The restaurant **Byzantino**, located within the state-of-the-art AEK OPAP Arena – Center of Sports, Memory, and Culture, has opened its doors and hosted a tasting evening for journalists from the culinary and sports reporting fields.

The guests were welcomed by Mr. Christos Athanasiadis, Christos Papadimitriou, Dimitris Christoforidis, Manos Gavras, and Kostas Mastorakis on behalf of Gendal, a member of the Nice n Easy Group, which manages the F&B services of the stadium.
