Undeniably the most famous “corner” of Athens, GB Corner is the acknowledged hot spot for the capital’s coolest crowd. Its chic, historic atmosphere and polished French-Mediterranean menu promise to transform any meal into a much-savoured highlight.
Located directly on your right as you cross the hotel’s majestic Beaux Arts lobby, GB Corner ushers you into a lively brasserie-style space, bustling with energy and a steady stream of Athens’ most prominent residents and visitors alike.
Undoubtedly Athens’ most famous eatery, GB Corner entices on so many levels—from its authentic 1900's Art Deco décor to a sophisticated blend of French-Mediterranean cuisine prepared under the acclaimed auspices of Master Chef Bertrand Valegas.
Artfully designed leather armchairs surround you with their intimate embrace, creating a much-coveted impression of privacy while still allowing you to enjoy the scintillating hum of the crowd. The open kitchen offers a vibrant display of culinary showmanship sure to impress even the most worldly traveller.
Infused by Chef Bertand Valegeas’ credo that only the finest and freshest ingredients will do, the bistro menu includes a selection of local Greek delicacies and worthy French favourites, alongside its renowned offering of grilled meats. Superior cuts of imported US beef are grilled to perfection and accompanied with your choice of side dishes and inventive sauces—served in beautiful porcelain bowls that are placed in the centre of the table for everyone to enjoy.
Chef Valegeas recommends the following dishes as a memorable sampling of the delights his kitchen offers. Start your meal with the sushi-grade tuna marinated in soy and saki. Follow that with the restaurant's signature grilled T-bone steak, paired with a sinful potato confit and fiery green pepper sauce. As the perfect finale, indulge in the signature dessert of chocolate soup topped with vanilla chocolate.
No stranger to accolades and awards, Chef Valegas came on the Athens' restaurant scene with a star of recognition by Athinorama magazine as “Best New Chef” in 2002. Since then he has earned three "Xrysous Skoufos" or Golden Chef's Hat awards in 2003, 2004 and 2005 respectively. Last year, he was honoured with Athens’ Gourmet Magazine award for “Best Bistro/Brasserie.” During his previous stint in Dubai, his talent earned a “Best New Opening” award for his French restaurant at the Park Hyatt, Dubai. Throughout the year, he is happy to share his culinary stage with star guest chefs during the international food festivals hosted at the hotel.
