The experience was excellent. The chef/teacher was fantastic. He not only taught us great methods but also a treasure of food history dating back to the Middle Ages all the way to the present. He was excited with all our questions. To top everything, the food we helped prepare was delicious. Our chef, Paolo, was magnificent. Our fellow classmates, from all over the world made the evening special.

We had the best time with Fred, he was knowledgeable and encouraging. We got to shop for, then cook an excellent meal having so much fun with the group we were with, this event has been well thought out and truly gives a wonderful tour of the Latin quarter as well as a glimpse of French cooking. The recipes were also sent to us. I would highly recommend this experience.




We had a wonderful experience at our cooking class with Paulo, including the market visit. Paulo explained a lot about how to purchase fish at the Fish market as well as how to purchase cheese. The location of the class was intimate and beautiful, and the hands-on instruction was fantastic.





Bonjour Matia, Thank you for your wonderful review of your Market Visit and Cooking Class in Paris at Le Foodist with your Chef Paulo. I am glad you enjoyed his guidance on how to choose produce - from fish to cheese - at the market. And I am glad you enjoyed both our venue and the hands-on instruction. Merci beaucoup Fred
We met Paulo and several other couples at one of the local markets in town. Paulo arrived right on time and greeted everyone in the group. He started off by explaining the schedule for the evening and then made sure everyone was satisfied with the menu options. He did make accommodations for a few people who preferred a difference main dish.

Bonjour, and thank you for your wonderful review of your Evening Market Visit Cooking Class in Paris at Le Foodist with your Chef Paulo. I am delighted you enjoyed it all from the very start. Helping people understand where everything comes from is exactly what we strive for, and I am glad you enjoyed learning about this in the context of seafood, dairy and livestock that evening. And I am glad the social nature of our class worked so well for you. And while prepping, cooking and plating together, taking turns at each station, is the heart of the evening, I am equally happy you enjoyed meeting the other couples and working side by side. We too believe that cooking and eating are best lived as shared experiences. This is very much the French way, and an immediate taste of French culture. And I am glad of course you enjoyed all aspects of Paulo's personality — fabulous and phenomenal from beginning to end indeed. Last but not least, thank you for the high recommendation of our cooking and baking classes. Merci beaucoup! Fred
