The March Menu is here!

A seasonal journey through Italy, with dishes inspired by the flavors of Liguria, Venice, Emilia-Romagna and Southern Italy.

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.

Private dinners are available for groups of 6 guests or more.

And of course, many of the classic Athens Pasta Lovers dishes are always available as well.

If you'd like to plan a dinner or learn more, feel free to send a DM, leave a comment, or reach out at [email protected].

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.
The table set together.
Wine poured slowly.
Food passed around.
Time taken.

I come to your home and cook a traditional Italian dinner,
meant to be shared the way it should be:
serving one another, sitting close,
and enjoying the night without frills.

This is your sign to plan a pasta night.
Traditional Italian recipes, just like in Italy.
The kind you eat slowly
with a glass of wine
and the people you actually want to be with.
No reservations.
Just show up.

At Il Clandestino , you arrive with your feet in the sand, dining next to kids still playing soccer on the beach as the sun goes down.
The restaurant, created by the brilliant Moreno Cedroni, Michelin-starred chef and mind behind "La Madonnina del Pescatore", is the playful, rebellious side of his cuisine. A place where food is light but thoughtful, driven by flavor and ideas, never by formality.
A magical spot to eat, pause, watch the sea, and feel a little like a child again.
