What is the cuisine?
Moussaka is known for its Greece roots but the Cypriot recipe of making individual moussakas in terracotta pots is something to be tried. Barbecued Halloumi cheese made under the grill is another favorite of the Cypriot population. No visitor to Cyprus should leave without trying the delicious okra stew. Brandy Sour is the known drink of Cyprus as it combines local brandy with the fresh tang of Cyprus lemons. Limassol is famous for its Carnival celebrations and processions and seasonal favorites can be found such as pastry bourekia filled with mint flavour cheese and ravioli. Also sticky sweetmeats such as daktyla and kandaifi.
