A Greek Islands Destination Cooking Class (Widescreen Edition)



LOVE/ROMANCE/GREAT FOOD and in an EXOTIC LOCALE ...WOW!!
Through the eyes of the host (Cynthia) I traveled half way across the world and discovered the incredible Greek Isle of Santorini, some fabulous, tasty treats and how to prepare them....WOW!! What a romantic adventure
this trip was and at a fraction of the cost it would have been to fly there myself. The scenery and views were spectacular and I could almost taste the FOOD!! This was a very sensual experience for me. The cooking class-recipes were so easy to follow and the owner, chef and manager of the restaurant (where the class was held) were so loving and kind. Personally, I would book passage just to sit down at a table in this magnificent eatery...oh yes ! I think it was truly special for the host to offer the viewer an intimate glimpse of her wedding/honeymoon and share her love of Greek culture and food in such a remarkable setting; what a unique and precious gift .... so snap up this DVD....ASAP if you are in the mood for scrumptious food....love & romance and breathaking...

This has it all: Comedy, Food, and Romance!
What a little treasure this dvd is! I was looking forward to viewing this dvd, as I am of Greek descent and have visited the beautiful island of Santorini many times. I also enjoy regional Greek Cuisine and found the recipes and techniques in this dvd very intriguing and I think easily adaptable for the home chef. The bonus section at the end showcases various cheeses and herbs of Santorini, and is definitely a visual treat for the most die-hard foodie!

This dvd features a destination cooking class and takes place on the dramatic island of Santorini-- which was the also the setting for the wedding of the filmmakers. Interspersed among the cookery class and food tips are scenes of the natural beauty of the island, and glimpses of a tradional Greek Island wedding. I really liked the personal story and felt like I was experiencing the culture of Santorini, and thought the filmmakers did an excellent job incorporating those extra touches into the finished product...

Santorini Experience
Santorini Experience,
I liked this DVD because I got an overall picture in my mind of Santorini, which I would hope to visit someday soon. I liked the menu and the cooking demonstration from the restaurant. I found it easy and informative. I liked hearing about the native plants that were used for the recipes. To me, interspersing the photos of the wedding and of this incredibly beautiful island only enhanced the DVD for me. I liked the travelogue that went along with the cooking demo. All in all it was fun and informative to watch.
