After the success at the recent NSW awards Jaaks Restaurant and Bar (Jaaks) and The Kyle
Bay on Georges River (The Kyle Bay) have taken out two further awards at the 2023 National
Restaurant & Catering Hostplus Awards for Excellence.
Jaaks won gold as the Nation’s best Greek Restaurant and The Kyle Bay won silver in the Wedding Caterer category.
Business owners, siblings, George Christodoulou and Diana Valsamis say “We are grateful and
immensely proud of these exceptional achievements. As a small business we extend our
gratitude to our committed team for their tireless efforts. These awards are a culmination of years
of passion and dedication for the hospitality industry. We love being part of our guests’ special
day, from an intimate dinner for two celebrating a milestone to a lavish wedding by the
waterfront.”
Restaurant Manager, Harry Sarantidis, who has been at Jaaks since opening says “A conscious
decision was made after the lockdowns to create a restaurant that elevates Greek/Cypriot cuisine
to a fine dining level.
Every aspect of the diner’s experience is meticulously attended to, from the renovated and comfortable furnishings to the regional Greek leaning wine list.
Each dish takes you on a culinary journey showcasing the history and culture of the Greek landscape.”
