Why it is called Craft

A gyros is thirty seconds of assembly and two days of preparation. We decided the two days should be the visible part.

The spit turns in the window all day. Nothing is carved before somebody orders it, which is why the edges are still crisp when the pita closes around them.

The vegetable tray sits in front of the counter, not behind it. Peppers, cucumber, cabbage, onion — cut in the shop, in daylight, where anyone waiting can watch it happen. The three sauces are ours: tzatziki on a yoghurt base, the Salsa Gyros with sweet paprika, and a cheese sauce that goes over the bowl.

There is a line on the window that sums the whole thing up better than we could: Más natural no puede ser.

Carved to order

Built in front
of you, in four moves

The bread goes on the grill

Ten seconds on the plate, so it reaches you warm and pliable instead of dry.

The meat comes off the cone

Only the outer layer is ready. That is the part that is carved, and then the next one starts cooking.

The tray, in daylight

Peppers, cucumber, cabbage and onion, cut in the shop and picked in front of you.

And the sauce you chose

Tzatziki, Salsa Gyros or the cheese sauce. All three are made here; none of them comes in a bottle.

Off the spit

Nothing
sits waiting

Carving in advance means serving something that has been standing in its own steam. That is the whole difference, and there is no shortcut for it.

Inside the shop

Nothing happens
out of sight

The spit, the tray and the grill are all on the customer's side of the glass. You can stand at the counter and watch the whole thing get built, which is a reasonable thing to want from somewhere you eat at three in the morning.

The tray in the window

Fresh is a place,
not a word

Everything that goes into a Gyros Craft pita is within arm's reach of the person ordering it. That is the only version of the claim we are willing to make.
