Gyro

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

I just ordered one of these from City Bites and pronounced it "yee-row." The guy in the drive thru paused and said "you mean jye-row?"

Sheesh. . .Greek people say yee-row.

I hear they also screw sheep in Greece, but I don't see anybody doing that in Oklahoma.

Wait a minute....

[OhU1]

Yeah, it's Yee Row. I always get "corrected" when I order one.

Damn, wish I could have one right now. Thanks for nothing, I'm going to have my Hot Pocket and now.

[Dio]

All the best hillbillies pronounce it "jye-ruh"

[MamaMia]

I usually have a Gyro at the Texas State Fair. Gyros and beer, the breakfast of champions.

[IronSooner]

Why were you ordering a gyro at city bites in the first place?

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

Yeah, it's Yee Row. I always get "corrected" when I order one.

Well the tzakiki (sp) sauce was kind of gross (mayo & cukes only), so I've had better. This really was a jyerow I guess.

I loves me some good gyros. my favorite is Pita Pit. Double-meat gyro w/spinach, tomatoes, sprouts, onions, olives, feta and the tzaziki.

Dude.

Heh.

Mayo on a gyro sounds even more heinous than ranch dressing on Buffalo wings.

Seriously. Peeps 'round here thinkin ranch = bleu cheese. It's not right.

You from California, boy?

Sometimes getting proper ethnic food here is kind of like trying to get a chicken fried steak in New Jersey. I don't want some hill billy making my Moo Goo Gai Pan I want the real ****! Mayo on a Gyro, whoa.

Exactly.

I do not order chicken fried steak, Tex-Mex, or iced tea outside of Oklahoma and Texas. You're also taking your chances with Dr. Pepper.

tsatziki=yogurt, dill, and cucumber.

Ranch never made anything worse.

However, mayo on a gyro is just plain wrong. There's a place here called Niro's Gyros that makes a pretty good one...loads you up on tzaziki, it's good eats. I tried eating 3 one time and it almost killed me.

They even yankee-up Dr. Pepper?

[yermom]

you people succ

the Greek House is closed for another week or so

[mdklatt]

They even yankee-up Dr. Pepper?

Yes. Most restaurants have never heard of it. I was amazed when a Burger King in NE Ohio had it, but the fountain mixture was way off and it tasted like Cherry Coke.

Greek House is great. House of Greek on the corner of Main and Porter closed years ago and was awesome.

Pizza Peddler in Noble makes some pretty good Gyros for a hillbilly pizza establishment.

Agree to disagree.

Ranch dressing .
