The perfect macaron cooking class for my teenage kids and I!

5.00We so enjoyed our macaron baking class. Our pastry chef was awesome. Her pace was perfect and it was very easy to understand and follow her directions. I read the reviews before I booked, some of which mentioned that they felt cheated because we don’t make the merengue shells in class and instead make the fillings and use pre-made shells. But that part made total sense to me. It’s not actually culinary school, it’s a 90 minute long demonstration. Not enough time for a group of that size to make your own shells and fillings. We learned the differences in merengues and many helpful tips to use when we try the recipe at home (which we are trying today!) Plus, the Galleries Lafayette is a beautiful store with something for everyone. It was a great choice for my daughters and I!
Must Do!!

1.00We came from Lyon to Paris using train at 1.08 PM to reach our cooking class lesson at 5 PM. However, there was an incident in which signalization cable was cut on the railway to Paris Gare de Lyon . As such, the entire trains were delayed. We tried to get another train around 4 PM and finally reached Paris at 9 PM after multiple delays along the way. We missed our cooking class and Viator did not want to give us a refund.
Highly recommended
