I FINALLY made it to Nice n Easy Organic Bistro! I have been looking forward to it since the time I met the Co-owners Dimitris Christoforidis & Executive Chef Christos Athanasiadis. I had the pleasure of having Chef Christos come into my kitchen and cook for me! See that episode here…. https://youtu.be/aP7a5xMFeio
There are 3 locations in Greece! I was at the Mykonos location aka Little Venice. Nice n Easy is know for its locally grown produce combined with a Hollywood Influence. They serve Farm-To-Table Cuisine with an Organically Grown Cycladic Flare. And as bonus you get beautiful sunsets free of charge!
