Yes, the olives I mentioned seeing were in a series of plastic tubs in the
food to go section.

We bought a Gyro for myself and another similar item (hmm, they are not
really sandwiches...) that didn't have the lamb for my wife. We also bought
a pair that were simply the same bread but were spread with mixtures and
then rolled up. The one I liked the most had lots of garlic. I'll be off
to Namron and Bear's event tomorrow(Thursday). I'll try to find the menu
and give a better description when I get back.

I hadn't even thought to look for pickled lemons. I'll have to try to
remember to look next time.

There are several directions/recipes for pickled lemons in this file
in the FOOD section:
