who we are

We are two (always), and sometimes we are three… Which ones?

Vangelis

Cook and author of the 5 volume alternative culinary school Democratic Gourmet

He specializes in southern European cuisine. He exclusively works with cheap, fresh and healthy materials, which he presents in a modern and minimal way. Grown up in Sepolia, Athens, he has studied in Italy and has a culinary experience in Greece, Belgium, Spain and Italy. In addition to his pans, he plays acoustic and electric guitars and he occasionally writes about NBA. He speaks Greek, English, Italian, French and Catalan, and thus he has the possibility of having a spherical culinary knowledge.

Katerina

Pastry maker and photographer of Democratic Gourmet

Born in Karpenisi with origin of Armenia, Crete and Peloponnese. She looked for her artistic identity shortly as a professional singer. When she’s not occupied with her mixers and her camera, she experiments with the sewing machine, processes old clothes, restores small furniture etc. She has studied in Italy and Greece and she also speaks Greek, English, Italian, Catalan and French.

Nuri

Responsible for the “DOGocratic Gourmet” column

Of unknown origin, she was adopted from the Animal Welfare of Perama, before joining the Democratic Gourmet team. She is an honorary member of the jury of meat dishes prepared by Vangelis. Logically she speaks Greek, English, Italian, Catalan, and French, as she understands all these languages, whenever it suits her.

Lennon

Public relations manager

Found at Castellamonte, Piemonte, he is the youngest member of the Democratic Gourmet team. He immediately took over public relations due to his special sociability and popularity. He only speaks Italian, as he is still too young for foreign languages.
