About this tour
Learn to cook French home-style dishes in a lived-in kitchen with a chef who sources everything from her local Thursday market and nearby producers. Over three hours, you'll plan the menu together—whether casual weeknight fare or more elaborate fare—accounting for your tastes and dietary needs. Working with seasonal ingredients, often picked the same morning, you'll master techniques that work at your own table back home.

- Source ingredients from Thursday market vendors

What to expect
You'll arrive at a proper French home—not a cooking school. The chef walks you through selecting dishes that suit your preferences and any allergies, then you head to the weekly market together or she shows you what arrived that morning. Back in the kitchen, you'll prep and cook side-by-side, learning her approach to seasonal produce and technique. The meal you've made becomes lunch, eaten together with wine. It's practical, unhurried cooking designed to translate to your own kitchen.
Good to know
Book ahead to discuss dietary requirements and preferred dishes. The market runs Thursday mornings; session timing works around that. Not suited to under-14s. Public transport nearby if you need it. Some premium ingredients may incur extra cost.
