George, who just recently bagged the Best Pastries Chef of Australia 2019, is a fourth-generation chef in his family. He was born with infectious energy and has a bright welcoming smile. Renowned for the quality of his pastries and impeccable hospitality, he is the personification of popularity. His passion for desserts saw him open Adelaide’s Kalymnos Pastries, often cited as South Australia’s best patisserie, in 1995 and his entertaining, friendly, and informative presenting style has landed him guest spots on a variety of TV shows including Meraki TV, as well as his own show “It’s All Greek to Me.”
