I’m Vallina, a third-generation member of a Greek-Belgian hospitality family with more than 20 years of experience in the hospitality industry. My love for food and entertaining didn’t start in culinary school, but around a family table where cooking, sharing and welcoming people have always been part of everyday life.

My cooking is Greek and Mediterranean at heart. I respect the traditional flavours and family recipes I grew up with, while adding my own personal touch. I love creating tables filled with mezze, grilled meat and fish, fresh salads, homemade dips and dishes designed to be shared. My style isn’t about stiff fine dining — it’s generous, flavourful food that brings people together.

As a third-generation restaurateur, I carry recipes and techniques that have been passed down through my family. At the same time, I love experimenting with flavours and combinations. With my background in mixology, I also have a strong passion for cocktails, drinks and food pairing.

For me, private dining is about much more than cooking. I want to create an evening where my guests simply sit down, taste, share and enjoy — as if they’ve been invited to a Greek family table
