During this two-hour cuisine workshop, participants prepare a recipe for an hour and a half, then it's time for tasting!

The recipes are adapted to the seasons; in summer, for example: Garden tomatoes, octopus with Espelette pepper, burrata, raspberry pesto with pomegranate; Fresh vegetable and king prawn spring rolls with Vietnamese sweet and sour sauce.
