Gyradiko & Grill by Vangelis Takeaway & Delivery, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 8th March 2023 0

This is where they excel, specialising in over 20 different choices of kebabs. Gyros here is a choice of 4 meats, pork, chicken from Greece, beef and lamb from the UK, each cut into thin slices, layered and seasoned, and set onto big skewers ready to be imported. Vangelis said, "I spend a little extra, but I get the very best" ... I said "do you then add a little more seasoning" and he said "there's really no need", tbh, the beef Gyro was probably the best I've ever tasted ... Here's a link to their full Menu

To be honest, I wouldn't be anywhere without this guy! It was in fact Alex who told me I was doing it all wrong back in 2016 and helped me create this rsponsive, dynamic website. It took us 2 years! I finally managed to get him to sit down for an Inside-Out style interview ...

Speedy Gonzales Mexican Bar & Restaurant, Pernera

Tony Dynamou - 7th August 2018 0

The chef is of course Mexican with over 12 years experience, his specialities are the Burritos, Chimichanga, and an array of Fajitas ... but the menu is huge so you'll find it hard to choose, all served by the drop dead gorgeous scandi crew ... who'll serenade you on your birthday using the kitchen utensils as instruments ... it's just brilliant !

On that night they were joined by Andreas, their drummer, and as a trio, they go by the name 'Strings Attached' I really loved this gig so much, especially their covers of Fever, and Hotel California, so I grabbed the chance to ask Bill if we could get together for a chat.

'Presentation' is nine tenths of the sale and all I can say is when you see the quality of this team's work it'll exceed your expectations and you'll realise, just how good they are, and if you are selling Property its a must ...

Michalis Vrachimis & Yios Automotive Garage Ltd, Paralimni

Tony Dynamou - 1st May 2024 0

... At midnight all the lights are extinguished in the church and the priest comes from behind the doors of the altar carrying a candle. Walking to somebody in the front row and lighting their candle, this person and so on then pass the light from candle to candle and the light fills the church, symbolizing the Resurrection. Everyone then kisses one another and exchanges the words 'Christos Anesti' - Christ has risen, 'Alithos Anesti' - truly He has risen. ...
