Throughout the lesson, his knowledge and expertise with French pastries were clear, which enabled us to get the answers to our queries.

  • 5/5 from Charmaine Montgomery, attended Nov 2023: Francois made making macarons look so easy! He explained the recipes well, and we’ve come away with a variety of recipe flavours, lots of ideas, and the confidence to try them at home. The venue was good, with sufficient parking. We couldn’t find the kitchen initially though. Francois had sent a map, but I couldn’t find the email when we got there. I would suggest allowing yourself a little extra time to get there early to find the kitchen and settle in to enjoy the demonstration.
  • 5/5 from Sherry Robson, attended Jul 2023: The class was really informative and moved at a good pace to follow along and absorb the methods being demonstrated.

Would definitely do another cooking course with Francois.
