I watch the pork gyro cooking on a spit.
The owner slices off some for my sandwich.
Pita bread has a fresh flavor enhanced by juicy tomatoes and crisp lettuce.
The pork is what makes this one of my favorite sandwiches. Tender and juicy I was amazed by the delicious flavors.
I was very impressed by how nice the owner was. He was working on my order and at the same time helped me take some great photos. Bring cash if you want to avoid the 50 cent credit card fee.
I had my first taste of Greek food when Daphne’s opened. My last few visits I wasn’t that impressed by Daphne’s. Zgara Greek Grill dishes were fresh and bursting with flavor.
2nd visit I tried the pork gyro plate. You get everything you get with the pork gyro sandwich plus a side. I chose french fries which were crispy and had a nice potato flavor, The plate is great for when you are very hungry. The pork, pita bread, and veggies tasted just like my previous visit.
3rd visit I tried the soulaki pork plate. Soulaki pork was tender juicy and had delicious flavor.
Rice was soft and moist with that distinctive flavor of Greek rice.
4th visit I tried the kofte plate. Mix of beef and lamb had texture like hamburger while the flavor was rich and delicious.
I found out about this place from Kirk of mmm-yoso!!!.
Cool neighborhood.
A few blocks away there was a Toys R Us.
When I was a kid I got to visit to pick out a present for either my birthday or Xmas. Later I would find stuff for my kid. Good times.
