Baking experience - Excellent authentic experience maikng bread and madelines. Lovely host who was very cheerful, helpful and knowledgable about the process. However I thought it was overpriced. We only made three simple things. Probably the location made it expensive. Also at no point did I see the Eiffel Tower
