Patience Gray was the author of a formidable book, published in 1986, that captures and restores the Mediterranean spirit through the lens of food: Honey from a Weed.

Madame Cadec is also a nomadic cooking project, starting with the tiny kitchen Sara uses every day on her 10m sailing boat which has taken her, so far, halfway

around the Mediterranean.
