Look at all your neighbouring restaurant menus and then devise a menu completely different.

You can't beat a carvery, by that I mean one where the chef gives you the meat, then you select your own veg, yum yum.

depends on the time of year. In the cold winter months you can't beat a Cumberland tatie pot (google it)



In summer I like to have a salad with a selection of cold cooked meats, prawns, tuna, cheese with nice relishes and fresh crusty bread.

Re: Msg1,



chef deniz,



My favourite cuisine is Mediterranean: Italian, Spanish, French, Cypriot, Lebanese etc.



I have many favourite dishes - as long as they are authentic and freshly cooked from fresh ingredients.

Love sea food and fish.



In my opinion too many restaurants here are destroying themselves by serving British stodge, which is better left for the shores of the UK.



Cyprus has always had great food traditions - why to ruin the reputation and alienate people who appreciate good food!

I find for myself the salads are very boring. I would like interesting salads with nice dressings. Also mexican type meals ie enchilladas, nachos. Things a bit lighter than the meat with heavy sauce for a change.

Brinsley like your menu, hope your paying !!

my choice is as follows



Start with a couple of mojitos on the balcony then sit round a big table with your fav friends and have



2 Figs (freshly picked, or nicked from the tree next door) wrapped in bacon, stuffed with Brie and baked for 15 mins in oven



Individual beef wellington, 8oz of fillet topped with pate and encased in two pieces (squares) of filo pastry

served with roasted potatoes Basted in duck fat, Broccolli and Carrots (boiled in orange juice) and cauliflower cheese with red wine & onion gravy (made with a beef stock)



Chocolate souffle centred with two chunks of bournville chocolate on a sticky toffee sauce



Finish with a slab of Stilton with Carrs water biscuits (the big ones) and a bottle of my South African Jerepigo Red Dessert Wine ( a superb alternative to port )
