Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....

Sara, from the Tai restaurant in Lapta had called yesterday to say that they were planning to open up for the season today. This is a nice, local restaurant which is built on the upper terrace of their village house and for this reason they can only operate in the summer when the evenings are nice and warm. So we arranged to go there with Richard and Paul to give them some opening night support. Around about 6 p.m. the wind started to blow quite hard, but what the heck we had promised to go. Oh boy! we had trouble keeping the garnish on the plates, but despite this we had a good meal and could only laugh about it all. We all admitted that getting back to our house and having coffee etc indoors was a welcome opportunity to get some warmth back in the old bones.
