We are in SAVEUR! Journalist and Saveur kitchen director Hunter Lewis, and photographer Penny de los Santos joined us here on Kea in-between our two May 2010 programs. Together we cooked and grilled, enjoyed lunches and dinners, while tireless Penny recorded everything in her inspiring photographs. Here is part of Hunter’s article is Saveur magazine:	PROGRAMS 2012 APRIL 30 TO MAY 5  MAY 21 TO 26 JUNE 25 TO 30 SEPTEMBER 10 TO 15 OCTOBER 8 TO 13 (Olive picking & pressing) Click for COST etc.
«If there’s a paradise on earth for a seafood lover like me, it is Kea --more specifically, the outdoor kitchen where Aglaia, a journalist and cookbook author, runs a cooking school with her husband, Costas Moraitis. The week I spent there, learning the Greek way with fish, was like a waking dream. [...] Over the course of a few days, my world seemed to shrink to the confines of Aglaia and Costas’s yard.
It was where we cooked (once using a rustic coal-heated oven called gastra), where we ate, where we picked the fresh herbs, dug the carrots, and cut the artichokes to accompany our meals. ...Costas and I hiked down an old stone path to the remains of the ancient city of Karthaia, where we foraged for the wild capers that grow on bushes in the shadow of a ruined temple of Apollo, built in 530 B.C. [...] When we got back to the house, Aglaia soaked the capers in a jar of brine to mellow their bitter edge and then started to butterfly the fresh sardines we’d bought that morning, [...] rinsing the fish with vinegar, and laying them in a bath of olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and parsley for a simple meze. “Poor man’s food,” she said as we sat down to eat.»
