ABOUT PHARAOH

Pharaoh, a wine bar/restaurant, is the creation of food journalist Fotis Vallatos, acclaimed chef Manolis Papoutsakis, wine expert Perry Panagiotakopoulos, and baritone Dimitris Platanias. Set in a post-industrial space with mosaic, steel, Greek ceramics, and global artifacts, Pharaoh features an expansive bookstore offering an array of vinyl records, fresh vegetables, and pieces of wood. Pharaoh's kitchen operates without electricity or gas, relying solely on wood-fired stoves, charcoal grills, and wood-fired ovens to revive traditional Greek cuisine in its purest form. Chef Papoutsakis aims to demonstrate that Greek cuisine, beyond its contemporary acclaim, deserves to be celebrated in its authentic form, as traditionally prepared in villages and homes throughout the country. Signature dishes include grilled wild greens with anthotyro, lamb in egg-lemon sauce with wild chicory, chestnut stew, steamed John Dory with artichokes, and crayfish with clarified butter and thyme. Pharaoh transcends the typical dining experience. It doubles as a wine bar, boasting an extensive selection of over 400 carefully chosen natural wine labels from Greece and worldwide. It is also a listening bar where the city’s top DJs play eclectic tunes from vinyl on a state-of-the-art stereo system.
