Luc was our guide and chef, and did a really great job. We enjoyed shopping for ingredients at the market just a few blocks away from the Le Foodist kitchen. Once back to the kitchen, Luc gave us the run down of what we would be making. Instructions were clear, and we all worked together to put a 3 course lunch together. I even learned a few cool new techniques such as a simple "sous vide" by tightly wrapping chicken in plastic wrap and cooking in hot water. Fun, educational and delicious. They offer a variety of different classes and I would highly recommend when visiting Paris.

The process was so easy and friendly from start to finish - booking with Fred was prompt and very accommodating, and Chef Stefane welcomed us in making us feel like we were visiting a friend in Paris. The facility was clean and beautifully appointed (and air conditioned!), making a comfortable experience. All 4 of us enjoyed the process, learned so much, and loved the tea while we sampled our finished product. We took the extras with us - what a treat for days! In addition, Stefane went above and beyond to help us plan our remaining days in Paris - we were so grateful for his kindness and local knowledge! Highly recommend, and we will definitely be back when we visit again!

They have some lockers up front for your belongings and a coat rack. Our guests were late. The ladies let us in to a waiting area where they had snacks and coffee/tea. We hung out on the couches. The chef was so kind as to wait to start the class for us and she even stayed late so we had our full class time. Wow. We made croissants and other pastries. The recipes were given to us via QR code at the end of the class. We were able to ask questions throughout. Chef was making jokes and making sure everyone was pulling their weight. In the end, she created a gorgeous table scape of our items and even organized them as to who made what. We worked in teams and I think the lady team items looked better than the guy team items. Haha. Everything tasted good though! Chef opened a bottle of champagne for us at the end and we drank and ate. We took everything home in large paper bags to savor again. The class was so fun and very safe. It was worth every penny. In fact just being on their email list is worth it. They have wonderful emails with recipes!

The class was on Pate A Choux pastry and the group of 6 included a 10 year old girl who was participating in a lot of the "decorating" activities but was not really old enough to handle the cooking process. I felt that in the end the Religieuse came out awful in appearance and not well made to even take a picture. The fondant topping came out of a can and the chef said that the fondant recipe would not be taught because it is usually purchased in a supermarket (!). This was a total waste of 90 Euros, which is a large amount for a class where only two items were taught, and ingredients came out of a can. I have taken several classes in Paris and felt that this was not up to par with others at all.

The class was held in French and i was the only student who did not speak it so they gave me an interpreter who professionally translated everything our teacher was saying. Speaking of the teacher, he was very friendly, engaging and skilled . Their kitchen is huge and really well equipped. Our class i think lasted about three hours and it was pure joy. We made two kinds of very tasty ice-cream. The process was rather complicated but it was very well explained, not rushed and it was just fun. We also made meringue, sauce and some edible decor to go with the ice-cream. Of course at the end of the class we ate our creations. It tasted really good. They gave us the recipe and step-by-step instructions to take home. I would give this place ten stars. I will definitely attend more classes at the Ritz when i visit Paris next time.

Never are you in such a position to cook this way yet I was able to bring lessons home to our own kitchen. The day started with meeting the concierge who guided us 'behind closed doors' and into the depths of the Ritz. Surprisingly, the back of house is quite nice and took me by surprise. We met our two chefs in a good size room adjacent to the main kitchen. The lesson room included a full kitchen, a large prep table, selves full of dry goods and china, and a large dinning table. From the first moment we started preparing courses and learning about every step. Wine and small dishes (we prepared) were served throughout the day. Finally, my group and our two chefs sat down for a lovely meal and interesting conversation (in English). A great experience.

My best friend is on crutches, and he did absolutely everything he could to help her in an environment that is not easy for people on crutches, as there are narrow stairs you need to climb. We started by learning about cheese aging, which is more interesting than it sounds then we jump right into making our cheese and butter! It's really amazing how quickly you can make it. And it was really amazing how delicious it was... Especially the butter. At the end of the class, Pierre brought out wine and some additional cheeses, and we all had our butter and cheese on baguette with wine. This was such an unexpected highlight during our trip. We only did it because we had "cooking class" on a list of things to do in 2023, and we were all so glad that we did it! Highly recommend!
