What is the restaurant of the lady who makes koubes? They showed her on RIKSAT a few months ago. I think she has the place in Nicosia inside the walls.

I know that too well Halil...my wife is an excellent cook and i am not ashamed to say she does the kebabs also..(mind you i light the charcoal :lol:). but here are times when we come late from work and there is no time to cook so we like to order a take away if we can.


we have no chance for take away ....nearest place is Gönyeli for us and it is 6-8 kilometers .
what i do ? bread +hellim +tomatoes and black coffee with 4 sugars :lol:


If you fancy a lahmacun or Inegol kofte or Sultanahmet kofte :lol: :lol: :lol: try gurgura you never know....some of them might deliver to your village :wink:

http://www.gurgura.com/


I don't like the Lahmacun , inegöl or sultanahmet not bad , I like them eat in Istanbul ....In original Sultanahmet Köftecisi place which is in Eminönü .

Be Sir Gurguramızda Galmasın be :lol: :lol: :lol: from where they find these names :
Gurgura,
Galbur ,
Gomşu ,
Kahkaha,
Guşonun Yeri ......etc.....etc .......

Bubbles, there are a lot of dishes that are "Cypriot" (both N and S) like molohiya and kolokas, but of course some of the food here has a Turkish influence such as simit, a hot crispy bread ring with sesame seeds, they can be on their own, or filled with Hellim or sucuk (sausage). My other favourite is Pide - crispy flat bread oozing with cheese (a type of pizza) and lahmacun, a very thin crispy base with lamb and tomatoes - you squeeze on the lemon, sprinkle with parsley and roll it up, lovely - specially when it all drips down your chin!!!! (not that thats ever happened to me of course) :wink:

Cheers Tess, they sound divine and so 'calorie free'! :wink: :wink:
