Hollywood Casino at Greektown has named Chef Petro Drakopoulous as its new executive chef. In his new post, Drakopoulous will helm all of the restaurant and culinary operations at Hollywood Casino at Greektown, including Prism steakhouse, Barstool Sportsbook, the newly reimagined Rock Bar, the Monroe Market food hall and all hotel banquets. Chef Petro joins the operation following two years as Executive Chef and Director of Food and Beverage at Detroit’s Atheneum Hotel. Chef Petro has recently revamped the menu at Prism steakhouse, including the introduction of entrée salads and the addition of more proteins for those that don’t eat red meat, as well as a renewed emphasis on modern, composed plates and authentic Greek flavors. “The culinary world is always changing and advancing, and we want to ensure we’re keeping up with the latest trends, but delicious flavors, beautiful plating and quality service never go out of style,” said Chef Petro. “We’re looking to combine the best of what’s been done at the property to date, and marry it with my personal touch for the ultimate culinary experience at Hollywood Casino at Greektown.” 555 E. Lafayette Avenue, Detroit HollywoodGreektown.com
