Kerasma is such a homely and authentic restaurant. It's perfect for an intimate date or group catch up. The highlights for me are the haloumi, Afelia pork and chicken. The dessert is a MUST order.
Their owner Peter Michael is of Cypriot descent and proudly has an authentic menu. He describes Cypriot food as a melting pot of Greek, African, Asian, Middle Eastern, European mixtures full of combined flavours.
The house made haloumi ($12.50). The salty cheese is delicious and is well matched with the tomato and parsley and lemon. I absolutely love haloumi and would recommend this dish. Peter suggests one of the most delicious and authentic dishes is the Afelia pork fillet. It's served up in a red wine and coriander cooked over charcoal with bulgur wheat and egg noodle pilaf with a side of yoghurt ($29). It's the size of a main but is quite easily shared. I really like this dish and I love the little crunchy noodle bits that add to the moist and perfectly cooked pork.
No meal is complete without the delicious Loukoumades ($12) which is a honey sugar syrup with pistachio dessert. It's basically a donut but is so amazingly tasty. A MUST ORDER.The loukoumades is soft little pillows of heaven. I have more than my fair share of this dish and am sooo happy. read more
