I will attempt again to revive this newsgroup by posing a question..

Can anyone tell me what the difference between a shawarma and a gyro is? I
believe that shawarma is a Lebanese name while gyro is Greek, so the
difference may just be a linguistic one.  I was in Ottawa last week and
these things were being sold everywhere -- unfortunately I wasn't in a
position to try one and find out, which I now regret.  I noticed one stand
sold both shawarmas and gyros, leading me to believe they may not be one and
the same.

I would appreciate if anyone could share their expertise about shawarmas,
which will save me a trip back to Ottawa to find out firsthand what it's all
about.
