The Greek restaurant which has gone viral for its gushing Kylie Jenner post has a history of OTT celeb tributes, from 'legendary' Magic Johnson to Demi Moore's 'timeless beauty'
Their gushing post about Kylie Jenner visiting their restaurant has set the internet on fire. But Tassia in the Greek village of Fiscardo is no stranger to an over-the-top celebrity tribute. The Greek family restaurant can't help but share their pride when the rich and famous choose their establishment to dine at while on holiday. Shortly after reality star Kylie dined there last week, owners Polychronis Dendrinos and Tassia Dendrinou proudly posted about the 'true honor' of hosting the 'iconic entrepreneur and global trendsetter'. 'An inspiring guest, and one of the most influential women of her generation,' the Dendrinos Family wrote on Instagram. 'She experienced a taste of our Greek hospitality and cuisine. It was a true pleasure to host such a remarkable guest. We hope to welcome her again soon!' However Kylie is not the first to receive such sweet words, with the family previously welcoming the likes of Demi Moore, Oscar winner Samuel L. Jackson, Queen Camilla 's son Tom Parker Bowles, chef Rick Stein and former football manager Arsène Wenger. The last celebrity to grace Tassia was retired NBA star Magic Johnson on June 27, whom the owners described as a 'returning guest with legendary energy.' 'A true honor to welcome Magic Johnson back to our restaurant!' they wrote. 'A returning guest with legendary energy — thank you for choosing us again and embracing our Greek hospitality.' It was his second visit, after he dined on the same day as Django Unchained star Samuel and rapper Flo Rida back in 2022. The family wrote then: 'Yesterday we had the honor and privilege of being visited by three sparkling personalities with worldwide recognition, @magicjohnson, @samuelljackson & @official_flo. 'After trying several dishes from our kitchen and of course our famous lobster pasta, they complimented us on the professionalism and quality of our service. In the end, they gladly accepted to be photographed not only with Dendrinos family, but also with all of our staff. 'Let us highlight that they were very kind, humble and friendly. Thank you very much and we hope to see you again soon.' That same year, Oscar-nominated actress Demi Moore stopped by and they remarked that 'her timeless beauty and solid personality was bright enough to capture our hearts.' The Dendrinou family wrote at the time: 'Yesterday night the Hollywood actress @demimoore payed a visit to our family restaurant. We had the opportunity to meet her in person and treat her the best Kefalonian dishes. 'Her timeless beauty and solid personality was bright enough to capture our hearts. Thank you Demi and we hope to see you again soon.' Last August, French former football manager and player Arsène Wenger paid a visit to the restaurant. Sharing a picture of Arsène with two of the younger family members, Tassia wrote: 'It is a true honor to host the legendary Arsène Wenger, who is a visionary in the world of football, at @tassia_restaurant yesterday in Fiskardo Village! 'We're thankful for the unforgettable moments and wish him all the best in his ongoing journey. Can't wait to welcome you back, Arsène!' Among the other famous guests was British chef Rick Stein, to which the family said: 'A Memorable Visit by @chefrickstein. We were delighted to welcome the renowned British chef, television presenter, and seafood connoisseur, Rick Stein, to our family restaurant in enchanting Fiskardo Village, Kefalonia. 'Rick, it was a pleasure to share our authentic Greek cuisine and exchange ideas about different cuisines and flavors with you. Here's a delectable moment from his visit. As we near the end of the season, we're excited to share that Tassia's Restaurant continues to be a haven for guests seeking the genuine flavors of Greece. 'Join us to experience the allure that drew @chefrickstein to our doors. 'We extend our heartfelt thanks to Rick for gracing us with his presence, and we look forward to welcoming him as a friend anytime he wishes. Until we meet again!' Queen Camilla's son Tom Parker Bowles also dined there, with his gushing post reading: 'A Royal Thank You to Tom Parker Bowles! We had the privilege of hosting Tom Parker Bowles, the renowned British food writer, critic, and broadcaster, and son of Camilla, the Queen of the United Kingdom, at @tassia_restaurant in the charming Fiskardo Village of Kefalonia.
