Kritonas Poulis Kilikio
KRITONAS POULIS
 An Athenian who has lived in Paris since 2004, Kritonas was accustomed, on each return from his holiday, to fill his suitcase with his favorite Greek products. Many times, he tried to find the flavors that he lacked so much in his adopted city, in vain. Point of succulent orange of Nafplio or of feta matured 12 months in the Parisian businesses! Encouraged by his family, he decided to create a place where he could gather all the wonders of his country. After a year of research, Kilikio opened in October 2014.

Kritonas has worked in Athens (Varoulko), London (Sketch), Seoul (Café Dior), Tokyo (Hotel New Otani), Kyoto (Ritz Carlton) and Paris (Lucas Carton, Royal Monceau, L’Arpège ). He started at the age of 16 in the salty kitchen with Lefteris Lazarou in Athens. He then studied at the Cordon Bleu school in Paris and with Alain Passard, Alain Senderens and Pierre Gagnaire. In 2005, at 23 years old, he joined the team of Pierre Hermé and became chief pastry chef.

Stavros Seretis Kilikio
STAVROS SERETIS
He was born and raised in Athens, while constantly seeking the opportunity to regain his origins in the island of Crete where his family cultivates olive trees, some of which are more than 800 years old. He has always enjoyed exploring Greece, its magnificent scenery and of course the famous Mediterranean cuisine!

Like a true Cretan, its hospitality has no borders. He loves to introduce Greek culture and the joy of living!
Kilikio is the result of many trips, millions of tastings and a constant desire to express all these precious memories with people from all over the world.
What began as a challenge between two friends, evolved into a sharing experience, the driving force that led to new culinary explorations!
He studied theater, music and aesthetics and is always focused on the arts, sciences and pleasures that bring people together, as well as kilikio ..
