| Cottage cheese and sour cream are available at the main Hur Deniz shop in Girne (although not cheap). Instead of sour cream use the Russian 'smetana' which is becoming more readily available as more and more Russians move here - Russians cannot live without smetana. |

| Don't miss any of all that fatty, unhealthy stuff. Enjoy the local food, simple, and wholesome and much more tasty than all the manufactured stuff we have to put up with these days in U.k |
