Top Provence Cooking Classes

Here's an example of a review of the tour: "Had a really great tour of marché Richelme with Edouard, right in the old town of Aix. Edouard asked me what foods I was most interested in and we went to the different stands accordingly. I was after some good jam so Edouard made sure i was able to sample Christophe’s 60% fruit homemade selection. My personal « péché mignon » being cheese, the tour was fantastic (at least 5 or 6 different stands to choose from and.... oh my god that fresh goat cheese!!!) - and i have to say that the surprise coming out of left field (and now a little favorite) was mushrooms.. It’s mushroom season (which i had not payed attention to, but since Edouard goes there every day, he knows !!) All round a great tour for people wishing to discover the southern french markets, or for those (like me) wishing to go on a local product shopping spree. Great tour!" -Olivier Pinard, Paris
