Best meal of my life was in Vegas. We were drunk, as one is in Vegas, and decided to wander out to the Vegas sign and back. So we did. By the time we get back it's 3-4 in the morning (we didn't even start that direction until after they closed the irish bar we were at; probably around 2a) and we're walking around...somewhere. And then suddenly there's a damn Gyro stand.
So yeah, we're getting 4am Gyro's from a random stand in Vegas. It was amazing. Coke from a cooler of ice to wash it down. Drunk me eventually found the hotel when the sun came up and fell asleep happy.
Next morning we go out to the same area and the Magic Gyro Stand was nowhere to be found.
I think it was ephemeral; spiritual even. A ghost gyro stand that appears at random in Vegas to sate the drunken appetites of lost bachelor parties.
Damn I do love a good Gyro. And I can't make one as well as the pros can (not the case with steak and lobster).
Shit, I may have to change my vote. It wouldn't be my gas chamber meal or anything, but to just have someone show up with one that I had nothing to do with making, it's hard to go wrong there.

Anywhere I get one I have always gotten an extra cup of tzatsiki sauce, absolutely love the stuff. The combination of the Lamb/Beef, Pita Bread and sauce is just chefs kiss.
I used to visit my sister in Santa Monica back in the day. There was this place called the falafel king. They served Shawarmas, they were a Gyro on steroids. They used to load them up with Lamb/Beef, salad mix and Tzatsiki sauce. They had these deep fried potato crisps that were dipped in tempura batter, dude these things were the greatest gift from God ever, they would put them in the sandwich and give them to you as a side, man I want one NOW.
