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!

Wine & Cheese Pairing

As a French professionnal sommelier, I propose a premium intimate experience, and I host all the tasting sessions personnally. So if you book this experience, there's no risk to get a random temporary "wine guy " with just an average knowledge about French wines. Once you'll be seated in the charming tasting room in the heart of Latin Quarter, you will discover and taste 4 excellent French wines (2 whites and 2 reds) that you will pair with 4 typical cheeses and some pieces of French baguette. After a quick global introduction about French wine, you will go deeply into the wine regions, the labels of French wines, the grape varietals used etc... All information will be shown on a screen while I will explain in a casual and relax atmosphere details and facts. I'm also here to answer your questions! Wines are coming from small quality winemaker and the cheeses are coming from a famous local cheese shop from the Latin Quarter. You can buy the wine you prefer directly in the place after the tasting session.

Evening Market Visit Cooking Class

We will meet you close to the market at 4:30 pm. We then head to Marché St Germain and share a Parisian markets overview. We talk about the 5 french cheese families along with getting participants to taste our favorite cheese. We also show people how to choose different types of ingredients, from size to origin to freshness. Back from the market around 5:45 pm, we then cook hands-on appetizer, main and dessert - for about 2&1/2 hours. This is obviously based on traditional French cuisine, with a focus on techniques rather than just recipes, so you can re-apply what you learn back home. We share tips and tricks and quite a bit of the science of cooking to explain the why of certain techniques during that part - we find it to be the best way to help people transpose what they learn. Around 8:00 pm, it is time to have dinner with the chef. We serve white and red wines, share stories using the dishes we have prepared to illustrate various aspects of French culture, and participants also have the opportunity to go back to the kitchen to plate the dishes throughout. It will finish probably around 10:00 pm Please makes sure you are comfortable walking and standing for a few hours to join this experience.
