French on your Plate ***BRAND NEW course in Cambridge this December***

“Provençal Christmas Dinner” Workshop

Thursdays 03rd, 10th and 17th December 2009

We are delighted to inform you of the start of our brand new set of workshops combining learning the French language while preparing French regional dishes.

These monthly workshops will comprise of 3 consecutive half day sessions held on Thursdays. You can choose daytime or evening sessions to suit your schedule. You will receive 9 to 12 hours of language tuition based on a different culinary theme each month. All workshops will take place in a spacious fully equipped Lacanche kitchen just outside Cambridge. Prior to preparing dishes, each recipe will be studied to learn any relevant vocabulary, all the while finding out about a region of France and its gastronomic traditions. Each session will be led by two French tutors doubling up as “chefs” for the occasion.



This month, discover the creation of a “Provençal Christmas Dinner” and marvel at the making of the popular “santons” (little saints) for traditional nativity scenes.

"A wonderful way to improve your French while discovering France in the company of French people"

There we go again! The September weekend was a huge success as you will soon hear from the participants themselves and we cannot wait to show you "The Way To France". It's so simple, it's so easy and so enjoyable too. I know there will be many other opportunities in 2010 and many other themes but why not join the club NOW? We are looking into forming a club, a very special club where people from Cambridge and people from Paris will meet in St Germain des Prés monthlly. It's already started. Four of our Parisian friends have already taken part in the last visit and they are looking forward to meeting you. We have a few requests for October but we can welcome a few more people. Numbers are limited though.



Let us know! We'll be delighted to have you.
