Our Six Year Old Is Transgender.

I am not sure what a spindle is, but I love a really good gyro.

You know, the spindle is the vertical metal rod that gyro meat is on. There are gas burners so that the meat gets browned before they shave it off.

This idiot is slicing tasteless gray meat into 3/16" thick oval slabs and calling it a day.

The fair here has a gyro booth that is set up in town when there is no fair. Same procedure. I asked them the same basic question. "Wouldn't it be better if you had an actual gyro setup instead of a deli-slicer, cheap meat and a steam table?" Same answer, "it's the same thing". I told him he had obviously never had a decent gyro.

I love gyros too. That's why it pisses me off.

oh! yeah those are the best ones for sure. Damn, there is one not far at all from me and that is sounding so good. I haven't had a real sandwich in well over a year. It is weird to think about how much money I used to spend eating out.

You need to move and get away from the boys round there.

Trapped.

If they can’t pronounce it properly they’re probably not going to make it properly.

The “G” should be silent and the spindle visible. Agree 100%.

With a big fucking knife!

God, I miss Nick's Gyros.

I always feel like a sellout when I try to pronounce it. I always think about news people saying latin words all spicy and embarrass myself. So I stick with 'Hero' generally.

Oh god, now I'm remembering my childhood.

There is/was a place in the next town that had a place that the old (Im guessing Greek) couple just made gyros and fries. Now that I am doing the mental math, I am guessing they are no longer there.

Like rolling your r's when ordering a burrito!

Hero works if you put the accent in the right place.

I was in the city today. $200 on groceries. Fresh figs!

Couldn't give them away here.

 

[Unclebaldrick]

Shit load of harissa, zaatar, naan, kalamatas, fresh madeleines, a decent baguette and some gorganzola.

The best thing about western civilization is our ability to recognize good shit and borrow it.

Or stick in a piece of meat?

It's a rotary grill. Fun fact: they were horizontal (better to keep fat from dripping off) till one guy/shop installed them vertically and people were like awww and ohhh that looks cool. Competitors had no choice but to follow.

Used to be my end of a Saturday night, 3-4am time for shawarma. Still eat it almost weekly. Not gyros (greek) though, but shoarma from Egyptian (is best) or döner kebab (Turkish).

You made me look it up. A Turk in the 1860s.
I do contend that the vertical spit allows for a unique flavor, allowing a thin exterior layer of the meat cone to fry in a manner different from the older horizontal technique. I hope that döner shows up here in my lifetime; stuff’s amazing good.

They love to tell that story. There's one döner shop for every 9000 people in NL, not including shoarma shops. Before MacDonalds arrived it used to be the only thing open till early in the morning, even in small otherwise completely dead towns. Shoarma mainly at first but later and nowadays mostly German-Turkish style donër kebab shops. I had no idea till I started going to Germany frequently. First time I was like look they get kebab shops here ‘too’.

How about now? Shoarma from an egyptian in business for 41 years. 7 bucks… x2 cause of the gas used to drive there and back. I’m picky when it comes to shoarma and will drive to other cities just to get it like I had it 30 years ago.
