Eric Fraudeau
After over 40 years in the food & hospitality industries in France, Alcapulco & Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, Montrรฉal, Canada & the USA, including working in the kitchens of Alain Ducasse & Joel Robuchon, Chef Eric Fraudeauย returned to his native France to embark on new adventures in the place where his career began.
In 2007 he opened Cook’n with Class Paris as a one-man operation, offering French cooking classes to visiting tourists, in English. He was the first French chef to offer such classes full-time in Paris. His concept was simple: Class sizes were always kept small and included market visits as part of the learning experience; the cooking was hands-on; generosity was the modus operandi; the objective was to share French culture through its food.
The Paris school has since grown and expanded from a one-room cooking school to a 2-floor, 3-studio, culinary atelier, including not only cooking classes but also French desserts, baguettes, croissant & cheese & wine classes & more.
In 2015 after moving to Uzรจs, he opened up his second school in Provence, Cook’n with Class Uzรจs, still proposing market visits but this time focusing on Provenรงale and Mediterranean cuisines and introducing a week-long intensive French culinary vacation package to deepen the love of French food & wine always in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere.
Since early 2020, Chef Eric along with his wife Yetunde Oshodi-Fraudeau have been offering in addition to our in-person classes in Paris, online classes & culinary holiday tours in France & Spain through their newest brand, Let’s Eat The World – Culinary experiences for travel lovers
Chef Eric is never short on ideas.
