Cook'n With Class Paris

We cooked with Fabrice and had a wonderful time! It was really enjoyable to shop in the market for ingredients together. We had a few items in mind that Fabrice transformed into a well thought out menu. Each step of the way, we learned a lot about how to cook each part of the dish from scratch. We really appreciated the bread, duck pate, and assortment of cheeses and wines that were between courses. Thanks for a great cooking experience in Paris!

When we travel, we enjoy learning to make local dishes that we can cook later when we are home. We had the Bistro Cooking class with Fabrice, and it was awesome. Fabrice has a storied past that he is willing to share during the class. We learned several new techniques for every-day cooking, such as the way Fabrice peels garlic and tips for clean "plating", in addition to making a sumptuous meal. Note that this class is a "group cooking" experience, which means that you do not personally make all the dishes yourself, but the group as a whole, so make sure to pay attention to what others are doing! The escargot, the chocolate mousse, the tuiles, and the dieppoise were the best!

Our five private sessions with Cook’n With Class in Paris were the culinary highlight of our trip! Our group included both teenagers and elders, and every class was designed so everyone could participate, learn, and truly enjoy the experience. From the very first email, the school was wonderfully accommodating to our needs, interests, and preferences. They thoughtfully designed the classes to avoid repetition, and when the same ingredient appeared in two sessions, they showed us a new way to use it—different flavors, techniques, and presentations—making every class fresh and exciting. Chef Christian led our chocolate, baguette, and croissant sessions with contagious enthusiasm. His explanations are clear, his methods easy to follow, and his smile constant. We loved the balance between hands-on practice and learning the theory behind each technique, and we left with skills we can’t wait to use at home. Chef Fabrice took us on a memorable market tour, helping us select the best seasonal ingredients before guiding us through a sauces-focused cooking session. His knowledge of flavors and ability to make complex techniques approachable made the day both delicious and educational. Chef Sarah delighted us with the Marie Antoinette Experience, transporting us to another era through recipes, storytelling, and presentation. Her warmth and attention to detail made it a truly unique and charming class. Cook’n With Class didn’t just give us cooking lessons—they gave us unforgettable moments, new skills, and a deeper appreciation for French culinary traditions. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

I had such a fantastic time at Chef Christian’s cooking class in Paris! It was a truly fun and engaging experience. We learned how to make Choux pastry from scratch and created classic French treats like profiteroles, éclairs, and Paris-Brest. Chef Christian was knowledgeable, patient, and made the whole day enjoyable. Whether you’re a beginner or a passionate home baker, this class is a must-do while in Paris. Highly recommend!

This was our second time here (my wife and I came 15 years ago!). Very fun experience. You start by shopping at local specialty markets for the fresh ingredients then head to their kitchen to cook. The chef was great and taught us a lot. We ended up with a complex menu and we didn’t eat until 10p. They also didn’t serve wine or drinks until probably 9:30 But still a very fun time and a great meal.

Cook’n With Class’ market cooking class was far and away the highlight of our trip to Paris. Chef Fabrice was an absolute delight, and the food was fabulous. We will recommend Cook’n With Class—and this class in particular—to anyone we know planning a trip to Paris.

We just had the most incredible experience with Chef Christian. My family of 4 (myself, my husband, my 9 year old son and 12 year old daughter) made croissants. Chef Christian was so knowledgeable but also engaging and a lot of fun! I feel confident to go home and try this myself! And my kids left with the best core memories!!!! And we were able to take our baked goods home!!!
