Our session was enjoyable and we learned how to make the perfect macaron. Jean is an expert chef and provides clear direction on what to do. The only flaw was that we were expecting a private session and were surprised when two other people showed up for the class. Apparently the class can be up to four people. Good experience

Everything about the private dining was exceptional! Excellent food setting and the host puts on a dinner worth the price of admission! Amazing dining experience!

My husband loves to make macarons and wanted some tweaks to improve the process. Well, Jean-Yves entirely changed his mind on how to perfect the process. Now home, we can hardly wait to jump in and try our new tips and tricks.
It was such a delightful macaron class, in a beautiful setting, we decided to come to one of his dinners the following week. The French/Asian fusion was delightful and our tastebuds are so incredibly happy we returned, bringing along some friends to experience the ambiance and food with us.
Jean-Yves, and Fred, were the perfect hosts. When we return to Paris we will definitely have dinner again with them. Amazing Class on Macarons!

Our evening with Jean Yves was fantastic. His unique fusion of food from Asian cultures combined with French cooking was something to behold. (I even enjoyed mushrooms for the first time in my life!). It is obvious why he achieved the honor of "Master Chef". The atmosphere in his dining room was beautiful, and we enjoyed socializing with the other guests at the table. We highly recommend this experience to all!
Stan & Holly A unique foody experience

It is a pricey experience, but it is very intimate, very thorough, and very delicious. We took our kids, and they were so absorbed and enchanted when they watched Jean put the macaron masterpieces together. The venue was cosy, unique and totally added to the experience. Jean was friendly, professional, attentive with the children, and created a magical flare for our Paris cooking family adventure.Magnificent Macaroons

My daughter and i had a wonderful exclusive tutorial in how to expertly make French macarons, we were given a recipe card and I took many notes to help me remember the details of the techniques we were shown. We were then treated to a gourmet tasting of what was created with additional gastronomic flourishes (and champagne!), and we took the remainder of the batch of macarons away with us. This was a beautifully tailored and exclusive experience that I would recommend to anyone!Excellent!
