This past summer I had the pleasure of visiting many of the islands in the southern Aegean known as the Dodecanese (Twelve Islands). I began in Rhodes and ended up in Patmos and along the way I witnessed the beauty of these islands, made new friends with the locals and tasted first hand the uniquely cuisine from this region.
Please join me on Sunday, October 25th at St. Lawrence Market Kitchen. I’ve come up with a menu that was inspired by my almost two weeks touring the Dodecanese. If you’ve been to these islands, you will recognize these dishes and to the others, I offer you a southern Aegean feast that will transport your tastebuds!
All the dishes will be prepared using Cretan olive oil from Nisos Importing.
