Born and raised in Athens, a city full of history and art, from a young age Asimakis was very interested and involved in street art and whilst his interest for food started to become a dream of a career, art really inspired him and helped him develop as a young commis and chef in the kitchens he began to work in.

Asimakis worked in a variety of kitchens from Hotel chains to restaurants to British pubs and from fine dining to banquets and exhibition centers, he was even a private chef on a yacht. But nothing made him as passionate about cooking as fine dining and French cuisine, the precision, the creativity, the artistry, all had him hooked.

Alongside learning new techniques and learning about wine, Asimakis pushed himself to try and create an unforgettable experience for customers. This hunt for perfection and attention to detail, as well as the rush and adrenaline he gets whilst trying to raise the standards in the kitchen, have made him the chef that he is today.

2017 was such an important year for Asimakis as Chef de cuisine of L'Autre Pied Restaurant! Now as Executive chef at one of the best restaurants in London and an establishment of such a history, Pied a Terre, will give one of the best dining experiences! A great challenge in a great city which gave him his first Michelin star on 2018!
