The largest gastronomic institution in Cyprus returns to highlight the island’s best restaurants, celebrating 20 years of success.

The Cyprus Eating Awards, the premier culinary event in Cyprus, is back to once again reward the top restaurants on the island. This year marks a special milestone as the institution celebrates 20 years of successful achievements and accolades. Over the years, the awards have played a significant role in enhancing and improving the gastronomic and dining landscape of Cyprus.

The awards are presented by Nespresso and organised by Check In Cyprus.

The awards ceremony will take place on Tuesday, 11 February 2024, at the Parklane, A Luxury Collection Resort & Spa in Limassol.

The journey of the institution, which began in 2005, aimed to elevate the standards of dining in Cyprus. Two decades later, Check In Cyprus is delighted to see that the vision, effort, and passion of all those involved have made this dream a reality. Behind the kitchens, menus, and elegantly set tables are people who truly love what they do. Together with you, who embraced the awards from the very beginning, we have transformed the dining philosophy, talked about gastronomy, and put Cyprus on the global culinary map. For 20 years, we’ve been tasting, innovating, exploring, and ultimately enjoying imaginative flavours created by passionate individuals.

This institution was created to enhance the quality of local gastronomy and recognise noteworthy efforts. With 20 years of expertise and experience, the Cyprus Eating Awards proudly stand as the only institution in Cyprus that truly understands the island’s dining scene. Following international standards, the event carries significant responsibility and dedication to its audience, restaurateurs, owners, and chefs striving to excel in the highly competitive food industry. With professionalism, consistency, and a focus on top-quality ingredients, services, and value, Check In Cyprus seeks to discover and reward the restaurants that maintain the highest standards of dining excellence.

Each year, the award categories adapt to reflect the latest trends in the dining sector, both in Cyprus and abroad. The Check In Cyprus team, along with a 41-member committee comprising professionals, gastronomy experts, journalists, oenologists, and food enthusiasts from across the island, analysed this year’s gastronomic scene. They concluded the process with an online vote to shortlist the leading restaurants across Cyprus as nominees for the competition.

ON THIS DAY: The Phantom of the Opera premieres (1986)

On 9 October 1986, the Phantom of the Opera premiere took place at Her Majesty's Theatre in London's West End, marking the beginning of one of the most successful productions in musical theatre history. Created by Andrew Lloyd Webber and starring Michael Crawford as the mysterious Phantom and Sarah Brightman as Christine Daaé, the musical would go on to captivate audiences around the world with its haunting melodies, elaborate staging and dramatic love story. From Gothic novel to West End sensation Based on Gaston Leroux's 1910 novel, The Phantom of the Opera tells the story of a disfigured musical genius who lives beneath the Paris Opera House and develops an obsessive love for a young soprano. Andrew Lloyd Webber transformed the Gothic tale into a lavish stage production, combining romance, mystery and tragedy with a powerful orchestral score. The musical introduced songs that would become theatre classics, including "The Music of the Night", "All I Ask of You", "Think of Me" and the dramatic title number. Directed by Harold Prince, with musical staging and choreography by Gillian Lynne, the original London production featured elaborate costumes, atmospheric sets and a spectacular falling chandelier that became one of the show's most recognisable moments. Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman's defining roles Michael Crawford's performance as the Phantom became one of the defining roles of his career, earning him widespread acclaim for his portrayal of the troubled character. Sarah Brightman, who was married to Lloyd Webber at the time, originated the role of Christine Daaé, bringing her distinctive soprano voice to the production. Their performances helped establish the musical's international reputation and set the standard for generations of actors who would later take on the roles. A record-breaking theatrical phenomenon The Phantom of the Opera premiere began an extraordinary run in London's West End. The original London production reached 13,629 performances before being interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020. The musical returned to the West End in 2021 and has continued its run. Its success also crossed the Atlantic, with the Broadway production opening in New York in January 1988. The show went on to become Broadway's longest-running musical, closing in April 2023 after 13,981 performances. Over the decades, The Phantom of the Opera has been performed internationally, translated into numerous languages and seen by millions of theatregoers. Forty years of The Phantom of the Opera On 9...
