Koukoumavlos

About

In the remote 1989, in a Santorini much different than the one we know today, a young but extremely talented and bold chef named Nikos Pouliasis decided to make his dream come true and open his very own restaurant. That restaurant was Koukoumavlos, which was destined to become one of the most important Greek gastronomy venues of all time. Nikos Pouliasis was a self-taught cook, but sometimes raw talent and eagerness to learn can prove equally important with certificates. His sui generis cuisine, bold combinations, innovative thinking, and tireless experimentations offered guests unique visual and gustatory journeys and presented his restaurant with numerous prestigious awards. In 2023 the iconic restaurant of Santorini joins the Katikies family and finds its new, and forever, home in the breath-taking setting of Katikies Chromata in Imerovigli, enjoying a killer Caldera view and a stunning Cycladic ambiance.
