1 / 8Traditional Christmas Dinner Cooking Class
About this activity
Learn to prepare an authentic French Christmas feast in an intimate Parisian apartment kitchen with a professional chef, then dine on your own three-course creation paired with wine. Limited to 8 participants, this hands-on seasonal class captures genuine holiday culinary traditions while requiring no prior cooking experience.
While in Paris during the holiday season, why not treat yourself with this unique opportunity to cook a succulent, French-style Christmas meal, under the expert guidance of one of our professional chefs? With creative festive recipes that combine healthy, local fresh seasonal ingredients, you'll discover a starter, main dish and dessert that are part of France's Christmas traditions and culinary heritage.
The meal is prepared and cooked in the chef's own kitchen at their Paris apartment, and as the class is limited to 8 participants, this ensures a real hands-on cooking class for everyone. No previous cooking skills are necessary, as you will be coached through every step. Finally, at the end of the class, you'll enjoy the fruits of your labor when you sit down and enjoy the festive three-course meal that you've prepared, accompanied with wine. Your chef will also provide you with the recipes of everything you prepared, so that you can bring to life these holiday traditions back home! This class is only offered for a short period at the end of the year, so be sure to book while you can!
