Born in Athens, Philip Chronopoulos trained at the Ecole Bocuse in France. His experience of working in prestigious establishments honed the qualities essential to becoming a great Chef.

In 2015, he became head chef of the Palais Royal Restaurant, with the challenge of writing his own culinary story. He ventured to give it a Greek twist. The mezze at the start of his menu tells the story of his homeland, a childhood memory.

Philip Chronopoulos doesn’t aim to impress, he aims to stir the emotions and leave a lasting impression with his soulful cuisine. This is how, in February 2022, he achieved the two-star rating, which he hopes will illuminate the Byzantine domes of the Palais Royal Venezia.
