Chef - David Karatzas
David has been cooking since he was fairly young. During the last several years he has been working as a chef.
He is truly passionate about Mediterranean cuisine, and more specifically about Greek traditional cuisine, as local traditions and the variety of tastes help this cuisine to become unique.
Three of the things he admires in cooking are Mediterranean herbs, olive oil, and wine, as these three elements can inspire any plate and make us travel through the local traditions.
In his free time he loves discovering new places, organizing trekking trips, and cooking in nature for his friends.
