Gyros is another popular Greek meat dish that is widely enjoyed in Heraklion. It consists of thinly sliced meat, usually pork or chicken, that is roasted on a vertical rotisserie. The meat is then wrapped in a warm pita bread and topped with tzatziki sauce, tomatoes, onions, and sometimes french fries. Gyros is a flavorful and satisfying meal that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner on the go.
