Outside America (((big restaurant chains))) are practically unheard of, if you exclude fast food joints or American chains which are usually pretty bad outside America.

In every country, every city every single restaurant is gonna be independent. If you go to one place that sucks that doesn't mean every other restaurant in that are sucks too, there's a huge difference.

Generally speaking, the more expensive the food is, the better the service is. There's just no way to know ahead which restaurants are good and which are bad unless you know locals who frequently eat at restaurant.

During your trip, how many restaurants did you eat at in each country?

I was alone with wife both trips, for a week. We'd have hotel breakfast and probably 1-2 times daily some restaurant on both trips. It was humid as hell so we didn't get hungry very often. I don't think we went to the same restaurant twice on either trip.

Greece was pretty bad in almost every place. Cyprus was mostly good in every place, we spent most of our time in the Ayia Napa area. I don't remember anything tasting bad in the entire country, except one place in Paphos near the harbour. The wine was better in Greece, the olive oil was MUCH better in Greece.

Sounds reasonable, I never been there myself. All I know is that Cyprus is much more of a tourist destination while Greece is a lazy nation, the people are lazy hence bad service may be common across the country, tho I'm just generalizing.

Their food is great tho, real olive oil not some fake rape seed bullshit or corn syrup or soy extract. Most of EU takes olive oil seriously, but particularly in the south were (((cheaters))) can get long prison sentences for selling fake olive oil.

I'd be wary of olive oil made by italians, esp if its produced in **Puglia**

those "jews of the mediterranean" do a *wonderful* trick... they buy olive oil in bulk from shithole muslim hellholes like Tunisia, and process them in Italy--then they sell it as "genuine 100% Italian olive oil" with an EU sticker despite the fact the oil itself is made from some shoddy camel-fucker Chemlali olives which tastes suspiciously similar to Leccino (which tastes like nothing, the most tasteless olive cultivar there is)

there is a lot of olive oil fuckery going on in Italy, i would not recommend their oils unless i know a specific winery that produces their own olive oil in addition to wine

Yep, and from what I've heard they crack down on (((fake oil))) a lot now because it has already damaged Italys reputation. (((Their))) main trick is to exploit the naming. Extra virgin olive oil or something like that is how you know it's genuine. (((They))) change it to Extra super meg ultra non (written in very small letters) virgin "olive" oil and sell it for a lower price.

There's a lot of money in genuine olive oil, so this problem won't go away until every last one of those kikes are locked up in prison or exterminated.

I wrote a very handy guide for people to recognize fake olive oils but i'll repeat the essentials

to tell the difference between the fakers and the genuine oil you need to look for three things

first off is the olive cultivar, if its genuine olive oil they'll tell you the cultivar, in greece the most common cultivar is Koroneiki, in spain it could be Arbequina (South Spain) or Arbosana (North Spain)

there is a shitton of cultivars but i'm just naming the popular ones

Second off is the acidity, true virgin olive oil has low acidity rating (usually below 0.5%, the best quality are 0.3% and lower)

third off place of harvest and DATE of harvest

real olive oil would state where the olive was harvested and WHEN in ADDITION to the expiration date

forth and this is common sense: genuine olive oil isn't cheap, if you're seeing suspiciously cheap olive oil in the supermarket its either diluted or fake olive oil, or like the filthy (((dagos))) in Italy sourced cheaply and processed crudely (not true virgin olive oil)

I think the tourism might be regional. Everyone I know here in PL has been to Greece, very few have been to Cyprus. Overall I liked Cyprus alot more, it looked entirely liveable too whereas everywhere in Greece looked like 2/3rds of the population abandoned their homes whilst escaping some kind of cataclysm. Abandoned houses, abandoned constructions, garbage everywhere, barely roadworthy cars. You could really see the poverty.
