As ambassadors of Greek culinary traditions, participating chefs this year worked with fresh local products enhancing age-old recipes with new trends and re-introducing these to the public.
All participating chefs said they were proud to be contributing to the promotion of Greek cuisine abroad and said in this way they paid tribute to their culinary roots.
Dedicated for over half a century to high-quality hospitality, the MarBella Collection group has enhanced the guest experience with high-level gastronomy establishing the group’s hotels as prime culinary destinations.
The aim of the “Greek Chefs Abroad” initiative is to establish Greece as modern culinary destination that can attract eclectic tourism.

The MarBella Corfu Hotel has also been awarded twice with the Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Award. The group also runs the adults-only, Small Luxury Hotels of the World member MarBella Nido Suite Hotel & Villas, and the MarBella Elix.
