First we visited a local market, which was more that just browsing a market. We learned about fruit and vegetables, how to eat seasonal food, how to pick and what to choose, and how food distribution is made in Paris ; and of course, how to make a delicious menu. Everything was well organized and prepared, We cooked a typical... More

My sister and I were in Paris for her birthday and decided that a cooking class was a must! We did some research but didn't want a 'school' experience. Marie's "A World in a Pan" was the perfect experience. We were met at the market where we chose our menu and bought fresh ingredients and then we walked back to... More

We had a perfect experience at the cheese class. We learned a lot, ate a lot, and we were treated like special guests. There were four of us and no one wanted to go home. Thank you , Marie, for a very special time. L.Braude More

We had a wonderful time with Marie (and her friend, Marion, who was her able assistant for our class). And the food was fabulous. We will make several of the recipes back home. It truly was one of our best experiences. Marie is used to explaining cooking to travellers and provides information in U.S. measurments as well as European. She... More

My experience was terrific! Marie was at once warm and professional. She made the entire experience from choosing the menu, to shopping at the market, to praying and eating the food a memorable and thoroughly Parissian experience. If you are looking to learn some French techniques in a home cooking environment, this is for you! I highly recommend it. More

My adult daughters and I recently enjoyed a lovely afternoon with Marie and her World in a Pan class. We requested a vegetarian meal which Marie graciously planned for us. We enjoyed Marie's warm hospitality and her expertise in the kitchen. Her home was a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of Paris. And then the meal.....from beginning to... More

My friend and I took Marie's class as a result of the reviews of others and agree that it was one of our most memorable experiences in Paris. We got valuable information about buying produce and cheese at the lovely farmer's market and cheese shop. Our menu included duck l'orange, pea soup (since peas were in season), cheese souffle, fingerling... More

Our group of four had a wonderful time cooking with Marie in her lovely Paris apartment. We all agreed that it was one of the high points of our week in France. Marie was so welcoming and made cooking a gourmet meal seem so effortless. She gave us so many tips and ideas that we can take home and try... More

My wife wanted to surprise me in Paris with something different, away from the usual museums and tourist attractions. She found "World in a Pan" and I immediately went for it. It is a great way to spend time together, learn to cook things to impress your friends back home and also learn about France through its typical cuisine. Also,... More

Delightful, insightful, intriguing and inviting. The home was extremely clean and proper and much thought was given to the placement and origination of the kitchen and dinning room. The teacher was deeply knowledgeable about all matters of food. She was approachable for beginners and professional for the senor cookers. Obviously the meal was fabulous and even the shorter classes are... More
