Celebrate Tradition at the Resi Festival

Discover the Flavors of Cyprus

Join us for a wonderful day in the charming villages of Pano Kivides and Letymbou to celebrate 'Resi', one of the most iconic and traditional dishes served at Cypriot weddings. This festival is a fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in local culture and taste a piece of culinary history.

What is Resi?

Resi is a unique, slow-cooked delicacy primarily found in the Pafos and Lemesos districts. The preparation is a labor of love: goat or lamb is simmered in a large cauldron over low heat until perfectly tender. Wheat is then added to the mix, continuing the slow-cooking process until the meat and grain meld into a rich, creamy, and truly heavenly dish.

What to Expect

Beyond the incredible food, the festival offers a vibrant atmosphere filled with local spirit:

• Live Entertainment: Enjoy traditional music and dance performances by local groups.
• Culinary Delights: In addition to Resi, you will have the chance to sample a variety of other traditional dishes.
• Local Spirits: Pair your meal with authentic village wine or a glass of zivania.

It is a perfect day out for anyone looking to experience the authentic heart of Cypriot village life.
