Chef Alexakis brings the taste of Crete to your table - refined, seasonal, and deeply personal.
My Cuisine
As a Cretan, I don’t just cook — I share stories.
My menus are rooted in the land I come from: fresh herbs from the mountains, vegetables grown under the island sun, meat and seafood prepared with care and respect.
I offer private dining experiences based on traditional Cretan recipes, brought to life with a modern twist.
Each dish is created to honor the people and moments it’s made for.

My Services
I believe that true luxury lies in the details – in good food, meaningful gatherings, and the feeling of being cared for.
As a private chef, I bring the flavors of Crete to you – wherever you are.
Whether you’re planning an intimate dinner at home, a celebration on a yacht, a Business gathering or a private event in your villa, I craft each dish with attention, respect for tradition, and a personal touch.
Let’s turn your table into something special – wherever it may be.
A Personal Touch for Every Occasion
No matter the occasion — a small wedding, birthday, anniversary, business lunch, or a private dinner with friends — I bring the full experience of Cretan hospitality to your table.
I take care of everything: a custom menu, quality ingredients, and discreet, elegant service. Whether in your home, on a yacht, or in a unique venue, I make sure your event feels just right — personal, relaxed, and unforgettable.
Let’s create something beautiful together.
Tailor-Made Menus for Every Occasion
The menus below are more than recipes; they’re designed experiences, prepared with attention and served with heart.
My food PHILOSOPHY
I believe that great food starts with great ingredients. I choose each product personally — from small farms, local producers, and the land I know.
In Crete, ingredients speak for themselves. I don’t try to change them – I simply respect them. My role is to bring out their character through balance, technique, and a sense of place.
When the quality is real, you don’t need much more.
