This is a Hands-on Cooking & Wine Experience
Summary:
Journey with us to France for an enchanting evening and culinary tour of one of the most romantic gastronomic countries in the world.

You will first be met with a reception wine and enjoy a striking view of our impressive open demonstration kitchen. Chef will walk you through the preparations your meal while you enjoy a sip your wine. Don your apron, roll up your sleeves and get ready to work as a group to help cook each part of the meal at various stations around the kitchen by following recipes with the guidance of your Chef. Throughout the evening you'll learn about the recipes, food preparation, and the "why" behind the wines we pair with the meal.
