Team Building Activity: Celebrating French Cooking Traditions
Join Chef Paul for a team building activity where your team will learn how to prepare classic French dishes using traditional French cooking techniques. You'll warm up your teamwork skills by preparing a traditional French vinaigrette to serve with a mesclun salad. Then, for the salmon entrée, Chef Paul will teach you and your team a classic French technique known as "en papillote," in which you'll use steam to gently cook ingredients in parchment paper. For the side dish, you'll make a flavorful quinoa, lentil and vegetable medley, honing your knife skills in the process. Lastly, you'll conclude the night by working together to make decadent profiteroles topped with warm chocolate sauce.

Chef Paul was very knowledgeable and funny! I have a little bit of experience cooking and I still took a lot away from this class. He very thoroughly answers any questions you have and is patient and encouraging. I will definitely go back for another class!

Born and raised in Belgium, Chef Paul began his nearly 40 year career as a professional chef as an apprentice. After receiving his culinary arts degree, he worked in several restaurants in Belgium, gaining experience and insight along the way. He moved to NYC in 1983 and quickly became the executive chef at well-known restaurants in Tribeca and the West Village. His passion for teaching led him to open his own cooking school in 2001, which is still thriving today.
