A new restaurant is promising to whisk customers away to Greece with a blend of classic and modern dishes. Kellari has replaced Yiannis in Wollaton Road, Beeston, which served up souvlaki and stifado in the town for more than a decade and before that was a fixture in Sherwood for a good number of years.
Yiannis didn't reopen after Christmas, and owner Yiannis Fragkantonis is now concentrating on pop-ups everywhere from Attenborough to Matlock. But enthusiasts of kleftico and tzatziki haven't been left high and dry thanks to the new venture.
Anyone visiting the restaurant will notice some changes as Kellari puts its own stamp on the business. There's been a facelift resulting in the kitchen being moved upstairs. The bar has been relocated, while a coat of white paint on the walls makes it as bright as the buildings in the Greek isle of Santorini.
