Chef de Cuisine Nikos Liokas
GB Roof Garden Restaurant and Executive Chef Asterios Koustoudis welcome the summer season featuring new Chef de Cuisine Nikos Liokas, who recently joined their dynamic culinary team. Distinguished Chef Nikos Liokas, having a life-long love and passion for cooking, worked his way up in renowned restaurants in London for several years including Fera at Claridge’s, Davies & Brook by Daniel Hamm and Hide restaurant, acquiring significant experience and expertise. With Mediterranean culinary influence, he has designed a fine comfort menu for GB Roof Garden Restaurant with an authentic wide-ranging flavor palette and each of his creations is a nostalgic dining journey.
GB Roof Garden’s menu philosophy embodies the locality and seasonality of the raw materials, elements that are creatively highlighted in all the new summer dishes. Featuring intense and genuine taste, dishes are being created utilizing fresh seasonal and high quality ingredients with emphasis on organic locally sourced products of small producers and food provenance specially denoted on the menu card. Vibrant dishes not to be missed are the seabass tartar, the Tsakonian eggplant with garlic and tomato glaze, the handmade ravioli filled with manouri cheese from Vlasti and the crispy sourdough bread on its side, the grilled grouper with artichokes cooked in wine and the slow-cooked leg of lamb.
