We are delighted to welcome Chef Luca Piscazzi as a judge for the Chefs’ Competition. With roots in the vibrant culinary scene of Rome, Chef Piscazzi's journey from his grandmother's kitchen to the one Michelin-starred Pelagos at Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens is nothing short of extraordinary. At the age of just 19, driven by a passion for culinary arts, Chef Piscazzi embarked on a culinary voyage that took him from the bustling streets of London to the refined dining destinations of Michelin-starred establishments around the world. During his tenure as head chef at La Dame de Pic London, the restaurant achieved two Michelin Stars, a testament to his unwavering commitment to excellence. Now, as a judge for the MEDYS 2024 Chef's Competition, Chef Piscazzi brings his wealth of experience and discerning palate to the table. With profound respect for seasonality and sustainability, he continues to push the boundaries of Mediterranean cuisine, crafting dishes with unique flavours and aromas. #GreekYachtingAssociation #GYA #MEDYS2024 #mediterraneanyachtshow #yachtshow #nafplion #nafplionyachtshow
With excitement building for the Chefs' Competition, we're thrilled to welcome back culinary visionary Chef George Papazacharias of Delta Restaurant in Athens for the second consecutive year! At his culinary home, Chef Papazacharias orchestrates creations that redefine the Greek dining scene. With an unwavering commitment to sustainability and a passion for innovation, he's not just cooking dishes—he's crafting works of art and experiences. Chef Papazacharias' journey to gastronomic greatness is a testament to his dedication and talent. From his formative years in Greece, to international experiences at renowned establishments around the globe, including the prestigious "Maaemo" in Oslo, awarded with 3 MICHELIN stars, and the groundbreaking "Under" underwater restaurant, holder of 1 MICHELIN star, he has carved a path that's uniquely his own. At Delta restaurant, Chef Papazacharias is on a mission to transform the culinary landscape with his zero-waste philosophy, championing local ingredients, and collaborating with small-scale producers. His visionary approach has not only secured Delta the distinction of being the only restaurant in Greece to be awarded with 2 MICHELIN stars, but has also earned it a coveted Michelin Green Star for its chef's pioneering commitment to sustainability. With charisma, creativity, and a daring spirit, Chef Papazacharias continues to push the boundaries of gastronomy and we are truly honoured to have him back in action. #GreekYachtingAssociation #GYA #MEDYS2024 #mediterraneanyachtshow #yachtshow #nafplion #nafplionyachtshow
