I cook with Greek love and fresh local products, turning tradition into a memorable taste experience.

Panagiotis Katramis

I bring Greek tradition to your table with fresh island ingredients

I’m a chef with 11 years of experience in different restaurants and hotels, and I truly love cooking. After travelling through different cuisines, I want to share a journey of taste with you—focused on great Greek products and the traditions behind them.

Greece is a treasure for cooking: herbs, cheeses, meats, vegetables, and (in my opinion) the best olive oil in the world. If you want authentic flavors with a warm, professional experience, I’d love to cook for you in Zakynthos.

Plan your experience with me

My secret in the kitchen is Greek fresh products, staying in tradition, and my love for cooking.

What you’ll get when I cook for you

I cook to create real pleasure at the table

Cooking is about seeing the pleasure on different people’s faces from the taste I offer—this is what drives me every time I serve a plate.

I’m trained and built through hospitality

I learned my craft at the State School of Tourism Professionals in Rhodes island, and I’ve grown through years of hands-on experience in restaurants and hotels.

I keep it fresh, local, and traditional

My philosophy is simple: I choose Greek fresh products, I stay close to tradition, and I cook with love—so every dish feels honest and special.

Panagiotis’s Menus

I offer BBQ, local Zakynthos recipes, and fish & seafood experiences. I build each menu around fresh Greek products, traditional flavors, and a balanced flow from starters to dessert.

Stories and testimonials

We didn't have the chef we book attend but one of his colleagues, the food was good, far too much and was very wasteful. It was about 3x the amount of food needed for our group. They didn't provide info about the dishes. Many of the dishes felt store bought, or made far in advance, not homemade or cooked onsite. For this price, it would be better to go to a fancy dinner out.

Chef Panos is wonderful! It was truly a highlight of our experience in Zakynthos. Not only did he cook delicious meals but the presentation was Instagram worthy. He did not miss a detail. He was so helpful in recommending and helping to arrange tours and transportation. He "knows a guy" for everything on the island.

Panagiotis Katramis came over nice and early and cooked us a delicious meal which we all really enjoyed. The only thing I was slightly disappointed in was that he wasn't very attentive during the meal. I'd selected the menu weeks before and then couldn't find it online and he wasn't available to explain the menu. I believed we had a choice of dessert but we only had one (as delicious as that one was). However, Panagiotis was extremely helpful in securing us some bottles of water after we discovered that our water wasn't working in the villa and we were low on drinking water on a Sunday night. Overall would recommend, but we wanted to see more of him during the meal!

Chef Panagiotis was truly incredible! He was hired as a surprise for a friend and went above and beyond to make the evening special. Not to mention the food was absolutely delicious!! He was so accommodating with different dietary requirements and catered to everything we asked for. Food aside, he made the dinner a whole experience rather than just serving us food. We would highly recommend and would definitely employ him again!
