Great video guys! Just a small correction: the Thing you called Cypriot sausage, it’s called sheftalia and it is minced meat with herbs wrapped with the membrane that surrounds the stomach of pig/lamb. Glad you liked our food!! Take care guys
Great video, I’d just like to add that Cypriot, Turkish and Greek Cypriots, are not the same as Turkish or Greek people, all Cypriots share a heritage, culture and traditions with eachother xx
So glad you enjoyed the Meze - the sausages are called SHEFTALIA. There is a restaurant in Larnaca called Melitzis that make incredible Lamb Kleftico (cooked all night in clay ovens).
lol how they be better than Turkish food? when their names is Turkish :D they all Turkish food too even they not change their names they just add - i to food. example cacık become cack -i there :D all of them turkish food :D
@@kayacenk4164 history books say Turks originally from the stepes of siberia/ Mongolia. They have olives, halloumi and vine leaf there? What about calamari and fish? What about kolokas? If some foods have a Turkish name it's because Greeks were Turkish slaves for 400 years. Anyway having said that can everybody agree that good food, good drink, good music and dance is the real international language that brings everybody together?
Nice to have you in our island. Thank you for your videos. At 8.01 this is a Cypriot traditional food called SIEFTALIA 🥰 I wish I have met you in person during your staying to take you for a tour to our villages and to have a lunch with us with home traditional food from my 80 years mother and to feel the spirit of our hospitality. My mother always treat our guests when gifts like almonds, trahana, raisin, jam and zivania 😍 Maybe next time. Just a kind suggestion. Your title at the end that the food in Norther Cyprus is cheaper with the word Turkey in brackets its not correct. Cyprus is an Independent Country as a whole. North, south east and west. Turkey is another country. Turkey invaded our island violating all rules of international law and norther part of our island is occupied by force. Big Hugs, stay healthy and be always happy 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Great vlog guy's yes the food in Cyprus is awesome the meat meze is excellent but the also do a seafood meze and the kleftiko is to die for cooked in the clay oven's anyway thank's for sharing looking forward to seeing your next video so stay safe guy's and thank's for your hard work in the editing process .
Cyprus was a Greek island. It's still being illegally occupied by Turkey. Northern Cyprus is recognized only by Turkey, a country which facilitates many of its contacts with the international community.
Hi! Glad that you liked Cyprus food! At 7:55 what you try is called sheftalia, like Jeanette mentioned in her comment. It usually accompanies souvlaki.
There is no North and South Cyprus. There is only the Republic of Cyprus. North Cyprus is a de facto state that comprises the northeastern portion of the island of Cyprus, which has no universal recognition . The Turkish Army maintains a large force in Northern Cyprus illegally and has occupied that part over the use of violence since 1974. But either way, I hope you enjoyed the Cyprus delicacies.
lol how they be better than Turkish food? when their names is Turkish :D they all Turkish food too even they not change their names they just add - i to food. example cacık become cack -i there :D all of them turkish food :D
Why don‘t you tell why Turkey has intervened in 1974 ? Are you scared to tell the world about greek fascist Enosis offending constitution of Cyprus and trying to ethnically cleanse turkish minorities.
Agree. We had a meze for three of us in Paphos. It was a full dining table that would have sat 8 of food. You made a reservation in the morning and the chef went to the market so what you got was fresh daily.
@@andrei-cosmin.popa85 Better educate yourself which side tried first to annex Cyprus and ethnically cleanse it. Just Google Enosis and you will learn.
@@samio4166 mate, I know a couple of facts: it takes 2 to break a relationship. Blaming one side has never solved problems. Most important fact is humans are ignorant. If Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots are too stubborn to realize they live on the island of Cyprus and they can't reconcile to live together as a pack of ants on this little planet, so be it. People are not known for wise decisions throughout the history, makes this just another random page in the book.

Brilliant video..mmm that food looked so good.Thought that sausage on the fork was going flying across the Restaurant like in the credits of Grange Hill Molly lol x
Hello guys, I hope you are enjoying your staying in my island, just have in mind that there is only one island, one recognized covernment, and a turkish occupation of the north part for 47 years now...cheaper destination?maybe but... illegal and against human rights...people are still suffering from the results of the turkish invation so be careful with the comnents...
@@samio4166 This isn't the right place for political comments. It's a video for holidays and fun. But we have to explain that the country called Republic of Cyprus and only in this way the country became member of EU etc. Cyprus is a recognised country.

