Tzatziki Sauce
 

I'm addicted... always have been my whole life.

Anyone else?

(I'm not even Greek!)

Mmm...Gyros.....although I was told by a Greek girl that it's prounounced "yi-row"...good stuff. :D

Is the pronounciation close to "Year-ost"? That's the way my mom taught me, but she's not Greek. :D

STOP! It isn't my next meal time yet!!!

Glad I'm not the only one that loves this stuff!

The closest I can describe it is "Year-oh" singular and "Year-os" plural. I had her pronounce it a few times so I could burn it into my long term memory. She was happy to do so after explaining how she gets pissed when people butcher it and say "jai-roe". ;)

A kalamata a day . . . ;)

Oh jeeze! Now were' going to go in olives! Yeah Baby!

I learned to love gyros when I was a pastor at a church on North Clark in Chicago with a Greek restaurant next door.
I have a friend, who I have told that it's 'year-os' but he continues to order 'guy-ros' in a restaurant. I'm waiting for a waitress to slap him to his senses.

I think it's funny to hear the way people say things sometimes... The absolute best is the way people kill the Italian food.

What the F**k is a Manigot? I mean is it sooooooo hard to say it right? The vowel is on the end for a reason. Makes me sick to my stomach when I hear people in a restaurant.

Go order your Calimars and your Manigots, you friggin' fools.

Ok. Sorry, back to Greek food. ;)

damn,that's too funny i just had a giro when i was out running some errands.. love the stuff.. it's also called gas in some parts of the world..

You think that's funny. I'm broiling up some boneless center cut chops (as I type this!) with spices and then I'm going to let it cool for 10 min. cut it paper thin and make a sandwich with it. Mayo? NO WAY... you know what is going on that bread!

Ymmmmmmmmm Ymmmmmmmmmm! :)

well, you know. i used to eat that stuff almost everyday.. kebabs too and i mean the flat ones.. yum!

I bought a boneless leg of lamb... can you guess what's next on the menu?

;)

Trader Joes... they ROCK!

There's a TJ's in NJ?

I just had homemade Gyros last night, along with homemade sauce - YUMMY!

Now, if I can only get a hold of some Oktapodaki, I would be blissful!

Years ago, in the dark days, when I lived north of Detroit, I had a job for a while in Greektown - naturally, I "sampled" quite a bit. :D
(sigh) those were the days...


Oh... they pronounced it: Ye - roh (ye, as in Ye olde shoppe, and roh, as in fish roe)
