Grandma's secret Tarte Tatin and Madeleine Recipe

Welcome to Paris — the city of lights, art, and… pastries! We believe all the best baking recipes are born in grandma’s kitchen. Come bake with French mamies in a charming historic Parisian apartment as they let you in on some of their best secrets: from baking tips to local insights from decades of living in the “City of Lights.” • Before settling into mamie’s apartment, we’ll venture to a nearby bakery that’s popular with locals. Here, we’ll pick up a baguette to enjoy together. • Back at the apartment, we’ll get to the main action: you'll learn how to make the Tarte Tatin and madeleine: two traditional recipes that reflect the stories of amazing women in France. • Then, we’ll sit around the table to enjoy our freshly baked pastries over fragrant tea or a creamy hot chocolate, while listening to grandma's stories and admiring the views of Paris that surround the apartment. Mamie Nina, mamie Daniela, mamie Maria Pine and mamie Myrielle are waiting for you!

We begin with a complimentary French breakfast in the neighborhood Saint-Germain-des-Prés at the café Les Deux Magots, where influential writers such as James Baldwin and Richard Wright spent much of their time. We'll explore many historical sites in and around the 5th and 6th arrondissements as we make our way over to the neighborhood of Pigalle. There we'll discover why the neighborhood at one point earned the nickname "Black Montmartre". But no Black Paris tour would be complete without visiting the historical neighborhood, Chateau Rouge aka Little Africa, with its many shops and businesses. You’ll receive an Unlimited Metro Pass that we’ll utilize to get to locations not within walking distance. The tour will then conclude with an amazing meal together at one of the best African restaurants in the city where we can share our favorite things about the day (Meal Not Included In Price).