Most of Turkish Cyprus are Muslim, but they eat pork and shieftalia. Anyway... the point is that some tourists travelled for holidays in Cyprus and they're trying to explain them that there's is only one country which called Cyprus. Believe me, i know many Turkish Cyprus and there's no problem between as. But the visitors have to know.

@@jrelena I mean the glorious Turkish Flag which you can see from the other side of the border tells a different story but you do you. The facts on the ground are clear there is an entity in the nord which is not part of your petty little state. We are Turks and we will have our Turkish state protect us. No matter what, the Northern Cyprus will stay turkish.
When you roast lamb for a few hours in the oven or spit roasted, and fully cooked, you don't have the smell that is there from lamb that is cooked for a few minutes and served medium rare. Most professional cooks don't know how to cook lamb properly.
You must definitely visit Famagusta and kyrenia in North Cyprus better food,better quality and %50 cheaper 😉the mezes you tried are peanut compare to Turkish Cypriot mezes😃 better quality and %50 cheaper 😉
It's cheaper, all right. Quality is generally lesser, and I'm being generous when I say that. Best food I had in that de facto state of TRNC is close to the border, in Nicosia or what you'd call Lefkosa. Mind you, biggest reason why everything's cheaper is because mama Turkey's high inflation as a result of poor decisions in regards to interest rates, which should not be part of presidential prerogative in this century we live in 🤣
lol how they be better than Turkish food? when their names is Turkish :D they all Turkish food too even they not change their names they just add - i to food. example cacık become cack -i there :D all of them turkish food :D
Sorry to burst your bubble, but turks, along with other balkanic nations messed up the original ottoman recipe. Not like it matters, we're all human and I reckon you also eat McDonald's on a good day lol.

wrong! because sheftalia is a minced meat wraped in caul fat
How to pronounce halloumi:The ou part is pronounced oo as in book or look not as in loom or room.

You are gonna have a fab time ❤️
@@dabbleandtravel I hope so! Been before but in February when it is cold amd not lots to do, but now… I will just taste everything 😍
Cyprus was a Greek island. It's still being illegally occupied by Turkey.

Cyprus was never a Greek island.
That looks SO good! It's been years since I've been to Cyprus, but I remember the mezes very well!
Glad you tried the meze guys👏👍👍
What a food feast Ayaia Napa is. You guys rock. Another great vlog as always. it never disappoints. Can't wait for the next one.
Thank you so much 😊

All it takes is a quick google of 'bloody christmas' 'enosis' 'eoka' to realise these salty trolls on here have no right to be the moral compass.
I am glad you liked it but i have to say thats the smallest meze i've seen in Cyprus 😊🙏
Whaaaat!!! That’s insane!

Will be trying this tonight so excited. Loved your video and making this our first meal out :)
Enjoy !!!! The owner are so lovely ❤️

We made reservations for tonight. Only had a salad all day 😅
Have fun!

Sure is
I like your blogs❤️

They look almost the same like the food served in Turkey. Anyway, they shared the same foods many years ago.

Forgot massacre and ethnic cleansing by Enosis ? This is the reason why Turkey intervened. Don‘t forget that. Remember who tried a fascist coup.
What is actually against human rights is the atrocities committed by the Greek EOKA terrorists and the Cypriot national guard. Google Cengiz Topel.

would love to know how much this meal cost ???
How much did this feast for two people cost ? Just curious. If I had to bet I would say more than $250.
It’s around €20 pp!!!

No such thing as south Cyprus. There is the Republic and the occupied 😢
Awesome food! I envy you guys.
Thank you for watching! 😀
With Brandy sour to go with it 😋
Have a fabtastic time
It's pronounced mezze,e as in egg , not mezay ay as in play.
Its called the REPUBLIC.. not 'south'!

The Greeks were ruled by the Turks for 500 years, the only food the Greeks know is Turkish food.
Reality is far from that statement, made by someone that has never been here, and never will.
um no most are byzantine dishes and libanese
Really? So what did the ancient Greeks eat since you weren't anywhere around those times???
You brought the recipes from Mongolia?
