These dishes are part of my private in-home dinners, where I come to your home and cook a multi-course Italian meal for you and your guests.

The March experience is customizable from 2 to 4 courses, starting at $80 per person + taxes for one antipasto and one primo.

These plates shaped my 2025.

I travel to taste.
I taste to understand.
I understand so I can cook with honesty.

Each of these restaurants reminded me that great cooking is not about trends.
It is about patience, identity, and respect for where you are.

What I bring to Athens is not imitation.
It is experience.

Your Valentine’s Day Private Dinner!

A quiet, intimate evening at home.

meant to be shared the way it should be:
serving one another, sitting close,
and enjoying the night without frills.
