GREAT question. We do LOVE us some Gyros. Could care less about the fires in the states but over seas they are excellent.

hmm the gyros here are a mix of lamb and beef. What is the dutch word for pig so we can avoid it?

Kebab: (Originally Turkish) grilled vealmeat with spices. But they use other meat as well in some kebab places like chicken, turkey or lamb, or just a mix of crappy meat wastes and fat layers. Usually gets served in a pita or a wrap with salad, tomato, onion and sometimes garlic sauce (in NL) But you can also get it with fries or rice or whatever.
The Gyro is better ! Where i live there is a place that opened up about 3 years ago called "Gryo King " they are excellent they even give you a small chunk of Feta cheese , besides that place i always bought them in the Greek diners always great and with the Fries !

Varkensvlees is dutch for pork.Metalferrets wrote:hmm the gyros here are a mix of lamb and beef. What is the dutch word for pig so we can avoid it?
I thought the original "Turkish Kebabs" i.e. doner style, used lamb... All tastes good to me though!
BigRigRob - I like that place as well - always seems well cooked and fresh there.

My favourite subject, fella! I've even had a proper "Turkish" kebab (Shoarma) IN Turkey, so I can use that as a benchmark!!angry pirate wrote:

Wherever I go in the world, I always like to try the local kebabs, if they look safe enough and I see locals eating there!
I never have greenery on it, or chili sauce (bit of lemon juice now and then if the mood takes me), because I actually like to be able to taste the meat.
As for mayonnaise - yack. I'd rather eat dogfood. (And I have...)
