Gyro
Gyros are a Greek dish, traditionally made with lamb that is cooked on a spit. The meat is then thinly sliced and served on a pita with tomatoes, onion, and tzatziki sauce.
Gyros are thought to have originated in the city of Constantinople in the late 19th century, where they were sold by street vendors. The dish quickly gained popularity and spread to other parts of Greece and the Mediterranean.
In the early 20th century, Greek immigrants brought gyros to the United States, where they opened restaurants and food trucks. The popularity of gyros continued to grow, and today they are enjoyed by people all over the world.
