Ακολουθεί η μετάφραση του κειμένου στα αγγλικά:
My Broadway

For more than three decades, Broadway has been one of the most beloved and recognisable restaurants on the island of Kos. A family-run business since 1990, it combines contemporary creative Greek cuisine with fresh local ingredients, while maintaining a warm, welcoming and unpretentious atmosphere that has made it a favourite among both locals and visitors alike.
Reading about Broadway in Blue magazine by Aegean
Broadway is consistently ranked among the leading restaurants of Greek gastronomy. It has received numerous distinctions and awards over the years. Its most prestigious honour has been the Greek Cuisine Award, which it has received for the past five consecutive years. At the same time, it holds an FNL Best Restaurant Award star and has also been nominated for the Golden Toques (Chrysoi Skoufoi), confirming its enduring quality and creativity.

The Papakonstantinou family is the driving force behind all this success, led by award-winning chef Giannis Papakonstantinou and his brother Manos, a true marketing star. Their mother, Popi, also plays an invaluable role in welcoming guests and maintaining the restaurant's warm hospitality.
Manos was my student in his final year of high school during the 1998–1999 school year. He was one of those bright, gifted young minds I have always admired and continue to admire today. We stayed in touch after he graduated, and that is how I first came to Broadway. He has always welcomed me as one of his favourite teachers, and even today we never miss an opportunity to mention our teacher–student bond.
In 2017, Broadway embraced the local gastronomy of Kos. Traditional island flavours—pligouri with pork, sweet tomato preserve, watermelon with posa cheese, maïria, and many more—were transformed into remarkable flavour combinations by chef Giannis Papakonstantinou in a truly surprising tasting menu.
About the awards—I have already told you about those.
The quality is something you will discover for yourself from your very first visit.
What I want to tell you about is my Broadway.

There are places you go simply to eat.
And there are places you go because they feel like home.
For me, Broadway is one of those places.
Nearly twenty years of memories.
Birthdays. Celebrations. Friends. Hugs. Reunions after many years.
With a glass of red wine (also produced by the family).
A small restaurant with a big heart.
Not once have I ever heard, "Sorry, we don't have a table."
Somehow, there is always room for us.
Someone will always greet us with a smile.
And Manos will call out, "My dear Sophia!"
I always know I am about to enjoy an exceptional meal.
I know the flavours will be as wonderful as I remember them.
Harmony. Balance.
I know I will leave happy.
There isn't a single person I have hosted in Kos whom I haven't taken to Broadway.
And there isn't a single one who left without falling in love with it.
Sometimes, comfort has a flavour.
It has colours and aromas.
It has familiar faces.
It has people who make you feel they were expecting you.
And that is why you keep coming back.
Again and again.

Hippocrates has recently taken centre stage at Broadway: a magnificent panna cotta dessert, an absolute delight. If this isn't art, what is?
Wonderful photographs by others, capturing special moments of hospitality at the Broadway that holds a special place in my heart.
Broadway Restaurant is located at 36 Megalou Alexandrou Street, Kos.
