Mastercard's culinary initiative returns, with special menus at more than 50 restaurants in Athens, exclusively for Mastercard cardholders.
After four successful editions, Around the table returns to Athens for the 5th consecutive year, now established as one of the city's favorite culinary fixtures for those who love to discover it through its flavors.
From 19 October to 8 November, more than 50 culinary destinations in Athens open their doors to Mastercard holders, presenting specially curated menus priced at 25€ and 50€, designed exclusively for the initiative. At the same time, Mastercard holders will have the chance to take part in three distinct Priceless experiences, from a Chef's Table steak & lobster dinner at Moo Casa in Heraklion, to a gastronomic journey through the flavors of the Eastern Mediterranean at Zigkoala in Omonia and a farm-to-fork experience with an estate tour, ingredient gathering, and a private dinner at Attican Villa & Estate in Anavyssos, turning a meal into an unforgettable moment of creativity, inspiration, and culinary exploration.
This year's edition premiered with the first “Around the table” of the year, held on Monday 19 October at the restaurant Anthes. An evening filled with warmth and authentic moments where beloved content creators sat around the same table, like one big group, to celebrate the long-awaited return of one of the city's most cherished culinary institutions.
Through Around the table, Mastercard continues to highlight gastronomy as an experience that brings people, flavors, and stories together around one table. The participating restaurants present signature dishes that express their distinct character and culinary identity, combining creativity, quality, and select ingredients, inviting Mastercard cardholders to discover different flavors and stories of Athens.
Matina Tzortzi, Head of Marketing & Communications at Mastercard for Greece, Cyprus, and Malta, said: «For the 5th consecutive year, Around the table invites the public to discover Athens through its flavors and to enjoy experiences that bring people closer together. It's a special pleasure for us to see more than 50 of the city's culinary destinations taking part in the initiative this year, confirming the momentum it's built over the years. At Mastercard we believe that the most special moments are often born around a table, when food becomes an occasion for connection, sharing, and new discoveries».
Around the table is delivered with Mastercard's signature, while the initiative was developed and orchestrated by Toposophy, continuing to showcase Athens as a contemporary gastronomic destination through experiences that bring people, flavors, and cultures together.
Reservations are made via aroundthetable.gr, where Mastercard holders can discover the participating restaurants and the available menus and book their place. At the same time, via priceless.com they can secure participation in one of the three exclusive priceless culinary experiences.
