Focus On: Business in Northumberland - Olympus Burger

George Kallonakis took his concept of a burger challenge that was named after a Greek God and called the Labour of Hercules, and used it as the basis of an entire menu of burgers that matched the personalities of the different Greek deities of Olympus. Opened in July of 2013, fame quickly followed, with being featured on television’s You Gotta Eat Here in 2016, then named Canadian Living’s Best Burger in Canada in 2017, and then becoming Canada’s first Carbon Zero Certified restaurant in 2018. George talks about his inspiration to make the eco-friendly change and what the impact of the pandemic has been to this Port Hope institution.
