Get to know me better

Well planned menus, professional technique, creativity and seasonal produce.

I'm a 35 year old Irish-Greek Chef who has been working professionally for 15 years now. I started Seasonal Dining by Russell three years ago which specializes in small-scale, personalized experiences in Athens and Andros, Greece.  Embracing a food-focused lifestyle, I traded bustling city kitchens where I trained under noteworthy and michelin starred chefs for the tranquility of island life where I worked on an organic vegetable farm, learned how to line fish and honed my butchery skills. I am now Athens based and work full-time at a noteworthy fish restaurant in Kolonaki

I focus on creating European cuisine inspired by regional and seasonal ingredients found in Greece.  From homemade breads like oven-baked focaccia, and fluffy brioche, to freshly-made pastas, I ensure a delightful culinary journey. With locally sourced vegetables, meats, and just-caught seafood, I tailor dishes to your preferences and dietary needs. Enjoy an elevated and customized dining experience with me.

More about me

For me, cooking is...

about bringing people together. Doing this in my late teens is where my love for cooking started.

I learned to cook at...

Two noteworthy restaurants in London taught me the majority of my culinary skill. The Holborn Dining Room and Elystan Street, Chelsea.

A cooking secret...

is to balance a menu which will create a memorable experience. And to stay organised!
