Artima (Carob Mill)

Karatello for the Meze

I quite like the Thatched Cottage for atmosphere and live music

Manzolino (expensive tho)

We did try the Aliada but were disappointed although the decor was great. Just not our taste obviously.

I was there last week. It was very good, there was a whole fresh salmon flown in that day from London. It may have been especially for the Cypriot singer whose birthday it was. Aparently she is very famous (never heard of her) but she was very pleasant..Loud applause erupted when she made her entrance, I initially thought it was for my host..

I've been to the Aliada a couple of times, the best part of it for me is the starter buffet. The main courses are an anti climax in comparison.

Yes the buffet was great. The small portions of meats brought after this wasn't anything like as nice. It is worth going just to hear the pianist!

Somebody mentioned sandwiches above. The sandwich has found its glory in Cyprus, at least back in my days. Do they still make them like they used to? Or have they gone the Greek way and bastardised the process with prefab filling in indifferent bread?

Purdey mentioned Petros in Limassol, any other sandwich people out there worth noting in the old diary?

A note about the most innovative sandwich man in old Famagusta. He had a mini kleftiko oven fitted to his barrow and was the first to offer kleftiko sandwiches. Innovation and appropriate technology and the result was bloody worth it!

Try "Il Tramonto" in Germasoya... (On the turn to Miramare Hotel)
