Summer is here, and we are heating up with exciting things here at La Cuisine Paris !
For the second year running, during the month of July we have an exciting project that we would love to have you join us for – Lundi with Mardi !
We know how much fun it is to play in the kitchen, so we would like you to join us! A number of clients have asked about getting behind the scenes with us, and here is your chance! We want YOU to help test the recipes that we are developing both for our classes, and for a small cookbook of our favorite classic French dishes !
This July, we will host five free recipe testing workshops here at La Cuisine Paris ! We are looking for six participants per session to be our ‘testers’. The workshops are free and no experience is required, however we do ask that participants be keen recipe enthusiasts, have a good eye for details and of course be enthusiastic about and interested in food ! Each group will test and work through one or two recipe/s from start to finish. All ingredients will be provided for the class – the subject will vary and will only be announced at the beginning of the class. The best part? You'll get to taste the fruits of your labor at the end !
Incubator dates and times are as follows :
July 1st from 14h30 to 16h30 - FILLED
July 8th from 14h30 to 16h30 - FILLED
July 15th from 14h30 to 16h30
July 22nd from 14h30 to 16h30 - FILLED
*July 29th from 14h30 to 16h30
Enrollment for the sessions is on a first come, first served basis. In order to register, follow these simple steps :
- Email us at 'contact 'at' lacuisineparis 'dot' com',
- Subject of the email : Recipe Incubator
- Text of the email : the date of the Incubator you wish to participate in
The last session on July 29th, will be a special ‘homage’ to our lovely clients back at home! Many go home with inspiration from our classes and create their own favorite signature French dish, and we would love to try them out! If you would like to submit your favorite French recipe for us to test and potentially feature in one of our classes, send it to us at: contact 'at' lacuisineparis 'dot' com! One recipe will be selected amongst those submitted, and the winner will get a La Cuisine Paris apron as a special gift! If you would like to participate, here's what to do:
- Email us at: contact 'at' lacuisineparis 'dot' com
- Subject of the email : Test my Recipe!
- Text of the email : a detailed outline of your signature recipe!
*Important points : the workshop is free; the workshop takes place at the school 80 Quai de l'Hôtel de Ville; registration is on a first come first served basis.
Please note, these are NOT cooking classes – they are recipe testing classes. You will be lead and guided by our team member through realization of the recipe.
