Sweets of Cypriot cuisine:
Many of them are cooked with lots of honey and nuts. You will appreciate baklava - puff pastry with nut filling, poured with fragrant syrup, halvas - an analogue of halva and lucumia - sweet jelly cubes sprinkled with powdered sugar. Suzuko - long "sausages" made of grape molasses, inside which are almond nuts, very reminiscent of the Caucasian churchkhela. You can easily see that Cypriot confectioners prepare excellent pastries by tasting kadeifi - dough tubes soaked in syrup, mahalepi - sweet pastries soaked in rose syrup, and rice pudding rizogalo.

You will definitely like the national dish called "meze" - a platter of hot and cold appetizers, as well as cheese, various delicious sauces, etc.
Other traditional Cypriot dishes include moussaka, kebab, hummus, colocassia and paluzes. Fish, as well as meat and vegetables, are used here as the main product for preparing national dishes. Everything is generously seasoned with olive oil and spices.
And yet, amazingly delicious wine is made in Cyprus, for which ancient centuries-old traditions are used.
Dessert Commandaria is considered to be the best Cypriot wine, which is a must-try.

Thank you! They described everything so deliciously! Cypriots have a lot of Greek dishes, but they are basically Greeks. My husband and I in Greece were very tasty, I think in Cyprus too
I like everything. And as I understand it, Turkish sweets in Turkey, we overate them. Thanks again!

Meze - yes, a must have, but we will leave the fish and meat for Greece. Sometimes you come across a mini-meze, take it better, the usual of 16-20 dishes, normal people simply can’t handle it! Yes, and a mini of 12, also somehow, with difficulty ... Moussakas, salad horiatiki - “peasant salad” - in the Cypriot menu, it will most likely be written “village salad”, in our opinion, “Greek salad”, are also found everywhere.
Stifado beef, Stifado rabbit, are also Greek dishes, but Cypriots have long considered them to be their traditional ones. What's next? Keftedes (meatballs), kleftiko (mutton dish). Afelia - this is a truly Cypriot dish (from sivnina soaked in wine, with vegetables, mushrooms and potatoes). It doesn't happen very often, I don't know why...
From soups you can try Avgolemono - egg soup with lemon, Kotosupa - chicken soup.
I personally recommend Seafood Salad. Simple and tasteful. Basin for two from 7 euros. )))
Well, a snack - always please cheeses - Halloumi and Anari, olives, fruits according to the season. I really like ice cream - not in a package, factory, but homemade, sold on the street in balls, 1-1.5 euros. I recommend mint. And, of course, frappe (iced coffe)!

Frappe, yes, from instant, in the original recipe it should be. Nestle. It seemed to me that the Cypriots drink frappe more than the Greeks, so I wrote. Natural coffee, of course, is also available.

In Protaras, I tried dessert at the hotel: most likely it is some kind of sherbet with a creamy taste and hints of mint, a rather dense consistency. I don’t know what the name of this masterpiece is, but the taste is absolutely amazing, unforgettable. If someone, according to my chaotic description, understands what I mean, I will be grateful.

I will categorically support meze, very tasty and nutritious. But sweet pastries in Cyprus seemed to me very heavy, they are all soaked in honey, syrups, very sweet and high-calorie, immediately a liver and waist cap. It is better to eat it in a separate meal, in the afternoon or in the morning, in order to burn calories, and the Cypriots thresh it in the evening, and for some reason they are not fat. Frappe is a rare muck, it does not quench your thirst and tasteless. Fish dishes are good, no words. Bon appetit!

With great pleasure we devoured (I don’t remember which parts of the carcass) a young lamb - this is something ... Grilled vegetables were also served with it: a piece of corn, champignon, red and yellow peppers, eggplant, zucchini. And the potatoes in Cyprus are simply delicious. In the mornings, there were pancakes for breakfast, for lunch and dinner, either country-style potatoes or a large potato stuffed with mashed potatoes with herbs and garlic, and potato chips on top as a decoration, were served with the main dishes.
