Aurore will warmly welcome you into her beautiful, sun-filled home and garden in Fontainebleau, just a short walk from the heart of town. Begin your French cooking class with a welcome drink as she shares stories from her Parisian upbringing and rich multicultural heritage. Step into her inviting kitchen for a hands-on, seasonal French cooking experience, where you’ll prepare 2–3 authentic dishes from scratch over ~1.5 hours. Aurore delights in sharing her favorite tips, techniques, and family traditions, adding unique twists to beloved French classics.
As you put the finishing touches on your meal, enjoy a tasting of cheeses from a local fromagerie, paired with freshly baked bread.
