Meeting Maria was one of the best experiences of my trip. I am a chef in Australia and teach cooking classes myself, but spending time with Maira really opened my eyes to a lot of new ideas about food I'd never thought about before. She has great knowledge about edible weeds in Syros and their uses, the class and meal was so interesting it flew by. I would strongly recommend going to see Maria if you have time, I went to Syros exclusively to take a class by her and I'm so happy I did.
