| (*i did not take the above picture! This was from the google god’s, cred goes to NYCBlondieAndBrownie) JW1976 had been raving about Uncle Gussy’s for a while now, and it was pretty close to my office…I was getting a little tired of my usual stomping grounds so i figured why not? John‘s always had good taste in food, so it was no surprise that i’d venture out first to one of his favorites. |
| They have a really nice menu with quite a plethora of options to choose from. (There menu is actually on their website, click here for Menu.) |
| I got the Combo (Gyro and Chicken) with Rice and Salad, that comes with Tzatziki sauce ($6.00). I got mine with a Pork Souvlaki +$3 and Sweet BBQ Sauce on the side (Total is $9.00) |
| The chicken was really moist and juicy and in very big clumps. |
| the Gyro meat was very flavorful and crispy…soooo good. salad was really fresh. |
| I would have to say this is the best pork souvlaki i’ve ever had to date…i use to love this place in flushing for it that closed down…but this was really freaking good…very juicy, and maintained the smokey flavor really well. |
| It was a little hard to mix up cause the ingredients weren’t as finally chopped up as other places, but i liked it this way…it made it feel more like from a restaurant than from a street vendor…to me it gave it more of a classy feel. |
| Summation: Uncle Gussy’s was really freaking good. Things that you’ll notice when you eat it is that the rice is quite different from other street vendors…its very plump and gooooood. Salad is fresh, and love all the huge chunks of meat, definitely different from other vendors. Souvlaki very very good. Salad was fresh. Tzatziki sauce was really good and i just love their bbq sauce…All in all i look forward to trying other items off their menu…and though i’ve eaten from there several more times already….it gets really hard to stray away from what i ordered in this entry…..droool…i think i’m going to have to get some this week. 0_o.
thanks again John Wong. CHEERS! |
