This private, nonresidential school offers French cooking, bread and pastry making plus wine and table service instruction. Again, classes are taught in French with English translation. Marie-Blanche de Broglie has been teaching in her home for the last 20 years. La Cuisine de Marie-Blanche is the name of her school and she teaches some classes and some are taught by the Chef of the Plaza Athen e Hotel. Classes include complete menus for non-professionals with a seated luncheon to follow.
Classes are in French and English.
Dining in Paris And now to the most fun part of my trip. I couldn't wait to experience Parisian restaurants. Gastronomic temples are the starred restaurants, those rated by the Michelin Guides as being superior. These usually offer classic French cuisine, are very elegant and quite costly. A few examples are Taillevent, Guy Savoy, Joel Robuchon, Ledoyen and Tour d'Argent.
