Modern Greek eatery GRK opened its doors in Sandton, Johannesburg in early July 2022, launching their menu with an exciting modern twist on classic Greek street food, with the introduction of an innovative gyro menu.

A classic gyro is usually made from meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie and served wrapped or stuffed in pita bread. The owners saw an opportunity to make the gyro the star of the show, however via the "new method" of cooking the meat. A method which was encountered by the owners in Greece five years ago.

The new method offers a product that is fresher and safer utilising only top-quality meat prepared and grilled on flat grills onsite. The meat is thinly sliced and then cut on open kitchen butcher blocks with custom made half-moon knives, unique to GRK. Although a different take on the traditional gyro, there is no compromise on that punchy gyro flavour. This method of cooking is cleaner and more sanitary offering discerning diners great tasting food, in a modern, upmarket, yet casual setting.
