1. Only if you tell me how to pronounce it right. I ain't going out for take

out if I'm gonna sound like an idiot! *lol*

[Shell Beau]

4. I hear Yuro and Gyro. I don't know

which is right. I say Yuro. :shrug:

[foo_bar]

10. my Greek friends say "Yee-ro(se)"

kinda rhymes with "hero(es)".

[Shell Beau]

11. I guess it

doesn't matter how you say it as long as they bring me the thing with cucumber dressing and feta cheese!

[foo_bar]

13. the Internet begs to differ

Gyro is probably the most often mispronounced food name. Even its fans usually do not get the pronounced correctly - whether it is mispronounced as "jee-rohs," "jai-rohs," "gee-rohs," The correct Greek pronunciation is “yee-rohs.”

6. Sorry. Same for me, but the gyro thought creeped

into my head and it won't leave. I called my hubby just now to tell him we are going to the Greek restaurant for supper! :9

8. I need to locate a restaurant that serves gyros in this part of town

Haven't had a chance to look, but today might be the day :) We were real close to one in the ex-house, but it was in a flaming red neighborhood, which is why we moved out.

The cool thing is, this part of town is extremely multiethnic and laid-back, so odds are good I shall have a delicious gyro soon! :)

[Shell Beau]

9. I hope you find one.

My mouth is watering for one right now!

3. Ohhhh man....now I am craving a gyro

and those stuffed grape leaves...dolamtes! I like the lamb meat, actually but I'll eat it with chicken or horse meat.

[Shell Beau]

7. Do you ever get the pita mots?

Not sure I spelled it correctly. But the pita bread with toasted mozzarella and dip it in cucumber dressing. YUMMY!

[Zuni]

15. no, but now I really, really want to
