Gyro goes in a pita? Well, yes. But those flavors can't be confined to the mere sandwich. Steak strips, peppers, lemon, tzatziki, and briny, salty feta all shine when added to a bed of rice, just as much as they would wrapped in a pita. Keep an open mind, for once you have this meal, your stomach will be entirely full.
