A Greek Culinary Journey in Four Exquisite Courses

Step into the vibrant world of Athens’ most dynamic couple, Athena and Alexis, as they open the doors to their stunning Attica loft, inviting you to discover the secrets of Greek cuisine like never before.

Athena, an acclaimed architect, trend forecaster, and celebrated stylist for top-tier magazines like Vogue, ELLE, and Madame Figaro, pairs her creative genius with Alexis, a renowned journalist, artist, and publisher.

Known for their trailblazing “Plan B Trends” projects — featuring 104 event magazines over seven years — Athena and Alexis have collaborated with Greece’s most celebrated chefs, combining traditional ingredients in innovative ways.

Also joining this Athens loft cooking experience are Bitsos and Bitsa, their adorable dogs and beloved co-hosts, welcoming you with wagging tails.

1. The Prelude: A Symphony of Spreads and Tsipouro Pairing

Begin with an array of Greece’s most beloved spreads: creamy Tzatziki, rich Skordalia, velvety Fava, and a twist on tradition with Greek Ceviche, complemented by artisanal breads and Tsipouro, a traditional Greek spirit.

2. The Essentials: Mastering the Greek Salad & Daily “Pita”

Think you know Greek salad? This seemingly simple dish is a true test of culinary skill, where crisp cucumbers, ripe tomatoes, Kalamata olives, and feta must be perfectly balanced. Alongside, enjoy the “Pita” of the day — a freshly baked pie filled with seasonal ingredients, a comforting classic in every Greek home.

3. The Main Event: Giouvetsaki & Stuffed Delights

Choose between tender beef or chicken Giouvetsaki — succulent meat slowly cooked with orzo and tomatoes — or, for vegan guests, Stuffed Tomatoes and Green Peppers bursting with fragrant herbs and rice.

4. Sweet Memories: Ice Cream with a Greek Twist

End your meal with homemade ice cream drizzled with the finest Greek olive oil, or enjoy it with hand-made spoon sweets. Conclude with a cup of authentic Greek coffee.
