The Art of Dining Tailored to You

CTCIS Dining was founded with one purpose: to transform every meal into an unforgettable experience.

We believe that luxury is found in the details—exceptional ingredients, flawless execution, elegant presentation, and genuine hospitality.

From intimate private dinners to large-scale celebrations, every event is tailored exclusively to our clients, combining Mediterranean soul with modern fine dining techniques.

Based between Monaco, the French Riviera and Greece, we create bespoke culinary experiences wherever our clients need us.


With more than 17 years of international culinary experience, Panagiotis Lefkimmiatis has worked in Michelin-starred kitchens, luxury hotels, private villas and superyachts across Europe and Australia.

A graduate of Le Cordon Bleu Paris, his career includes renowned restaurants such as The Fat Duck, Nobu, and prestigious hospitality venues in Monaco and Sydney.

Mediterranean Soul, World-Class Precision

His cuisine combines refined Mediterranean flavours with modern culinary techniques, creating elegant dishes that remain authentic and approachable.

Today he specializes in luxury private dining experiences throughout Monaco, the French Riviera, Greece and international destinations.

Handpicked Ingredients

Every ingredient begins with a choice—not a supplier list. We personally select products for their character, freshness and exceptional quality, building each menu around ingredients worthy of being the centrepiece of the plate. The result is cuisine that speaks through purity rather than excess.

The Season Writes the Menu

The finest ingredients are never forced—they arrive in their own time. Our menus evolve naturally with the seasons, allowing each dish to showcase produce at its absolute peak of flavour, texture and aroma, creating an experience that cannot be replicated year-round.

Respecting Every Ingredient

Exceptional ingredients deserve thoughtful execution, not unnecessary complexity. Every technique, every garnish and every finishing touch is carefully considered to preserve the natural character of each element, allowing quality to remain the true focus of every plate. This philosophy reflects the fine-dining principle that technique should enhance the ingredient rather than overshadow it.

Chef Panos travelled to our rental home in the Old Town of Antibes this week (not an easy feat with no immediate car access) and prepared the perfect meal for our family. It is no exaggeration to say that this evening was the highlight of our two weeks in Greece and France! I asked for oysters, and he delivered the best France has to offer - in a unique presentation that blew us all away. There were little touches like Ouzo cocktails and strawberry panne cotta that was as pretty as it was delicious. Our 5-course Mediterranean seafood meal was fresh, lightly done and absolutely perfect. And the kitchen was left cleaner than it was when Panos arrived. Throughout the process of planning this evening, Panos was responsive and incredibly friendly. I could not give a higher recommendation. And should we return to the Riviera - and I certainly hope we do - a call to Panos will be my first step.

CTCIS Dining delivered such an incredible private dinner for my friend’s hen do. Every course was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and so thoughtfully prepared. Panos also went above and beyond to cater for all of our dietary requirements, which made the whole experience feel really personal and seamless. We enjoyed a wonderful variety of Mediterranean dishes, each with perfectly balanced flavours and cooked to perfection. The portions were incredibly generous, and Panos even prepared extra for us — we’re already looking forward to enjoying the leftovers for breakfast! Panos created such a warm, relaxed atmosphere and made the evening feel truly special from start to finish. I would highly recommend CTCIS Dining for any private dining event or special occasion.

Panos created a private dining experience for 10 people. The food was fantastic. Panos brings creativity and uniqueness to each dish all the while bringing great energy as a chef. My guests were very happy to say the least. Thank you Panos!
