Dinners and Theme Nights

The Taverna and discovering the Meze

There are the informal tavernas which will allow visitors to experience Cypriot cuisine  and meze - the cornerstone of any visit to Cyprus.

The word meze is short for mezedes meaning “little delicacies” and consists of a succession of many dishes which are shared by all guests on the table.  As most meze menus number over 18 different dishes, the central concept is to sample a variety of different specialities in a relaxed setting - it is not an endurance mission!

Meze can be either based primarily on meat dishes or fish each time with dips, salads, appetizers and accompanying dishes.

 There are also restaurants with international cuisine for more sophisticated and elegant evening dinner

 Memorable dinner venues can include archaeological sites, wineries and village squares

 

Theme Nights

We create tailormade experiences for your group's special evening..

Artisan Corner with demonstrations of various traditional activities such as icon-painting, coffee readers, pottery, basket weaving and others

Folkloric dancers and live music to entertain the guests and encourage their participation. Guests may well wonder if they have drunk too much Zivania (Cyprus schnapps) when a dancer balances up to 30 small glasses on his head while moving to traditional rhythms.
