04 / The person behind the plates
Who is Eleni?
A personal touch, in every plate.
I was born in a tiny little place called Cyprus, in the Mediterranean. Plenty of blue, sunshine, lemon squeezed on pretty much everything, and the smell of grilled meat everywhere.
In my late teens, I traded the Mediterranean warmth for Scotland, spending seven years earning degrees in Business Management and Tourism Marketing Management. Cold breezes, plenty of rain, warm and fluffy sweaters, endless fields of green and breathtaking scenery. Very different from home, to say the least. But somewhere between the rain, the sweaters and the years away, I started to understand just how much of Cyprus I was carrying with me.
Returning to Cyprus gave me a renewed appreciation for my heritage, inspiring me to honor those rich cultural culinary traditions in every dish I create.
With a culinary legacy background, over ten years of experience in the hospitality sector, and two years as a professional chef, I am now offering my knowledge, skill and talent directly in your home.
What can you expect from my food? A modern approach to cooking, with a Mediterranean twist, that feels elevated but yet wildly familiar and ‘comfort’.
