It doesn't stand out, it rents a venue, hands out flyers, sells seats, and merchandise and throws a huge concert with A list celebrity performers, with a side stage for local talents. & face-paints & a carousel. Compliments are received with modest thanks and shy, appreciative smile I enjoy the creativity and design that go into playing the dish. I always enjoy shopping for ingredients. Meeting farmers and distributors and searching at farmers markets, co-ops and ranches. But the best is the discovery of new and unorthodox methods in using them.

Cooking came very early to me as I was raised on a farm in Brittany, France where we ate everything we grew and raised. Equally early and just as strong came my passion for travelling which brought me to America for a year when I was 17 and back to live at 22 in San Francisco. With my different career paths and personal interests I have been lucky to travel a few many good places in the world, as I always have been wanting to learn from other cultures, especially via cuisine and music. My style of cooking is pragmatic with solid dishes full of flavor and soul. I look forward to meeting and cooking with you!...

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

How much do cooking classes cost near me?

Cooking classes cost $60 to $140 per person for a one-time in-person class or $200 to $500 for a class including three to five sessions where you'll learn to create different meals from a specific region or type of cuisine. Online cooking classes cost $20 to $100.

The cost of cooking classes depends on:

  • Class length
  • Group class vs. private lesson
  • Beginner or advanced skill level
  • Type of cuisine
  • Recipe difficulty
  • Chef's or instructor's reputation
  • Location
  • Hands-on vs. demonstration-only
  • Whether the class focuses on teaching a specific culinary technique or recipe or is a collaborative class where each student prepares one part of the overall menu

How long are cooking classes?

In-person cooking classes typically last 2 to 3 hours, depending on the class type and size, whether it's hands-on or demonstration-only, and the cuisine type. Most online cooking classes are 1 to 2 hours long.

What types of cooking classes are there?

Cooking classes range from introductory lessons that teach you basic culinary techniques to advanced classes that teach you how to prepare a five-course meal from scratch. Date night classes are a popular way to bond with your partner while learning how to prepare delicious meals.

Common cooking class types and topics include:

  • Handmade pasta

Should I tip the cooking class instructor?

Tipping the instructor at a group cooking class is not expected. If you enjoy the class, post a positive review online and consider sharing photos and the school's information on social media.

For private classes from a chef, tip 15% to 25% for exemplary service.
