Marea, wood fire seafood in Samara

Marea cooks the day's catch over open flame a few steps from the sand in Samara. You sit at the long communal table, order what the boats brought in, and pair it with natural wine from the coast. The kitchen keeps it short and seasonal, so the menu you read tonight is the one the tide wrote this morning.
