Keto friendliness
Adapting Cypriot cuisine to keto requires deliberate dish selection and requests to omit common high-carb sides.
Top ingredients
Grilled meats (souvlaki, sieftalia, kleftiko), fresh fish, halloumi cheese, olives, and ample olive oil are excellent traditional keto staples.
Danger zones
Beware of ubiquitous pitta bread, rice or potatoes served with almost every main, hummus, bulgur wheat (in salads), and hidden sugars in some marinades or sauces.
Best for
This cuisine works best for experienced keto dieters comfortable making specific requests and navigating menus to build compliant meals.
