>8212765
Damn that looks awesome

jiye-roh or yeero?

>>8210266
Haven't had a gyro before. How are they and where are good places to get one?

I live in South Texas if that helps.

Idk, had this saved on my computer.
Kinda wish I had a gyro rn.

Gyro is very popular in Serbia, i want a Greek husband like Akis Petretzikis

>>8213941
Depends what language you speak and what country you come from.

>>8214195

beef lamb and pork spirals with a tomato, onion, tzatziki, feta and seasoning salt top. Lots of oregano, basil and garlic in the meat.

>>8214231
Thanks, sounds delicious. If I ever get the chance to come across a place that sells them, I'll make sure to try one.

>>8210458
I have this. I just stopped exercising, and didn't bother watching my diet because why bother? At least if I'm fat it'll look a bit more normal.

>>8210303
ITS THE SAME THING

>no chips in the gyro

weak

So is there parlance for if a place uses meat paste or actual meat, or do you just have to look in the window or guess based on how much they seem to not give a fuck or focus on late night patrons?

>gyro
its called gyros you fucking cockgobbling retards

>>8210405
Mine are just as bad, and I'm a normal weight. Being fat as a kid screws your hormones and causes you to develop like this. Losing weight won't fix hem.

>>8214360
Gyros have pork and fries, better bread tzatziki. It's like saying that a club sandwich and a hamburger are the same thing.

>>8214541
it's called a kebab lad

How do you eat gyro sandwiches? Do you leave them in the foil?

>>8210600
>shawarma
its the same thing, the word derives from "cevirme" in turkish

>>8210408
Just go to Verts and call it a day.

How do you pronounce this? Like gyroscope or more like europe.

>>8214386
This. Those things are supposed to be eaten with chips in them.

>>8210425
Best ramen in the city hands down. I feel like Michi has fallen off and Daruma is catching up.

Also Kome is good for straight Japanese cuisine.

>>8210331
I like Feta, but it fucking ruins a gyro. It takes away all of the flavor of the meat and tzatiki

what i learned from this thread is that england and other countries that are cucked by too many mudslimes have no idea what an actual gyros pita is. if it is not mad of pork, it is not gyros. i'm glad the greek places in my country are still operated by greek people and not by muslims

>>8214598
blow yourself up ahmed

>>8210303
Fuck off, turkroach!

>>8214738
>this!

>>8210405
Boy harry potter sure let himself go.

>>8214716
europe

>>8214734
gyros are traditionally lamb

>>8214837
:D
harry potter and the moobs of scunthorpe

Made this today with leftover lamb from Sunday

Homemade chilli sauce and slaw to accompany it

greekfag here dropping some facts.

gyros is ONLY pork. If it has lamb, it's turkish gyros.
If it is minced meat, instead of pieces of meat then it's doner.

>>8210317
Places near me dump a gallon of tzatziki and load it with onions. I would kill for yours.

>>8210408
Holy shit Tulsa University??

>>8217252
Nvm that's not on our campus. Thought you might have been referring to a place near campus

>>8217252
There are more Tulsans here on /ck/ than just myself. :)

This thread made me go out and get a gyro today.
Fucking $7.
I hate this town.

>>8217108
is it one gyros two gyroi?

>>8217630
the "s" at the end of the word is not an indicator of singular or plural. it's one gyros, two gyros...

>>8217637
plural isn't oi/on/ois/ous in modern greek?

>>8217648
oh wait you're asking about actual greek? nvm then. i was more referring to the english speakers calling a single gyros a gyro

>>8210458
British healthcare. You have to wait 15 years before you can get scheduled for surgery.

>>8217802
>be military
>get NHS priority over everyone
Feels good, man.

>>8217637

How many gryii have you eaten at once?

>>8217828
>be not military
>not die pointlessly in the Middle East
>not get divorced or become an alcoholic if I survive.
Feels good, man

>>8217881
I'm doing fine, thanks.
The pension's looking like I can retire early too.

probably suffering from food poisoning somewhere

>>8210303
Agreed. It's the best drunk food or normal food. The only place that serves food within a mile of me is a doner and chip shop

>>8214601
No. You eat the foil. This where the flavour comes from

>>8215474

Fucking lardass Americans ruin fucking everything.

A gyro can traditionally be pork,chicken beef, veal, lamb or mutton.

>arguing about traditional gyro when even here in Greece they serve all sorts of fucking variations that are anything but traditional
>>8214601
You peel it off as you're eating it.

>>8221071
Go back and read what he posted, denbt nigger.

>>8210266
awesome idea I'm gonna order some Gyro tonight

>>8221085
Who, the guy I quoted? I told him to peel the foil off as he's eating the gyro since he didn't know what to do with it.

>>8214716
Yee-ross
Don't let yanks tell you otherwise.

>>8214716
