Cypriots would tell you, "Food is the food of love, so eat on." The Cypriote love of food is well known amongst Cypriots and all those that ha¬ve visited this beautiful, histo¬rical island. They take their cuisine very seriously, not just through their thoughtful preparations but more so their passion for entertaining friends and family. Most Cypriot homes will possess a large dinner table, laid to the brim with at least twenty dishes or more lo tanta¬lize guests long into the night. These key elements go hand in hand to make a Cypriot supper a feast to behold. Located between Greece, Turkey, the Middle East and Africa, Cyprus is an island well placed on the map for its cuisi¬ne to have absorbed the flavors from a cross section of the fascinating cultures. In fact, many have claimed the hand of Cyprus over thousands of years, leaving behind their town stamp or mark, including the Venetians, Romans, Greeks and Turks. This is what makes the Cypriot cuisine what it is today. A marriage of flavors culminating in to a rich, vast cuisine.Dengiz Kursat <info@cyprus-northern-property.com>Sat, 17 May 2008 10:26:46 GMThttp://www.cyprusnorthernproperty.com/cnp/northerncyprusguidedetail.aspx?ID=22North Cyprus - The Turkish Lira.
