Haute cuisine in the mountains of Cyprus? I think so!

Meze is no longer the staple in the villages of Cyprus

WIZ-GUIDE

If you think haute cuisine is available only in urban centers around the island, well you're wrong! Meze isn't the only grub you'll find in the villages around Cyprus. And here are four restaurants in the countryside that are proof positive that fine dining isn't exclusive to the city at all.

Picture yourself having Dim Sum at Kathikas, Crème Brulee with soutzouko at Kalopanagiotis and wild boar at Platres. It's enough to make you drive the distance to experience other delicacies besides Cypriot gastronomy.

FARMYARD

Although the menu has a selection of dishes inspired by Cypriot and international cuisine, the Farmyard also has an incredible selection of Chinese & Thai delicacies. Outstanding Dim Sum, excellent lemonade chicken, authentic noodles. On your next visit to Kathikas, go for the extraordinary and try Farmyard, voted one of the 50 Best Restaurants in Cyprus on the WIZ GUIDE.

RENDEZVOUS

On the green mountains of Platres, you'll find, among other things, excellent food at the Petit Palai Hotel.
