On a day tour of Santorini, our guide brought us to this little shop and restaurant in Akrotiri. Well, really it’s in the middle of a field outside of Akrotiri. Anna, the owner, greeted us, and everyone, warmly, and within seconds we were presented with a platter of their homegrown, homemade treats. Jams made of fruits and tomatoes, cheeses, and, most surprising, pickled caper leaves. I didn’t even know capers had leaves, really. But they were delicious. We stayed for lunch and bought several jars of jam to bring home. Since we couldn’t bring home a sunset, it seemed like the next best way to remind us of Santorini.
