Morning classes will begin with an outdoor market tour, where we will shop for fruits and vegetables, meat, bread, cheese, fish and poultry. Then we will take the ingredients into Patricia Well’s stunning cooking studio on rue Jacob in the heart of Saint-German-des-Pres. There, I will lead students through the preparation of a simple lunch which will include wines and cheeses from small quality producers throughout France.
For those who prefer an afternoon class, followed by dinner, I will meet students at Patricia's cooking studio on rue Jacob, and lead them through a series of tasting and a demonstration, followed by instructive preparation of a more complex, multi-course dinner. There will be wines and cheeses from small quality producers, and plenty of candlelight. You will receive recipes for each class, which will be yours to keep.
