Gyros
I obviously didn’t bake this, but since it is food related, I thought I’d still share it. This, my dear friends, is a lamb gyro. If you don’t know what a gyro is, click here. If you haven’t tasted one, you’re truly missing out. I discovered these in France though there, a gyro is known as a kebab or a sandwich grec. In Paris, my friend Elizabeth and I discovered the absolute best hole-in-the-wall (literally) stand where we could devour them for next to nothing. The man there put herbes de provence in the tzatziki sauce along with fries, lamb meat, onions and tomatoes and then he grilled the pita bread. The meat roasts on a spit all day long and each time a sandwich is made, the cook shaves off the outside (see picture for a better idea). Okay, now I’m nostalgic – I went back and looked at a few pictures so I included them. Anyhow, the only place to get a gyro around here as at the Ultimate Greek Broiler on State Street in Orem. I promise, it isn’t as scary as it looks on the outside. Yum!
