                                                 For Food aFicionados seeking a truly unique experience unlike any other,
                                                the fine dining experience at Opson restaurant is a flavourful journey into
                                                classical antiquity not to be missed. In creating the menus, Executive Chef
                                                Stefanos Kolimadis looked towards Ancient Greek archaeology, literature and
                                                art and worked with experts and academics to source, test and perfect the best
                                                food that Ancient Greece has to offer. Combining history with contemporary
                                                gastronomy, dishes that Aristotle, Homer and Plato used to eat are translated
                                                into a fine dining setting concept that is ambitious and inspired in equal measure.
                                                 Bridging together points in time, the menu features unique dishes that make
                                                optimum use of the finest local produce, including freshly-picked vegetables
                                                and fragrant herbs from our own back yard, Santorini cheeses, capers, white
                                                aubergine and freshly-caught seafood and fish – as well as the island’s indigenous
                                                bright red tomato. Naturally, the accompanying wine list is as carefully put
                                                together as you’d expect showcasing local gems and international labels that                                                Our head chef Stefanos Kolimadis, in consultation with classical scholars, has
                                                perfectly accompany the innovative food. Regardless of whether you prefer                                                    created a tasting menu based on the dishes enjoyed by philosophers such as
                                                                                                                                                                            Aristotle, Plato and Omiros. Opposite page – Combining contemporary cuisine
