Dear all,
What is the better way to explore new culture than eating local dishes and tasting local wines?
My parents recommended us Tony’s Tavern, a local restaurant near to us. It seemed to be very popular among Cypriots, as we were only tourists there. Yet, they took positively our presence at the place and warmly welcomed us to visit their restaurant again. The owner’s wife had similar name as our daughter and we had great chat about international names in the Finnish culture and our expectations of Cyprus.
The owners recommended us moussaka and kleftiko because the dishes were considered their bravuras. Is it hard to guess what we took?😜
Moussaka (potato-based dish including ground meat, eggplant and top layer made of milk sauce thickened with egg).
Kleftiko (marinated lamb slowly cooked in oven with olive oil, garlic and onion).
All the best,
Sulimur
