This is what I’ve been working on during the past month.

ImproV's dining area

Actually during the past months – but with several breaks in between – as we had to go through a lot of stuff in order to finally get our operating license. Anyway, at the moment it looks like we will get it before the end of January! So, yeah… hopefully soon I will be cooking in daily basis from this kitchen.

trying to transform this to my dream kitchen

still needs lots of work... but yeah...

It won’t be that messy. I have put lots of work there and it already looks different. I will post pictures as soon as we will be officially ready.

So, the plan is that Sean and I will start operating a complex under the name Volume 10.

There will be a bar at the ground floor.  Then on the first floor there will be a night club and a live stage. Our theme will be rock, of course. We will also be serving premium Czech beers. The ImproV Cafe & Resto, the dining area of this complex, will be located at the ground floor, serving 100% plant based food and variety of beers, smoothies, coffee and tea. Yayyyy for the first pure vegetarian place in Athens.

As a pre-opening party, and to celebrate the Holidays, I organized a vegan dinner party on Christmas Eve. Our place was packed and I was super excited to be cooking a 4 course meal for all these people – that I actually forgot to take pictures. But luckily enough, one of my good friends, Vegan Mama, took some pictures of the place and our guests. Our Christmas Holiday Menu included:

Appetizers

Holiday Mushroom soup
Crostini with white beans and artichoke dip
Mini veggie pot pie

Salads

Green salad with pomegranate seeds, pine-nuts and balsamic agave dressing
Glazed string green beans

Main dish – choice from

Soutzoukakia with rice
Mushrooms giouvetsi
Pinto beans cutlets with creamy mashed potatoes

Dessert – choice from

Cheezecake
Coconut creme brulee
Chocolate pudding pie

Drinks

Santor Wines

Here are some photos from our Christmas party!

I hope we will be ready to open for business before the end of January!
