Yannis
Baxevanis
Yannis Baxevanis was born in Athens
53 years ago. He entered the hotel
school where he graduated two
years later with honours.
He spent the early years of his career travelling to various European
countries such as Germany, Switzerland, France (at the Hilton in Strasbourg where he obtained a silver medal at the Inter national Exhibition of
Gastronomy) in order to discover and
learn about the different cultures and
their gastronomy.
Back in Greece, he becomes Chef in
various grand hotels and restaurants
where he is awarded from several
organizations and magazines. And it
is in Crete and alongside the elderly
women of the mountains, that he will
discover the famous Cretan cuisine
and its extraordinary products.
Successively Chef Executive at the
Mirabello Hotel, at the Elounda Bay
Hotel and at the restaurant Dionysos
(Elounda Beach Hotel), he has im-

posed his own style since winning the
prize for the Best Restaurant outside
Athens. In Mykonos, at the Mykonos
Blue Hotel and back in the capital,
he is recognized as one of the best
representatives of the Modern Greek
Cuisine. He remodernized the use of
“ wild herbs ”, used traditionally but
forgotten by recent generations. He
uses local products, collects himself
the Sea salt and picks up herbs on
the rocks that he serves his guests just
a half an hour later. Prizes pile up, just
to name a few, he was elected : 12
times “ Best Greek Cook of the Year ”,
elected twice “ Chef of the Year ” by
the young public... Regularly invited
by the media to talk about his art
and the products he uses, he writes
numerous articles in the national
press as well.
Yannis is also sent to various parts of
the world by the OPE, the Organization for the Promotion of Greek Products abroad (Foucquet’s in Paris , at
the UN during the Greek Presidency,
at the hotel school Culinary Institute
of America in New York and in San
Francisco , etc.) in order to enlighten
people on the new Greek gastronomy. His restaurant “ Elia ” in Dubai
has been ranked since its opening
amongst the five best restaurants in
the Emirates by “ Time Out ” magazine.
He received, in addition to Greek gastronomy prizes, the prize of “ Chef of the
Future ” by the International Gastronomic Academy. Yannis is also the author
of a book published under the title “ Ta
kalytéra mou ” - “ My best dishes ”.

De nombreux guides gastronomiques s’accordent à
dire que la cuisine grecque est l’une des cuisines les
plus saines et savoureuses au monde.
Ainsi, du lundi 2 mars au dimanche 15 mars 2015, deux
grands Chefs s’unissent pour vous offrir une escapade
gourmande vers ces contrées méditerranéennes.
Edgard Bovier a le plaisir d’accueillir, pour la cinquième année consécutive, au sein même de sa cuisine le Chef Yannis Baxevanis qui fut 12 fois Meilleur
cuisinier Grec de l’année et remporta également le
prix du « Chef de l’Avenir » décerné par l’Académie
Gastronomique Internationale. Il est également reconnu comme un des meilleurs représentants de la
cuisine grecque moderne en Grèce et à l’étranger. En
mars 2013, le restaurant Elia, qu’il supervise à Dubaï, se
voit décerner le second prix du Meilleur restaurant de
l’Emirat par le magazine « Time Out ».
C’est lors d’une rencontre fortuite à Lagonissi que ces
deux amis firent connaissance, et c’est aujourd’hui
en Suisse qu’ils se retrouvent sur les rives du Léman au
Lausanne Palace & SPA.
