A Fun Educational Experience - Our host, Luke, was patient with the variety of people, their experience and their food preferences. It was raining but they provided umbrellas for the market trip. This was good to learn new cooking techniques and for those just starting. The environment was fun and social.

A Fabulous Family Holiday Evening - This market excursion and cooking class were top notch. A family centered event for 12 was one of the highlights of our holiday trip to Paris. Paulo was outstanding…..a fabulous knowledgable chef who insured we had a great experience. The pacing of the evening was good, the foods—especially the beef bourgonion were simply outstanding. We would all come back in a heartbeat. Paulo is a gem…..

This class is a must! - I could not recommend Le Foodist more! Paulo was thoughtful and welcoming, explained the ingredients and techniques in simple terms, and kept the afternoon light and fun. The food was incredible and something I would actually be able to (and want to) cook again on my own. I plan to come back for another class next time I'm in Paris!

The best! - This was the best class! Frederic is an engaging chef, excellent teacher, and his knowledge of food and the chemistry of cuisine and its preparation is superb. We thoroughly enjoyed this class and what we learned to prepare. We can’t recommend this experience enough, I wish we could take all the classes! Thank you Le Foodist and especially thanks to Frederic!

Fun way to spend a day in Paris - This was an amazing experience. The class takes place in a beautiful space. I learned some very useful techniques for French cooking and got some great tips about other places to visit while in Paris. The chef, Frederic, was very friendly, good at explaining everything and he had a great sense of humor. The class size was just right and the other participants were very fun. A great way to spend a day in Paris meeting new people and eating yummy food. Highly recommend.
