A must do Parisian culinary experience.

This was a wonderful culinary experience. Chef Dominique demonstrated various techniques and then let us loose in his kitchen. There were two other couples in our group and we all enjoyed the afternoon. The end result was a meal to enjoy - from appetizer through to dessert.

Call Viator directly for the address, have them emailYou while on phone with them before you proceed.

The chef experience was excellent. We made duck with a plum sauce and dessert and a celery root salad. He served wine, champagne and a wonderful assortment of cheeses that he explained the regions and the families they were from. We had a major problem with the directions given from Viator which resulted in us missing the morning session. I called Viator after paying 25 euros in cab fare to a location that didn't exist. The person called me back and kindly got us into the evening class which was another 35 euros in cab fare though. I forwarded the information to Viator. Make sure you call them for the address do not rely on the directions given by email which directs you to Viator. 3 times I checked the address and Viator app kept giving me address that wasn't real until I spoke to them. Once we got to the apartment it was a wonderful experience and worth every penny.
