The consultant chef for The Real Greek restaurants, Tonia is credited with turning the brand around 5 years ago, insisting on the authenticity of recipes, ingredients and re-inventing the menu seasonally to reflect new and exciting dishes from her ancestral homeland. Alongside the breadth of recipes from all over Greece and Cyprus Tonia has just launched a full vegan menu there, which highlights the Greek vegan tradition.

In 2006 Tonia won an RTS award for a series she devised for the Discovery Channel ‘My Greek Kitchen’ series 1 & 2 and she then filmed ‘My Cypriot Kitchen’, which was shown in 30 countries globally.

Today, Tonia is regularly seen on ‘GMB’, ‘Saturday Kitchen’, ‘Lorraine’ and ‘Sunday Brunch’ where she is a regular contributor. Tonia was also the face of ITV’s ‘Good Morning Britain’ 100 day diet plan ‘Eat More Lose More’, which followed the popular ‘Sugar-Free Summer’ campaign the previous year.

Her fourth book ‘The Real Greek’ (bringing to life the history of the restaurants) followed best seller ‘Eat Greek For A Week’, which shot to number two in the Amazon Bestsellers list just behind Jamie Oliver in the summer of 2016! The book promises to make you feel fitter and healthier in just a week.

Tonia receives emails and requests from New Zealand to Kazakhstan, from Hong Kong to Australia regarding her culinary knowledge and is very proud to be the Ambassador of Hellenic cuisine globally.

Passionate about Greek food having done her apprenticeship from a very young age in her Mother’s kitchen, Tonia believes Greek food is a big undiscovered secret, but not just the food, the philosophy for life, the spirit & the way of living is a wonderful example of how to live well in the modern world.
