About this Event
From the Acropolis to the Forbidden City
Two ancient civilizations meet, not in contrast, but in quiet dialogue.
An evening where Greek and Chinese traditions are reinterpreted
through a shared language of craft, memory, and fire.
Chef KC Suen × Chef Peter Minakis
present a 5-course tasting experience
bridging two worlds at one table.
Each course thoughtfully paired with selected Greek wines,
guiding the journey from sea to land,
from warmth to depth.
