Is a gyro a yiros in Australia?




It's yiro in Greek it's just pronounced wrong by everyone outside of greece. And since motherfuckers be getting all phonetic

A gyro [ˈʝiro] or gyros [ˈʝiros]

All these foods are shit compared to shawarma although it's more radicalized

Yup, my experience is definitely with the big tortilla bowl salad. My stepmom recently made a taco salad that was delicious, but she insisted it was closer to their 'authentic' taco salad. (She grew up in southern California and is absolutely convinced she knows everything about authentic Mexican cuisine.) I was pretty sure that the salad wasn't a particular Mexican dish, but I'll just keep it to myself. :smile:

I have never met a kebab from any culture that I disliked. Haven't had Afghani kebabs, tho; they look amazing. Heard good things about shawarma, too.

Oh, dude, it very well could be!

Salads originated in greece, 500 BC, but those guys conquered and imparted a lot across the world. Any culture that uses the thumbs up (near all), probably eats some sort of salad. I've just only seen salads in Americanized Mexican restaurants. :shrug:

I've met a lot of Mexicans and eaten a lot of their food, but anyone from Cali has probably met more and eaten more than I!

My give up. Back to OTD for me.

Kebabs are completely different in Greek cuisine. They're these:
Those are afghani, but it's the same in both cultures.
You guys call gyros kebabs because at one point, someone confused the two and it became normative (like we call the Aboriginals in our country "Indians". You guys are strange :lol:





We refer to those skewered lumps of grilled meat and veg as 'shish kebabs'.

I love yiros..yiroses...yiros's..yurii? Sex in a flat bread.
Every yiros shop in aus sell the tastefully named 'Abortion' which is chips, lamb and chicken. Covered with tsatziki and a shit ton tomato, bbq, mayo, sweet chilli, mustard and cheese. It's diabetes in a styrofoam container.
:shockandawe: but its so fukn good.

You know what pisses me off? Food truck tacos. Like, what the shit is this soft corn tortilla? Lightly toasted?! And you put cabbage on it? Get the fuck out of here with that shit.

I've, uhhh...suffered disappointment in life at the hands of a food truck taco.




Food truck tacos often times have the best tacos, you just have to find the right food truck.  Lime on tacos is fuckin diggity dank, try that shit out dude.

I don't mind the corn tortillas, sometimes they taste a bit funky though if they have been made with yellow corn, white corn is where its at.  I love flour tortillas though, they're the tits.

Anyway, gyros are good too.

OP, you can buy that sauce at the grocery so you can lather it on anything you want anytime, and I do mean anything. :naughty:

lol. Gotta love you Aussies.

We tend to slaver a chili sauce over ours.
My local 'chippy' serves a kebab with a sauce so fukin hot it hurts. I have to ask for the less 'chilified'  mint sauce. If I'm going to pay best part of £5.00 for some food, I want to be able to taste the cunt.

Gonna toast the Queens longest ever reign with one tonight. :grin:

bro I am greek and when I went to Greece a couple years ago...I lived off those bad boys. Here in America, they are not legit gyros. In Greece they are the real deal. Its all about the bread. Here in America they use tortilla wraps and such. That's no good.

Gyros are fucking delicious, took a friend to a place in the mall the other day after a little blunt cruise, he was skeptical.

Two bites in he goes "dude why haven't we been eating lambs this whole time?"

:lol: same here. I felt weird going up and asking the lady for one just how it was spelled "gyro" sounds like a sick fucking sex toy. I usually say it like  "euro"
