Cooking Classes in Les Halles of Avignon :
The classes meet at 9:00am at my restaurant Cuisine Centr'Halles inside Les Halles of Avignon. We begin by venturing into the market to discuss & build our menu together, to see what's freshest and to shop for our ingredients. Along the way we'll enjoy tastings at a few of my favorite purveyors while discussing the specialties of Provence.
We then return to my kitchen and begin preparing our meal. After our class, you will be invited to sit at the communal tables while our restaurant staff serve what we've prepared for your lunch along with local wines, mineral waters and coffee. The entire event comes to an end between 13:30 & 14:00. Generally we prepare a Provencal aperitif, main course and dessert. The class with lunch and the above included is 85€ per person on weekdays, 95€ per person on weekends.
Available: Tuesdays - Sundays
Cooking Classes are available for private parties, please enquire for details.
Cooking Demonstration
I also offer cooking demonstrations which are lighter versions of the class for 40€ per person. These meet at 9:00am and enjoy the same market tour with tastings as the cooking class but then return to my kitchen to prepare my 2 tapenades to snack on while enjoying them with a glass of rosé.
The event is finished at 10:30. Lunch is not included with this but priority reservations are given to people participating in the demonstration if you wish to continue the event. Available: Tuesdays - Sundays
