à la grecque: a taste of Athens in the heart of Dubai
à la grecque is a new concept created specifically and exclusively for Time Out Market Dubai by Chef Athanasios Kargatzidis, also known as Chef Tommy – a major chef personality in the Middle Eastern food scene thanks to his innovative Mediterranean cuisine and numerous accolades, including 16th at the MENA’s 50 Best Restaurants. In 2021, Chef Tommy brought his much-loved Beirut restaurant Baron as a pop-up to Dubai for Expo 2020 with great success. At Time Out Market Dubai, à la grecque will offer a unique, rich and delicious taste of Greece through Chef Tommy’s authentic recipes and fresh ingredients – it is the first time that he presents a concept dedicated to the country in which he was born. à la grecque is French for “Greek style”, describing a way of cooking with Greek ingredients such as olive oil, lemons and herbs and reflected in the menu which will include Greek classics such as traditional Souvlaki Wraps, Tarama, Moussaka and more – a kitchen that celebrates the good life, where friends and family gather around tables to enjoy food, laughter and clinking glasses.
