Gift voucher

Chef Eric Fraudeau and the chefs of Cook’n with Class Paris bring you a 5-day culinary program in Paris filled with markets, pastries, wine & champagne, and more. This package will include 4 days of cooking lessons & a full-day tour in Reims (Champagne). You’ll enjoy tasting and touring in Paris, Rungis, and Champagne.

When creator and chef-owner of Cook’n with Class, chef Eric Fraudeau started the school back in 2007, his dream was to share his passion and love for French cuisine with visiting tourists. He was the first French chef to jump into offering French cooking classes in Paris taught in English. With the success of the culinary vacation package – Week in Uzès, where chef Eric invites a small group of participants to take part in a week-long culinary experience in Provence, the demand and interest in creating a similar but different culinary experience in Paris, was born.

French Cooking Vacations in Paris

In the style of Cook’n With Class, this week will be fun, informative, and delicious. We’ll work with the best seasonal produce and enjoy guided tours with expert guides. You will work with recipes that you can easily recreate at home. Some of the lessons you will encounter include bread-making, charcuterie, French dessert, champagne tasting, beer & cheese tasting, and more. You’ll be part of a small group of participants enjoying the best of Paris.
