Wonderful Class! - This pastry making class was full of great tips on how to make both Eclairs and Cream Puffs. Our chef was fun, personable and kind, going above and beyond to support each attendee.

Enough to share - This class was instructive. I learned how detailed baking can be. Down to the gram, millimeter and second. If you can follow instructions TO THE LETTER you can create good-tasting sweet treats. Fortunately, Stephane Jimenez was there to keep my wife and me on track. You will bring home more than enough eclairs and chous for two. Plan to share with two or three friends or relatives when you bring them home.

So fun and so delicious! - What a wonderful experience!!! I am on a solo trip to Paris and took this class. Luc our chef was so kind and clear with his instructions and guidance. I have always wondered how to make cream puffs and this class made it easy and demystified all the hard parts. The other students were so friendly and funny. The kitchen is nice and overall it was a fantastic experience. The cream puffs were absolutely delicious and I had a bunch to take back to my hotel!! Thank you Luc!!

Excellent choux pastry class - Le Foodist was recommended to us by friends who had just been to Paris. The choux pastry class was excellent. Very small group--my family of 3 and another 2 people--and very hands on. Chef Stephane was great: both charming and professional. Made us "home bakers" feel confident enough to recreate the pastry at home. The setting was warm and inviting, and coincidently was within walking distance of our AirBnB. We had the chance to sample our eclairs and cream puffs, and Stephane gave us some additional recommendations for dinner during our stay. I would recommend this course and Stephane, and will definitely take another class if/when I visit Paris again.

What a great experience! - This was one of the highlights of our trip to Paris! We had an absolutely wonderful class with our instructor Stephane, who was a Michelin starred chef who has worked at some of the finest restaurants in the world. Not only was he a kind and patient pastry instructor but he was a great host as well, regaling us with many entertaining stories and anecdotes of the restaurant industry. We would recommend this experience (and Stephane!) in a heartbeat to anyone who wants a unique and fun Parisian experience. Thanks again!

Croissant Class - AWESOME! - The best baking class we've ever experienced! It is a very beautiful, charming, and stylish building. The baker (instructor) is very warm and personable. The process is broken down into simple steps and it is SO much fun! Luc (Baker) made it amazing! The cost is well worth it! You'll get a lot for your money!

Croissant Making - Croissant making class with Chef Stephane was very informative and went over the process step by step. Stephane was a great teacher and the class was small. This was the highlight of our day!

Highly recommend - Highly recommend a cooking class at Le Foodist while in Paris for a truly authentic experience. Our teacher, Stephane, is a Michelin-star chef, and he brought great energy and expertise to the class. All ages enjoyed and took home invaluable tips on making choux pastry, piping and overall culinary skills. Also unlike some other cooking classes, at Le Foodist everyone has their own station so you truly learn a recipe from A to Z as opposed to making a dish as a group. We will most definitely return!

Wonderful learning experience - We were immediately greeted by Fanny upon our arrival at Le Foodist. She warmly introduced herself and informed us that she would be guiding us through the Eclair class. Fanny was extremely knowledgeable and very patient with me, as I had no experience with pastry baking. The entire experience was a delight, the instruction was precise and Fanny was able to rescue my disaster of an attempt at preparation of Crème Pâtissière. Thank you Fanny! I most heartily can recommend both Fanny and Le Foodist for a very professional experience.
