Five Star Gift Ideas

For a grandpa who loves gyro, you can put together a Father's Day gift basket full of Mediterranean goodies to complement his love for the delicious dish. Here are some ideas:

1. Gyro Kit - Put together a do-it-yourself gyro kit by including all the necessary ingredients like pita bread, finely sliced lamb, tzatziki sauce, tomato, onions, and lettuce. You can also add in some traditional Greek seasonings such as dried oregano and mint.

2. Mediterranean Cookbooks - If your grandpa enjoys preparing food, some Mediterranean cookbooks will be a perfect addition to his kitchen. You could include “The Complete Mediterranean Cookbook” by America's Test Kitchen or “The Mediterranean Table” by Sonoma Press in the basket.

3. Mediterranean Snacks - Adding delightful Mediterranean-inspired snacks to the gift basket will make it even better. You can include some Kalamata Olives, feta cheese, hummus, and pita chips.

4. Olive Oil and Vinegar - You can add a high-quality bottle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar to the basket. Not only are they great for salads, but also can be a healthy source of fat which is an important component for those following a Mediterranean diet.

5. Mediterranean Spices - You can add some Mediterranean spices to the basket like Za'atar, Dukkah or Ras El Hanout that can be used in a variety of ways.

6. Gyro-themed Apron – Why not throw in a fun apron with Gyro theme to make the gift basket more special?

By putting together a thoughtful gift basket full of his favorite goodies, you will not only make the gift special for him but also show how much you know and care for his likes and interests.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.
