…a Few of My Favourite (Cypriot) Things

Haratsi

My favourite kafenion – a traditional Cypriot café, is  “Haratsi” in Nicosia. This is specifically located above the famous “green line” of the city, the border between the north and south of the city. Founded in 1933, and open to absolutely everyone.
