go go gyro

when i saw the sign stating that there was a new greek place so close to my house i was stoked!  today ended up being the perfect time to check it out so liz, elle and i stopped in for lunch.  pictured above is my lamb & beef gyro (i picked off the tomatoes) with onions and a cool yogurt based dill sauce.  the flavor was sufficient but what i didn't like was the fact that it wasn't the sliced off meat.  instead it was ground lamb and beef combined together then cooked and i would have preferred the meet on the spigot that rotates and is sliced off just before serving.  let me say it was not bad but it wasn't what i expected it to be.  i didn't take pictures of the other items i ordered but i also got a bowl of lemon chicken soup with rice that i thoroughly enjoyed, it had a unique balance of flavors and the rice helped to offset the slightly creamy broth.  also not pictured is a cheese type dip that was the consistency of humus but had a little kick of spice that i liked.  i'll let you know if this place is a hit once i try it again.
