Cyprus main courses

JEREMY TAYLOR: WRITER - TEACHER - JUGGLER


		One of the best main courses I had in Cyprus was at the Atima restaurant in Limassol. Despite a frighteningly bored waitress, the food was excellent: a succulent pork chop in a great sauce and some very interesting vegetables. Sort of noveau cuisine but with decent portions. Thanks to Marios, Leda and the Greek Cypriot teachers' union for the meal.
		In Pafos, I tried a simple taverna. Not a tourist in sight, just some excellent kebab, potato, salad and a beer - all for less than 10 euros.
		On my last day of training in Cyprus, I was invited out by the teachers. A yummy kebab and chips, washed down with a pint of local keo beer. What more could a man ask for?
		On my last evening in Protaras, I nipped out to the Astoria. Poor service, uninspiring food and he was overcharged. Not a place I'll be heading back to in the near future.
		Larnaca airport was pretty disorganised with a few flights delayed. I was lucky to pick up the meal combo, chicken and vegetables with a large side salad and a beer for 11 euros. You could pay that for a glass of water in some international airports.
