Private cooking class and meal with Michelin-star trained chef Gerald
Gerald is a lively chef with a great sense of humor who has called Provence home for over 30 years. Enjoy a private, 4-hr cooking class with a Michelin-star trained chef, and master the art of creating a gourmet three-course meal in a fun, relaxed setting. Under Gerald's expert guidance, prepare a tantalizing starter, an exquisite main course, and a decadent dessert, all inspired by the vibrant flavors of Provence. Your experience takes place in Gerald's professional cooking studio, attached to his home. After the hands-on lesson, savor the fruits of your labor paired with carefully selected local French wines. Leave with new culinary skills, recipes to recreate the magic at home, and unforgettable memories of an authentic Provençal experience. On Sundays, you can enhance your experience with a 1.5 hour market tour. Gerald will drive groups of up to four to the Marché Paysan de Coustellet; larger groups should arrange their own transportation. At the market, Gerald will help you select top-quality seasonal ingredients and teach you how to choose the best produce like a local. Back at his studio, you'll create a custom menu based on your market finds for a true taste of Provence.

Cooking with Gerald in beautiful Provence

We had the best time cooking with Chef Gerald at his beautiful home and kitchen in Gordes! Had the best sweet breads and stuffed zucchini, stuffed cabbage with vegetables and the most delicious dessert of poached peaches with fresh vanilla bean whipped cream and ice cream with a raspberry compote. Gerald was the best host and chef! Would highly recommend this private cooking experience in beautiful Provence.

10/10 experience!

We were four family members and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience with Gerald. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient with us novices. He immersed us in cutting techniques, experiencing local foods , and plating in a real chef’s kitchen! We all loved it and would definitely do it again. His wife was so sweet and an accomplished sommelier! 10 of 10!
