Meeting new friends requires the perfect taverna, and @foultoumeze was a hit! They also introduced a new menu, you can screenshot at 0:17' seconds for prices or just go for the €24 meze! We went with alacart! Thanks Chef @yiagkoullis for taking extra care of my new pals, you'll definitely be seeing them here again! 💯 #cypruseats

Undoubtedly one of the most famous dishes you’ll find at a Greek Taverna, but also the easiest to make at home! A dish with distinct Ouzo notes that travels you to Greece every single time Ingredients : 100ml Ouzo 12 1 leek 200gr mushrooms 1 knob butter 300gr orzo 500ml stock Extra boiling water (Olive oil, salt, paprika) Method : We fry the leaks and mushrooms separately and out aside. We then slightly fry 6 medium-sized prawns with salt anf paprika, adding 100ml of Ouzo12. Flambé it will bring a nice chargrill texture. Keep frying till they caramelise, you can easily put out the flame with a simple blow. We slightly fry the Orzo to keep it from becoming mushy and gives it flavor too! Add 500ml of stock or water. Extra water may be needed as per cooking preference. #OuzoRecipe #OrzoPasta #MediterraneanFlavours #CyprusEats #EasyDinnerIdeas #Ouzo12 #GreekInspired

When lunch tastes like your yiayia’s cooking and even more! @ethimo_restaurant just dropped a lunch menu that blends old-school Greek flavours with modern finesse. With a few daily surprises, a standout Smirneiki Refithada, and a carefully curated menu with options for everyone, this just could be my top rated lunch spot right about now! Classy, cosy, and consistently on point.📍Nicosia, Vasileos Pavlou 13, +357 22 494449 #Ethimo #LunchInNicosia #GreekFoodWithSoul #CyprusRestaurants #CyprusEats

NEW GEM 💎ALERT (ok it's been around for 2 yrs, but new to me) You saw in my stories this Greek Taverna and it's places like this that get me excited and can't stop yapping about. I felt like I strolled into a random restaurant in Greece and had the most unexpected dinner. This is @tode_ti_ Open from Tuesday to Thursday from 6pm to 11pm with Rembetiki Music on Tuesdays Friday and Saturday open from 1pm to 11pm with Music on Saturdays Sunday open for lunch from 1pm to 4pm Make sure you reserve for peak hours because it tends to fill up fast #cyprus #cypruseats #nicosia #greece #greekfood #greekcuisine #🇬🇷

With their cool outside deck seating area, @topikamezebar is the perfect spot for the transitioning from summer to fall season in Nicosia. It was the perfect space to meet up with our friends from @cyprustourism to catchup with all the summer gossip and share the best Mediterranean / Cypriot dishes on the island. Everything we ate and how much it cost is all in the captions of the reel! Highly recommend 💯 #MediterraneanFlavors #CypriotTwist #LocalIngredients #SharingDishes #VegetarianOptions #TraditionalDesserts #Uniquecocktails #NicosiaRestaurant

About last night at Nicosia's latest entry and hotspot at @ethimo_restaurant After weeks of seeing various stories on my social media, in a last minute decision with a group of friends, pulled some strings and managed to get an early 7:30 table at Ethimo! Place soon enough filled up by the time our appetizers started to arrive Its a simple menu, but all round great choices that everyone will definitely find something they would like. The main theme of the restaurant is Mediterranean cuisine, but saying that, don’t confuse it with other Mediterranean restaurants offering a mix of cuisines. Ethimo is Greek food at heart. Every dish had an element of greek flavors The must try dishes for me where the Tomatinia Salad! Yes a salad 🤯!!! The Mavros Xeiros, Wild Mushroom Manestra, Pitta stin Thraka and Trayana are instantly my favourites and will find it hard not to order again, but I do want to try more of the menu Final verdict : No it’s not the same as other restaurants, they have managed to pull of a menu that’s unique to them in a vibing environment with absolute great service! Food arrived in a timely manner and even though it was a full house - the waiting staff always checked in on us if everything was ok! #nicosia #cyprus #cypruseats #ethimorestaurant

Looking for that summer garden with greek meze? Well @kritamo_mezedotexneio is just that place. Greek meze dishes but also al a cart menu items from 2 menus, the standard all year round menu, and the elevated modern twist to greek food menu that will change according to season. Watch the full reel with captions to see what I ate Once again chef @argie_pap93 has done an amazing job combining traditional flavours and mixed them up with modern techniques. Everything you saw in the reel is amazing, but the kolokokiftedes are a must, as well as the traxanokeftedes and accompanied by that warm halloumi cheese with tomato jam 🤤🤤🤤 Even though the garden area is large and walk-ins are welcomed, I would suggest to make a reservation. Here's the number to save you from searching 📞 22497539 Oooh and there's a huge free parking space opposite the restaurant, I know that's a major advantage when choosing a restaurant to go to #greekfood #meditteraneanfood #cyprus #nicosia #loveit

Did you @beba_restaurant yet? 🤤 #greekfood #finedining #mediterraneanfood #beba #nicosia #cyprus #cypruseats

