The event Greek Chefs Abroad has already become a tradition. After the great success of the last three editions, family-run Mar-Bella Collection is now organizing it again in 2024. The event series brings famous Greek chefs from all over the world back to the old homeland in summer. This year, they're coming to the Mar-Bella Collection Hotels on Corfu and Parga, to serve guests menus that have their roots in Greek cuisine. However, it's spiced up with a difficult dose of creativity and international influences. The focus is, of course, on typical Greek hospitality, which includes sharing good dishes as well as good stories.
