Cooking demonstrations are a fun and light alternative to cooking classes. These begin at 9 a.m. with a meeting inside the market at the Cuisine Centr'Halles. We start with a market visit and tastings at some of my favorite vendors. We then return to the kitchen to prepare my tapenade recipes and some other daily preparations.

3.00It shows 9:30 on my ticket but started at 9am. No one even trying to contact me telling me the time changed. The course itself was great, the food was amazing.
Great experience! Excellent instructor!

5.00From the first moment to the last, we had a terrific time. Our chef is extremely knowledgeable and personable, and he had so many tips and techniques to share. We had one other couple joining us for the class, and the time we all spent together was warm and welcoming. I think any skill level would find the morning equally rewarding. The meal we prepared, (with a lot of guidance and help, of course) was delicious from the goat cheese entree to the creme brulee dessert. We highly recommend this experience. [By the way, when you're checking in at the beginning of class, follow the directions exactly, but look for a cute little restaurant, not a person.]
Fun and delicious experience with Jonathan.

5.00I highly recommend this experience, it was well worth our time! We learned about French cheeses, unique garlic preparation, and the proper way to cut an onion. We picked out fish from a market fishmonger, prepped the fish, roasted vegetables, prepared a cheesy leek appetizer, prepped a well-seasoned polenta, and observed the baking of a unique sweetbread for our dessert. Our chef was very experienced, yet sociable and funny, while constantly explaining in English and French. There were few, if any, empty chairs at the restaurant, leaving the impression it was quite popular with the locals and tourists alike.
