About the Ambassade

For over twenty years Macakizi has created an ever-evolving New Mediterranean cuisine, working with fresh seasonal offerings by the best local producers or grown in the establishment’s gardens where they practice eco-conscious farming as a way to give back to these precious lands. The team is driven by a passion to always offer their guests the best possible gastronomic experience.

How would you define your cooking style?

In short, “seasonal and Mediterranean”. I prioritize using the freshest ingredients and presenting them in a simple and natural manner. I also enjoy incorporating new and creative techniques to elevate traditional dishes.

How does the location of your restaurant inspire your cooking?

My restaurant is nestled along the shores of the Aegean Sea, which provides the freshest seafood and serves as a source of inspiration. Olive trees in the area contribute the exceptional olive oil, and local farms supply me with the finest and most vibrant produce.
