Eating the most popular food from Cyprus. Everybody here in Cyprus loves this meal, and it is not what you expect. You need to see and try it!
A day in the life in Cyprus, and a lot of adventures and fun things. I am driving to Limassol, fighting with some birds and do other cool things, and then I finish the day with a big and tasty meal.
If you like good, traditional food, then you definitely have to watch this video until the end!
The meal is called Meze, and it is a big mix of a lot of different meals. Salads, appetizers, meat options like souvlaki, sheftalia, halloumi cheese, chips, Greek pita bread and much, much more!
I definitely love the local food and that's why I got a local drink to my halloumi cheese and sheftalia. Let me know what you tried before in the comments!
The team at Meze Traditional Tavern Restaurant in Limassol was very friendly, and they treated me very well. I'm sure they will treat you like that as well. But of course, there are many other traditional taverns that offer local meze.
Make sure to subscribe for more awesome videos, and I will see you in the next one! :)

We had a Cypriot restaurant here in Philadelphia but sadly, it is no more. It was one of my favorite restaurants and I so miss the grilled halloumi cheese and the sheftelia. While similar, there are some differences between Greek and Cypriot cuisine. Cypriot tends to be a little spicier and some of the dishes are quite unique themselves.

As a Greek-Cypriot with many cooks in the family, I love both cuisines but yes they are different in some ways. I think Greek-Cypriot food is richer and has more of a smokey flavor (we love our char-grilled souvla and grilled halloumi) whereas Greek food has a more fresh and herby flavor and is more diverse. Meats and veggies are fresher and tastier here in Cyprus but Greece has more quality seafood, olive oil, and wines. So it's a tie for me.

Wow. I mean, wow. I was mostly watching your business content and decided to click something that looked a little more "vlog style," and what a surprise. It was an interesting day out in the city, but that Meze meal was more like a challenge. But you made it! (and what a great price!) And it looked amazing. Really amazing. I feel like I I first saw your channel maybe soon after you first moved there, I think I remember you doing a handstand and walking from the house to the water upside down, but after this meal...maybe no more handstands!

Hi Rico I booked a holiday to Cyprus with my partner from October 10 to October 18, we stay in Pahos, I survived colon cancer last year and I have already gotten a lot from your KZbin channel in preparation for this holiday. Only I am in a wheelchair myself, this has nothing to do with the cancer but it has been that way since birth. I myself am someone who also likes network. And I would like to know from you if you know wheelchair-friendly restaurants where where we can eat well because I want to use as many of your tips as possible but then we should also be able to reach the locations with My wheelchair, you could perhaps go into the wheelchair friendliness of the island in a video. Keep up the good work, I enjoy watching your videos

Hey Andrew, as I told you, I'll make a video about the food here. And I must say, I really enjoyed it a lot. I enjoy going out and just recording my day very much and it makes me happy to see people enjoy the videos. Either from Cyprus or from other countries across the world. Actually, there wasn't much leftover, I continued to eat for an hour, but I didn't record it anymore.

Yes we discussed that. You would be good at critiquing restaurants and service establishments. I use to in USA as I was in the restaurant/ resort/travel biz. I might try and do it again, but there are so many people out there doing that. You might have the upper hand. You can inform the restaurant in advance which maybe is more of a courtesy or go in unannounced. Food photos can be so colorful. In my opinion try and zoom in closely for each dish and also take some pics for the full table and affect . Good luck!
