Saint
Tropez Restaurant Français is situated in an idyllic position on the north
coast of Northern Cyprus from where, sometimes, the mountainous south
coast of Turkey may be seen. About six kilometres west of Kyrenia, with
its own attractively paved car park and easy access from the main
Kyrenia-Lapta road, the restaurant and its terraces overlook the clear
blue Mediterranean Sea and offer views of the ruggedly beautiful Beşparmak
mountain range to the south |

The
restaurant opened on 15 May 1992. Initially, the restaurant
accommodated seven tables and thirty chairs while Hussein personally
cooked, served at tables, and trained his wife, family and staff.
Nowadays, the stylish, air-conditioned restaurant can cater
comfortably for about fifty to sixty customers. And these days it is
Hussein’s charming wife, Dilek, who controls and manages the
kitchen, as well as the kitchen staff – all of whom are female.
Husseın’s daughter, Pınar, started helping her father from the age
of eleven, and was joined later by her younger sister, Bahar. Now
Pınar has completed her university studies, having graduated in
Tourism and Hotel Management, and she assists her father in the
daily management and smooth running of the restaurant. Bahar
studies Information Systems Management at university and helps her
family in the restaurant in her spare time. |
