Okay – not Gyros in the strictest sense, but the premise is still there. I can buy fairly decent Naan bread here – its not NYC Naan, but it’s still pretty good. I am always looking for yummy things to put on the Naan bread that the whole family will eat.
We had a Grilled Chicken marinated in Yogurt, Lemon, Garlic, Rosemary, salt & Pepper along with veggie fixings and a cucumber sauce. Pretty tasty. I served quinoa and brown rice on the side – that was good!
