Northern Cyprus Cuisine
Cypriot cuisine has been influenced by various cultures throughout history. For this reason, there is no single dish that can be called "unique to Cyprus"; our current cuisine has been formed as a result of the blending of many cultures. Cypriots have created extremely delicious dishes, although they differ slightly from the original recipes. Each dish has its own unique taste, cooking method and presentation that reflects the character of the Cypriots. For example, the Arab-origin 'Molihiya' dish reveals the style of the Cypriots with its preparation, taste and presentation. The preparation, taste and presentation of some dishes vary by region. Northern Cyprus is a paradise for those who enjoy eating. There are many options from vegetable dishes to grills, pastries to fish and soups, kebabs to lahmacun and pide. Many varieties such as appetizers, desserts and cakes can be consumed both as a starter before and after a meal. In addition to local flavors, Chinese, Italian, French and Indian cuisines are also expertly served in various restaurants.
