I went to the Mylos family restaurant the other night in the upper part of the village of Yialia and it lived up to its name, I was the only guest and I dined in one end of the large dining room - which in a previous life had been the village school - and the extended family ate with me next to a cosy log fire, an initially slightly daunting experience but I was treated like an old friend so was soon put at my ease. It was a lovely experience.
Jan and I used to enjoy the occasional bottle or two of Efes, a local Turkish beer when we went to Ali's Bar for a meal and to watch the belly dancers, unfortunately Ali's is no more. I have tried the canned Efes from Makro but it bears no resemblance to the real thing, you can imagine my delight to find that the local Turkish Cypriot shop here n Pyla sells bottled Efes and it tastes just as good as it used to, I now have a bottle or two in my fridge.
