Yumurta otu..?? Now, that's a name I have not heard in a very long time, or tasted it either. But I do remember it's dinstictive taste all the same. The picture brought back some nice memories....thanks.

A side note:

There's nothing worse than spoiling a nice picture of a natural setting than having a car in that picture that does not belong in it, so Halil, please only put a vehicle the picture if it adds value and enhances the scenery, otherwise keep them out...thanks.

At Kirni(Pınarbaşı) and Photta(Dağyolu) Villages they makes home made breads for the markets.

Kikapu,
How about LUVANA ,Bread and olives with tomatoes. This correct time for these kind of vegatables also Labsana and olives.
Almost every house in the villages are growing LUVANA and broadbeans.

Halil,

Donkeys are always fitting for any pictures taken in Cyprus, so yes, Donkeys are fine, but cars are not. :lol:

Luvana not sure about.???

I tell you what I remember as a kid that the taste and smell has never left me, and that is, a round Turkish Bread, Hellim, Black Olives, Juicy Red Tomatoes, Cucumber and last but not least, very sweet, pure red inside with pure black seeds, a Water Melon. Just sitting on the beach and eating these, is what Cyprus was back in the 60's.

I played in Famagusta as a boy,we knew a Turkish Cypriot family who we used to stay with.I remember they had 4 children 2 boys,2 girls.
We always had the finest food and the biggest welcome.I know they had to move out of Cyprus when the troubles started and there home was lost.I hope they found peace were they went..
