CYPRUS Food

Eating out to catch some local flavour is always the high spot of a holiday, but where do you start when faced with the Cypriot menu at your local taverna.

In the course of your stay it is quite possible to try everything but why not order a Meze and taste all the dishes at one sitting.  Share a meze in Cyprus and you have tasted the true flavours of the island, for you may be served anything up to:30 dishes. It is a complete meal, but, beware, don't be tempted to finish every dish that arrives on the table, or you may feel as though you've eaten for a week by the end! Just take a leaf out of a Cypriot's book and enjoy your meze 'siga-siga'or slowly, slowly.

If you are in a hurry, then you can find fast food in the shape of a pitta bread envelop, filled with souvlakia (kebab) and salad, but slow food is is more the order of the day in Cyprus.
