Resounding reception as Eleni’s Kitchen and Bar in Yarraville reopens

·

Costumers flocked to the beloved Greek restaurant Eleni’s Kitchen & Bar in Yarraville, Victoria, at the establishment’s reopening on Wednesday, November 13. This comes less than five months after a fire tore through the premises.

The new interior after the restaurant reopened. Photos supplied.

Eleni’s Kitchen & Bar closed in June this year after a suspicious fire charred the entire interior of the family-owned restaurant. The only thing that remained intact was a photo of Father Antonis Amanatidis, the great-grandfather of the restaurant’s co-owners and sisters Anatoli and Eleftheria Amanatidis.

Anatoli and Eleftheria “fired up the charcoals” again on November 13, welcoming back customers to enjoy some of their Greek favourites.

Eleftheria told The Greek Herald that the sisters were “so thankful and happy” to be reopening the restaurant.

“It’s been amazing seeing regular customers again and having new people support us that have waited for the reopening. Looking forward to a busy end of year,” she added.