So now at @mayiopoula we have 2 new separate menus, the new lunch menu by @siantris79 & the dinner menu by @andrew_tzo which I'll be trying soon also. @siantris79 operated in old town Nicosia, but now found it's new home at @mayiopoula and available weekdays for lunch. Mayiopoula now serves you classic lunch choices like Louvi, Fasoles, Afelia, Pasta with beef and that lamb with those traditional extra crispy sticky oven potatoes 😋 More menu items are available daily so follow their social media to be informed of menu items. The food is exceptionally good as you would expect from this well established restaurant. Portions are big, so I suggest sharing as to try more of each dish. I can't recommend just one dish as they all were unique between themselves. Now I'm hungry again 🤤 See you soon Mayiopoula 🫶🏻 #mayiopoula #cypriotfood #medditeraneanfood #greekcuisine

What another great find in the heart of Nicosia @topikamezebar is! Topika (meaning Local in greek) gets it's name from the concept of the restaurant. All ingredients are local and home grown either from their own plot in Flasou village or neighbouring farmers. These are all used to cook up some tasty, fresh and unique dishes. The dishes are so well balanced between each other, I would recommend getting various from the starter section, 1-2 fresh salads to share and a couple of fish dishes and 1 meat dish. Finally had the most delicious home made Baklava Cheesecake that was the special of the day. I got a couple of DM's to try some more desserts, but I'll save those for another day! Btw, the cocktails here are so refreshing with vibes of summer flavours All in all, @topikamezebar is highly recommended without a doubt!!! Make sure to make a reservation because, it's Nicosia's best kept secret... Till now! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #cypriotcuisine #greekfood #medditeraneanfood #meze #cocktails #bestfood #cyprus #nicosia #🇨🇾

New in Town is @olio_cy and boy was this a pleasant surprise. With views from Nicosia's 360 tower, overlooking Stasikratous street & the chilled atmosphere, well its this winters go to place 💯 I'm just goona talk about the show stopper in this post.... The steak!! Just look a it 🤤 cooked to perfection, and served with truffle oil that you sprinkle yourself with some herb stems. Two or more can share.... But next time Im having just for me, and then going straight to dessert. Again, just order all the desserts and share, it's more fun that way! We had so many plates to share and all were better than previous. Will definitely show off some more dishes in the future. I suggest the grilled prawns (see next photo), they go well with steak 😋 Also had dishes/sides like "revithia" "pamies" & baked aubergine #newrestaurant #oliocy #steak #prawns #meditteraneanfood #finedining #greekfood #hotspot

Today I've got you some dessert recommendations from @foultoumeze First tried their Pistachio Kateifi last year and I went completely nuts 🤪Pun intended. Now they've taken a twist on it and made a Nutella with Crunchy hazelnuts version. Its a must for all chocolate lovers out there. Finally they have also added a portokalipitta to the mix, and even though its seems I didn't make a big deal out of it during my stories last week... It's the dessert ill 💯 be ordering again, alongside the other 2! So my recommendation is to go with three other friends, have your souvlakia, or whatever else you desire, and order all 3 to share!

Another new entry during covid times, is @palaia_elia Attempted to go twice but stood impossible during these times, so now was my chance. The cuisine is I would say a mixup between Greek & Cypriot food. Each dish is beautifully presented so its a joy just to see whats placed infront of you. You'll see steak to sheftalies, lamb shank & sausages, classic souvlaki & ravioli. Its a big menu so you'll definitely find something to your likings. The desserts are creations by a well known Cypriot pastry chef... These are one of the best on the island. Check out the "Papa" in the photos on the right 👉🏻 Palaia Elia is perfect for friends gathering on these cool Nicosia evenings. Make sure you make a reservation, you won't want to miss this one 🤤 They also do live music nights so check their instagram & facebook DM me for more info #greekfood #cypriotfood #mediterraneanfood #meditteraneandiet #letseat #onthetable #meze #finedining #yougotthatyummy #🤤

My favourite new dessert in Nicosia by a FAR! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @foultoumeze Kadaifi with 🍋 Light Lemon Cream, Roasted Pistachos & Mastique ice-cream. This is served WARM which makes it a whole lot more exciting 😋 Swipe to second video (🔊sound on), and hear the crunch of that crispy kadaifi, and the perfect balance of honey/syrup, the generous amount of pistachios and creamy masticha. The food is always is TOP, as I've been here before, but the desserts are new additions from chef @yiangoullis Also had a nice piece of portokalopitta with cream and pistachios also! Will be going back for more and more. 🤤 #kadaifi #dessert #desserts #dessertporn #desserttable #dessertlover #instadessert #desserttime #dessertstagram #dessertoftheday #dessertsofinstagram #dessertgram #dessertlovers #dessertbuffet #dessertmasters #instadesserts #dessertfirst #dessertpic #dessertbae #dessertlove #homemadedessert #tastydessert #dessertheaven #eatdessertfirst #dessertstory #dessertable #dessertgoals #dessertgasm

Foul (full) tou meze does exactly what the name suggests. The meat smorgasbord at @foultoumeze is the true definition of #meatporn. The star dish is the Traditional Creatan Antikristo Lamb. Perfect location for these nice Nicosian summer nights.
