EFISIA RESTAURANΤ
The Myconian Ambassador captures the essence of Relais & Chateaux
luxury, harmoniously combining understated elegance, contemporary
design, fine cuisine and superb service. Breakfast at Latitudes is the best
wake-up call, flooded with morning light through broad sash windows
that look out onto the magnificent Stay entertainment deck and the
vast Aegean beyond. Light lunches and snacks from George’s bar are
served there at your shaded pool lounger throughout the day, and
well into the spectacular evening sunsets for which guests returning
from the beach mingle with poolside devotees over cocktails. And
when it comes to dinner, Efisia Restaurant, which is widely considered
one of the hottest dining spots on Mykonos, offers the multi-sensory
experience of fine cuisine and al fresco magic under the stars, sheltered
from the light evening breeze in an alcove of rough-hewn stone that
throws off the glow of candlelight.

Executive Chef of the Myconian AMBASSADOR Relais & Chateaux C
How would you describe the food you prepare at Efisia? M
Frugal - with an emphasis on simplicity, pure flavours and the ‘Greekness’
of its ingredients. Y
Which is considered your signature dish? CM
Lobster with prawns and mussels in a bisque broth, served with peas, MY
artichokes and potatoes; but also the lamb chops with eggplant purée CY
and the traditional cold potato salad.
Is there a specific local ingredient that you use in your cooking? CMY
Apart from the smoked pork louza, I may add the yoghurt of exceptional K
quality, kopanisti cheese, or sausage, all of which are supplied to us
by Myconian producers and which have an exceptional flavour and
unique character.
