Well, I ran out of food today, which means I had to find a new restaurant to go to! So I went to a place on Knoxville called the Mix. For those who have been to a Beef-A-Roo in Rockford, IL, The Mix reminds me a lot of that restaurant! They have some unique specialty items that they make. They have a drive thru and a dining room, however, their drive thru is generally open later than their dining room.
I got a "gyro burger" with tzatziki sauce all over it. (In case you ever want to win me over, some good tzatziki sauce will do the trick!) The gyro burger comes with the traditional toppings on a gyro along with all the traditional toppings on a burger. This is an delectable combination! It may not be the most authentic gyro meat or sauce, but it was good for when you are having a craving for that tzatiki!
I should also mention they have my favorite kind of ice. Its that super small cubed ice like Sonic has. I'm not sure if it actually is any better, but I do feel like my drink is colder with the smaller ice cubes.
I agree small ice cubes are way better! I love gyros and yes the tzatziki sauce is awesome; This is a place I am definitely going to have to check out. It looks and sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to agree with you and Chynna. Gyros are severely underrated in the realm of take out food. A good tzatziki sauce is key and easily the best part of eating a gyro.
ReplyDeleteI gave up meat for lent and all I can say is your posts and pictures are making me make a list of all the places I want to visit to eat. If I end up visiting The Mix I have high standards for an Italian Beef so I will have to try it out! Not a big Gyros fan after getting sick after eating it once, but the burger looks fabulous!
