Food and Beverage
Cypriot cuisine has been influenced by different cultures throughout history. Therefore, there is no dish that we just call 'Cypriot'. However, with slight variations from the original, the Cypriots have developed quite delicious dishes. Each dish has its own flavor, preparation and presentation that reflects the Cypriot people.
