After spending 5 years in the UK as a chef, Kostas Minetos has now brought his own unique take on Mediterranean cookery to Lourdas on the Ionian island of Kefalonia. Since its opening, the cosmopolitan nature of the cooking, combined with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere have made Andromeda Centre a firm favourite for island residents of all nationalities, as well as an essential port of call for visitors and tourists.

As both owner and chef, Kostas knows the importance of using top quality ingredients, and shops personally for his fresh meat and vegetables. Kostas provides his own variations on recipes from around Greece as well as other parts of the world.

Andromeda Centre is also one of the very few cookery schools in western Greece, offering cookery holidays as well as cooking fun days open to all.

The Centre is brand new, and purpose-built, set in terraced gardens on a hillside in the heart of the popular resort of Lourdas with outlooks towards the sea. The restaurant has seating on the verandahs for 140 people, with room for another 140 inside, and ample parking.
