The March Menu is here!

A seasonal journey through Italy, with dishes inspired by the flavors of Liguria, Venice, Emilia-Romagna and Southern Italy.

These dishes are part of my private in-home dinners, where I come to your home and cook a multi-course Italian meal for you and your guests.

The March experience is customizable from 2 to 4 courses, starting at $80 per person + taxes for one antipasto and one primo.

Private dinners are available for groups of 6 guests or more.

And of course, many of the classic Athens Pasta Lovers dishes are always available as well.

If you'd like to plan a dinner or learn more, feel free to send a DM, leave a comment, or reach out at [email protected].

These plates shaped my 2025.

I travel to taste.
I taste to understand.
I understand so I can cook with honesty.

Each of these restaurants reminded me that great cooking is not about trends.
It is about patience, identity, and respect for where you are.

What I bring to Athens is not imitation.
It is experience.

This is your sign to plan a pasta night.
Traditional Italian recipes, just like in Italy.
