Cooking Classes in Aix-en-Provence, France

Imagine a relaxing day in Provence among platan alleys, lavender fields, and endless vineyards. Start your day as all French do with a cup of freshly brewed coffee and chocolate croissant in a small local café. Than stroll through the farmer’s market and fill your straw basket with local specialities: cheeses, meats, just picked fruits and veggies and, of course, flowers. Cook exquisite meals and enjoy slow lunch and a glass of wine from Chateauneuf-Du-Pape with your friends. Finish your day wandering around Cassis, a tiny old town and port with cobbled streets, pretty cottages and turquoise waters.
