The art of fine French cuisine comes to life in this hands-on cooking class from Chef Washington. Learn the fundamentals of creating your own delicious menu from the country where gourmet cuisine began.
Your lesson begins with authentic mini-croque monsieur made with eggs, ham, cheese and a generous spread of Dijon mustard. Then, you'll create a classic chicken fricassee surrounded by earthy root vegetables roasted until tender. You'll also prepare French crêpes with the addition of tomatoes, Brie cheese and shrimp and bake traditional apple tarts topped with crème fraîche for dessert.

This class was very disappointing and not at all as advertised. The description made it seem like a hands-on cooking class, but it turned out to be more of a social event. At the start, the chef even gave a disclaimer that it wouldn’t be interactive, which was frustrating since that wasn’t mentioned beforehand. The food itself was not good, and the entire experience felt disorganized. The chef appeared uninterested and disengaged, and during the Q&A it seemed like he just wanted to get through it rather than teach or connect with the group. My friends and I were never invited to participate in any part of the cooking, despite being told we might get a chance to help. Overall, it felt like the chef was simply there to get paid and leave. If you’re looking for a true hands-on ramen class where you can learn and cook, this is not it.
