Constantinos entered hospitality at 15, armed with zero qualifications but an obsessive attention to detail and a willingness to do absolutely everything. By 23, he was managing a restaurant and soon after became Assistant General Manager at a five-star hotel – proof that hard work (and probably caffeine) pays off. After mentoring hospitality students at City Unity College, he decided to test everything he’d learned by launching Por Favor, a modern Mexican casual dining concept born from my time in Manchester and his love of tacos done properly. Today, Por Favor is one of Cyprus’s top-rated restaurants, with locations in Nicosia and Limassol, ISO 22000 certification, over 50 employees, and consistently stellar reviews (4.5 stars online, 9.4/10 on delivery apps). The Nicosia branch seats 200, while the Limassol outlet leads on delivery, supported by a food truck that’s somehow everywhere: festivals, private events, corporate lunches, you name it. To stay ahead of trends, they also launched SmashMe – delivery-only burger kitchen with no patience for soggy buns – and Healthy Meals Limassol, a ready-to-eat meal plan service covering everything from vegan to keto. The real strength? A brilliant, tight-knit team built through training, internal promotions, and a shared obsession with quality. They are now focused on sustainability, reducing waste, and installing photovoltaic systems to power our growth. Because in an industry that never stands still, neither do they – and that’s exactly how they like it.
