Jashan's has Three fully trained and experienced chefs. One specialises in European cuisine, one in Curries and One in Tendoori.!!!!



I do really enjoy Freshly made pasta.

There is a sign outside Guido's saying that Guido's is the only genuine Italian restaurant in North Cyprus (I think that's what it says). Guido certainly makes for a genuine Italian fella. So there you go!

Veni vici is a little close to the road, but you do have a view of the sea. The food is ex and you have very compfy seating. Not over prised as Italian food goes, but very tasty and well worth the visit, but then you need to go to Italy to get proper Italian food, and thats a long way for an evening trip! lol

The only thing about Veni Vici is that they are an Italian restaurant that doesn't do pizza!!!!



Guido does a fabulous pizza which is just as well as I really don't like pasta.

The Barrel Restaurant & Bar offers more than just the authentic European cuisine, our chiefs provide you with an original interpretation of the classic flavors from Italy, France and Spain. They also offer their own signature dishes that add a personal touch to your evening.



you can view our menu here: http://www.thebarrel.info/barrel/en/

and here is a map for the Restaurant: http://www.thebarrel.info/i/map.gif

Guido is an Italian, he trained as an executive chef he teaches catering as well as creating some of the best Italian food east of Naples. Go to Guido's.

Tried Guido's twice and didn't see what all the fuss was about myself. Also tried Veni Vici twice (although not for over a year) and that wasn't much cop either! Both were 'average' at best - just my opinion of course.



If you want Pasta then try Pasta Mania in Karaoglanoglu - NICE!!!!

we tried Pasta Mania in Karaoglanoglu the racist staff were more interested in the t/c customers we waited ages for a poor meal then were told to chill as we were on holiday !!!!!!!!!!!!!



if they had given us edible hot well presented food on warm plates we would not have needed to chill.

Yes Guidos is very average and do you want to sit by the main road with all the noise and dust.



We found Veni Vici much better even if it's not ' authentic '. All the Indian restaurants here are run by Pakistanis.

Does it matter ?
