Learn Greek Food and Drink vocabulary is key...

...if you plan to head for the mountains

Cyprus meze

Whilst most restaurants, bars and hotels have plenty of English speaking staff, it is always useful to know a few Greek words when you are eating out.
So it's good to learn greek food and drink vocabulary.

And if you head inland for lunch in one of the mountain villages, you may well need some of these words as many villagers do not speak any English at all!
