DESCRIPTION
The National Museum of Contemporary Art (EMST) is participating in This Is Athens – City Festival with a fine dining event organised by Wine Style at NYN ESTI, the innovative restaurant on EMST’s top floor.
The five-course menu has been designed by chef Stamatis Misomikes, who combines Greek traditional cuisine with modern sustainable methods. The menu will be paired with five different wines, which will be presented by five female Greek winemakers: Dina Spyropoulou, Maria Dimitriadi, Ioanna Vamvakouri, Anna Kokotou, Marialena and Anastasia Tsimbidi.
Starting at 19:00, the curators of EMST will guide participants through the main works of the exhibition titled, “What if women ruled the world?”, which focuses on the art of winemaking and women’s artistic creation.
