HARRIS SAKALIS
Executive Chef

With a passion for refined simplicity and locally sourced ingredients, Executive Chef Harris Sakalis brings a global sensibility to the flavours of the West Coast. Originally from Greece, Chef Harris has honed his craft in luxury kitchens across Europe, the Middle East, and North America. 

His culinary philosophy is rooted in sustainability, seasonality, and storytelling - celebrating the richness of local bounty with a modern, elevated approach. At Fairmont Waterfront, he leads the kitchen with creativity and care, guiding a team dedicated to crafting memorable dining experiences from garden to plate. 

When he’s not behind the pass, you’ll find Chef Harris foraging in local markets, exploring BC’s coastal foodways, or tending to the rooftop garden that inspires much of ARC's signature cuisine. 

Pure coastal luxury - served daily.
