When I was around twenty years old, our dad went on a kick making homemade gyros all the time at home and at his firehouse. He started getting into making his own tzatziki sauce and gyro meat—so much that we were dropping it off at family and friends’ houses because he just wanted everyone to try it. He even had a crazy idea to open up his own gyro shop in our hometown! —Kaley
