Immersive Cooking Experience - Well rounded French cooking experience in the heart of Paris. Starting with the introduction to markets, we learned how food is sourced and labeled, identifying unique aspects to various types of produce and cheeses found in France compared to the USA. The cooking session was organized, in a modern and clean kitchen facility. Luc was our guide and instructor, providing excellent direction and explanations of our three courses. We created French onion soup, coq au vin (with chicken, no rooster!) using a quick sous vide method, and Floating Clouds for dessert. I would say everyone in our class had a love for cooking, but each came away with new ideas and techniques. I've made French Onion Soup before, this one was better. (NOW I have a new secret ingredient!) I even learned a new way to prepare carrots for my side dish! The dessert was new to us, we will want to make this for guests someday. The time passed quickly as we made our way around the kitchen, learning from each other and with a few good laughs (and a few sips of wine) along the way. Did we mention Luc brought a sense of humor even though he is quite a serious chef?!! And we enjoyed our delicious meal at the end! Highly recommend this course. Bon appetit!

What a great evening cooking class French Dinner - I attended the dinner cooking class with wine plus market visit option hosted by Luc at Le Foodist. Great experience cooking class with Luc. This class was very fun and provided fantastic tips and tricks. Luc is wonderful, super nice, patient, highly educated chef shared his knowledge of French cuisine, so personable, very detailed in answering the questions. Highlight of my Paris trip in April 2025, the best time! I enjoyed this class. I would highly recommend this class which provided a great break between museum visits. This class is a must on a visit to Paris. Thank you very much, merci Luc! I‘ d do it again for sure.

Cooking class with Le Foodist - The evening was delightful and informative. I would recommend doing the market portion in addition to the cooking class, as it’s interesting. Our chef, Luc, was wonderful! He was informative regarding our food and cooking preparation, as well as historical information about French cuisine. I would definitely attend again! Merci Luc!

The most amazing thing we did in Paris - This was such a great experience! Don’t leave out the market/shopping part, that was informative and fun. Also there was one couple who signed up for a private session.. and I wondered maybe we should have done that, but by the end of the evening when they were sitting alone we had made friends with 12 other people of all nationalities that we had spent the evening drinking wine, laughing and cooking with many of whom we ended exchanging contract information with to get together later. Our chef Paulo was great and kept us chopping and learning while having a great time. Would highly recommend!

We cooked some delicious food. - We cooked some great food and had some good instruction and lots of fun. Our recommendation is the evening could be a little shorter….5 hours + was a bit long for us. We would cut out the market next time. Maybe start the actual cooking a bit earlier and finish earlier:)
