Restaurant review: To Edesma tou Paradisou, Larnaca
December 8, 2022
As with most people, when I go out to dine I am initially drawn by the appearance of the place. Thinking an establishment has taken time, effort and care to impress with their design indicates the same attention and detail is reflected in the food. No matter how many times I fall for this and end up with disappointing food, I still get drawn in!
But recently in the centre of Larnaca I spotted an eatery called To Edesma tou Paradisou (Food of Paradise) written in Greek and the words ‘Cyprus tavern’ also written in Russian on a sign that had pictures of the food, and my immediate thought was that it was a typical tourist trap. There were colourful chairs and shutters and loads of umbrellas suspended high above the restaurant entrance. Something made me want to go in and try it out!
