When food meets drink, it’s not just about accompaniment – it’s about collaboration. The right pairing can elevate a simple meal into a memorable taste experience, where each element enhances the other. Like a good conversation, pairing seeks harmony, intensity when needed, and above all balance. When the right drink meets the right dish, every flavour finds its perfect rhythm.
At Rooster, we believe food isn’t just flavour – it’s an experience. That’s why we’ve created a menu that blends Mediterranean and international influences, paired with a carefully curated list of wines, beers, and liqueurs designed to bring out the best in every dish. From crisp salads to premium meats and creative pasta dishes, each choice comes with the ideal pairing to heighten your enjoyment.
Light salads such as Greek Salad or the Manouri Salad shine next to refreshing whites like Malva – Idaia Winery (Malvasia) or Santorini – Mikra Thira Estate (Assyrtiko).
Richer dishes like Beef Cheeks with mashed potatoes or Hünkar Beğendi demand full-bodied reds such as Ramnista – Kir Yianni Estate (Xinomavro) or Syrah – Gerovassiliou Estate.
The Chicken Caesar Salad with parmesan pairs beautifully with Chardonnay Barrel – Alpha Estate.
Sweet and sour chicken with soy and peppers is elevated by a crisp rosé like Lenga Pink – Avantis Estate.
Crispy Ham & Cheese Rolls or Chicken Schnitzel find perfect balance with a Leffe or a Carlsberg.
For a lighter option, go for Pellegrino or Sprite, which “cut through” the richness.
Look at the dish: its main ingredient, cooking method, and dominant flavour.
Choose between balance or contrast – both can work.
Don’t be afraid to experiment: a Syrah – Gerovassiliou Estate can elevate even a “simple” steak.
In the end, every pairing is a little exploration. We’ve set the stage: our menu, wine list, and beer and liqueur options are here, waiting for you to create your own experience.
