There are many reasons for a person to invest in North Cyprus property, not least the consistently inconsistent British weather which cannot compare to the 300 days of sunshine Cyprus receives per year on average. Anyone wanting to buy a house in the Northern section of the island should enlist the help of a trusted North Cyprus estate agent, with a proven track record in the field.

There are a few options for why you might speak to estate agents about a possible purchase in North Cyprus; firstly you could be hoping to own a second home for use during holidays, or perhaps you want to use your new property as a letting investment, finally, if you're not wanting a combination of option one or two, you might actually want to relocate to North Cyprus.

Whether you are hoping to the spend the rest of your life or just a few months of the year in the beautiful climate Northern Cyprus offers you will be pleased to know that the food on offer in this region is delicious and greatly benefits from it's cosmopolitan history. Turkish and Cypriot cuisine is combined with Syrian and Egyptian influences, whilst it would also not be too surprising to find Italian dishes on the menu. North Cyprus estate agents like Boray Developments can provide you with advice on the island hot spots and the best restaurants, but here are a few things you might expect to see on a Cypriot menu list:

1. Often meals are preceded by appetisers locally referred to Meze. These include a combination of foods such as feta cheese, olives, artichokes, tomatoes, ham, octopus, bread, celery etc. Normally you wouldn't be expected to finish each dish, as doing so might leave you rather full for your main meal.

2. Meat served in North Cyprus includes lamb, beef, veal and chicken.

3. Examples of main meals are moussaka, kebab, ravioli, lamb stew and fresh fish.

4. Desserts are heavily fruit-based; watermelon, oranges, lemons and limes, pomegranates, plums and figs. Some locally derived desserts you will see are baklava and kedeifi.

5. Wine is of excellent quality in Northern Cyprus, particularly renowned for it's dessert wines.
