Greek Gyros in Valby
Best gyros in Valby
We offer some of the best Gyros in Valby with delicious homemade flatbread that goes well with an ice-cold Greek beer on a hot summer day. We make our gyros fresh on a rotisserie and when we are at your place to make it, the gyros are made on the grill, so everything is homemade and made from scratch. As something special and new, we have put together a gyros menu, as gyros have become very popular and sought after over the years. In this special menu you get Greek gyros with both lamb and pork, which are delivered as catering.
In addition, you get several Greek dishes on the menu, such as seasonal salad, Hummus, tzatziki etc. You can see the full gyros menu here or look more closely here for gyros in Copenhagen
Gyros catering
We prepare the best Gyros catering in Valby. We have our own rotisserie, where the delicious Greek gyro meat is cooked. Here the gyro meat is roasted for a long time and is therefore completely tender inside but a little crispy on the outside. Our chefs can also come to your event and make gyros there, whether it is a Greek Christmas party, confirmation, wedding, summer party, Christmas party or similar. This way you are free to cook the food yourself and can focus on your party. Here you get “Pitogyro”, which is Gyros in Greek pita bread, but can of course also be made as a buffet. The solution with “pitogiro” is more fine and delicate, as our chef makes it based on his many years of experience and in this way you are free to make it yourself. You can read more about it here and of course we also have our other catering menus, which are also made as a Greek buffet .
Gyros made at your place
We can also make gyros at your place. Here, 2 of our chefs come to you, with their grill and equipment, and make completely fresh gyros on the grill, after which they roll the gyros so that they are ready to eat for you. As a rule, there are 2 gyros (Pita gyros) for each. Our chefs are at your place for approx. 4 hours where they make sure to pamper you with an authentic Greek “Gyro experience” just like in Greece, only even better.
The gyro meat is primarily pork, but by arrangement, gyros can also be made with other meats, such as lamb or chicken. There is also the option of making souvlaki (grilled skewers) and is a really good combination for gyros and can also be used as a filling/meat for pita.
Gyros with homemade Greek pita bread
As one of the few in Copenhagen, if not the only ones, we make our Gyros with homemade Greek pita bread. That is, our pita bread is 100% homemade, which makes our “pitogyro” more juicy and delicate. When we deliver the gyros menu, we usually cut them into triangles, so you can take the meat yourself and add it or just eat the flatbread next to the gyro meat. We can of course deliver the flatbread in whole pieces by arrangement.
The history of Greek gyros
Gyros is a Greek dish made from meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie. Originally it was made from lamb, but in Greece it is usually made from pork or chicken.
The word gyro or gyros, (γύρος in Greek), existed before 1970 and ended up replacing döner kebab for the Greek version of the dish. The word Gyros means “round” or “To turn around”, which symbolizes the rotisserie that is used to turn the Gyros around while it is being fried. Gyros has become enormously popular both in Greece and outside of Greece. There is what is called “Gyradiko” which is a shop that usually only sells Gyros and souvlaki. You can of course also get it in restaurants, but when people are in the mood for Gyros, they usually go to a real “Gyradiko” or a “Foodtruck”, where you can sometimes also hear Greek music while enjoying your Gyros. Drinks that are typically drunk with it are a cold Greek beer , typically Mythos , Fix or Alfa.
