A renowned restaurant owner, who has been working in Liverpool for more than two decades, called on the government to support the hospitality industry to stop more venues from closing amid the cost of living crisis.
Christakis Georgiou, 54, moved to Liverpool from Cyprus in the 1990s, working as manager at Caesar's Palace on Renshaw Street before setting up the titular Christakis chain. The business is famed for its radio jingle and now serves Greek food from sites on Duke Street and Aigburth Road, as well as a stall in the Baltic Market.
He told the ECHO the business is now facing staggering bills to keep the establishments running.
