Lindos Hotels Partner with Michelin Starred Chef Asimakis Chaniotis
Lindos Village Resort & Spa will host two eight-course tasting menu dinners on 6th and 7th June
Lindos Hotels are thrilled to partner with the only Greek and youngest Michelin starred chef in London, Asimakis Chaniotis, to bring an exquisite eight course tasting menu for two unforgettable nights at Lindos Village Resort & Spa this summer. Asimakis will be working in collaboration with Stavros Manousakis, Corporate Chef at Lindos Hotels Group, to create a delectable tasting menu celebrating Rhodes’s finest ingredients for two intimate dinners on 6th and 7th June.
Perched on a cliff edge overlooking the Aegean Sea in the enchanting cove of Vlycha Bay, diners at Lindos Village Resort & Spa will enjoy breath-taking views of Rhodes whilst they experience the best of Asimakis and Stavros’s creations. The eight-course menu includes Fresh Sea Urchin, Poached Beurre Monte Lobster, Sea Monksbeard, Greek Hogget, Feuille De Brick Tart, followed by Yorkshire Forced Rhubarb, Strawberry and Tonka Bean Parfait. A special dish celebrating the Aegean Sea is also on the menu consisting of Marinated sardines, Fennel, Ouzo, Rock and Sea Samphire, Pickled Mustard Seeds and Smoked Trout Roe.
Born and raised in Athens, Asimakis is the first Greek to be ever awarded a Michelin star out of his country and the youngest in London. Inspired by his love of art, his passions lie in fine dining and French cuisine where precision, creativity and artistry all had him hooked. Craving perfection, Asimakis strives to find the freshest and best produce pairing them together to create unforgettable experiences for his customers. Having previously worked in hotel chains, British pubs, fine dining banquets and event on a yacht, Asimakis is currently working as Executive chef at Pied a Terre, one of the best restaurants in London.

I am very proud to be Greek and look forward to creating new dishes with Stavros, fusing the different flavours of Athens and Rhodes together.”
