Overview

Begin your local French culinary experience with a walk through the town's open farmer's market (if you choose the market tour option) with your host, a passionate foodie. Meet Alexia's favorite vendors, discover regional organic produce and locally crafted cheese and purchase a few ingredients that you will use during your cooking class. Return to Alexia's home kitchen in her Bohemian chic apartment in a leafy and peaceful residential neighborhood of Annecy with a view of the mountains. During your cooking demonstration, watch as Alexia prepares a modern, globally influenced French meal - dishes such as local ricotta cheese with herbs or a beet spread on organic sourdough, salad (Alexia style) and farm-raised chicken with Thai flavored vegetables and rice - that you will share together at the dining table over wine.

Itinerary

If you choose the market tour, visit the Old Town market on Tue and Fri and the Boulevard Taine market on Sat. Walk through an open farmer’s market with Alexia and meet her favored farmers. Discover organic regional produce and locally crafted cheeses, learn how to choose the freshest produce and purchase a few ingredients for your cooking class. Your market tour will last about one hour before walking back 15 minutes to Alexia’s apartment. At Alexia's home sip a refreshing drink and join her in her kitchen to learn to cook a modern, globally influenced French meal from recipes that Alexia has created herself. Your cooking demonstration will last about an hour and a half. Please note that this is not a hands-on class, rather a cooking demonstration where you will watch your host prepare three dishes from scratch, as Alexia's kitchen is small. Discover the techniques that Alexia employs while creating your French meal and enjoy learning about modern French cuisine before you sit down to share a meal. This host offers 3 experience options: Meal only, Cooking Class + Meal and Market Tour + Cooking Class + Meal. You can select the exact experience type when making your booking.

Amazing morning & afternoon!

Published on Nov, 2024

My husband and I truly enjoyed our day excursion with Alexia. From shopping at a local market - to cooking an amazing lunch with multiple courses from scratch - to enjoying a bottle of wine & learning about the history of Annecy. She also gave us wonderful restaurant recommendations. Thank you Alexia!

Great journey for food agnostics and connoisseurs alike

Published on Oct, 2024

From our meeting at the market through finishing our meal, Alexia was kind, warm, and informative. I'm not nearly as attuned to food as my partner, but even I developed a better awareness of the ingredients, the importance of sourcing locally, and the thought process behind the preparation of the meal. I'm very glad we decided to do this and grateful to Alexia for hosting and cooking for us.
