Summary:
What a WONDERFUL way to spend an afternoon! Stephane Was AMAZING! He was knowledgeable, professional, kind and had a great sense of humor. We learned so much and feel so much more confident in continuing our adventure of making macarons on our own, once we get home from our trip. I would highly recommend any of the classes offered by Le Foodist. You won’t be disappointed!

Summary:
This Macaron class was a gift of experience for my daughter's 16th birthday. Easy directions to find location. Great communication from Le Foodist. Family of 4 from the US with two teenage daughters had the most enjoyable and educational memorable event with Chef Florence. This class is limited to 8 participants and lucky for our family, it was just the 4 of us! Hands on instruction from start to finish with clear explanation of the "why's" in Parisian macaron baking. Chef Florence was personable and fun! She humored us with our American "6, 7" teenager ways. We absolutely adored her! An unforgettable family memory forever embedded in our hearts. We ate macarons that we baked for 3 days! Thankfully, we walked all over Paris for 4 days

Summary:
This class was the highlight of our visit to Paris. Fanny was THE BEST! She is so much fun and had us laughing the whole time. I certainly learned a lot and hope to make a better attempt of macarons at home. Our two teens felt so included and engaged the whole time. I only wish we could have taken more classes while we were there.
