This was a second class with Chef Jonathan and once again the food and experience were fun, entertaining, delicious and educational. There were four in our party and, unfortunately 10 more in the class, too many for the small space. But we all could participate and we learned more from the talented chef. Although it took some prompting to receive the recipes, they have now arrived they will be easy to follow to try our hand at the meal. Recommend giving this class a try and enjoy being in the wonderful food hall.

A very pleasant experience inside the Halles Market, which has an awe-inspiring array of food vendors and is located just steps from the heart of the city. We learned cooking techniques and a lot about the food while we helped the chef prepare our own lunch, and we had the pleasure to have lunch served to us by helpful and courteous staff. Chef John lived in California and his English first-language good. I would recommend doing this early in your stay in Avignon so you gain some comfort in shopping the market and know what to look for.

We absolutely enjoyed our class with Chef Jonathan. He was entertaining, personable and shared techniques. Ours was a class of 8 and any more than that would have been unreasonable. The reason for the 3 star rating is we were promised the recipes, and nearly a month later, we have not received them and have not even received responses to emails. This was a disappointment, as we had hoped to make two of the items while we were here with the fresh ingredients from the market. We leave Avignon tomorrow, sadly, without that opportunity.

This is an exceptional workshop. People of any skill level can enjoy and participate. Chef Jon is a wealth of knowledge and entertaining. Highly recommended. It was actually one of the highlights of our trip.

The cooking class was great, I learnt a lot of new tips to get the most success when cooking the dishes. The chef made it fun.

The chef did a very good job at managing the cooking experience. He was a great multi-tasked and gave us quite a lot of interesting information. There were probably too many people in the group and also the space being limited made things somewhat awkward. Perhaps 8 would be a more manageable number. The price seemed on the high side for the number of people involved and quality of ingredients. (we booked two sessions of 7 per session) . There is nowhere to put in 3 1/2 stars but that is where we would rate it. We were grateful to receive the wonderful recipes and they were all things that we would very likely make at home.

The instruction is very high quality and engaging. Ideal location in the market itself. Delicious food.

We loved attending the cooking class, the whole family tried everything offered including the kids. Getting to work with the group to make an amazing meal was a blast. Can’t wait to try the recipes at home. Made sure to pick up some of chef’s recommendations to take home.

Aside from the difficult parking garage, the workshop presenter (chef) was quite friendly and entertaining. He was familiar with American food culture and did a great job of comparing and contrasting with the culture and food traditions of Provence. The location in the marketplace was also beneficial. The workshop was well organized, the assistant was helpful and friendly. Most of all, the food was scrumptious and we look forward to replicating these recipes at home.

Learning to cook duck, tour of market and tasting of cheeses. Jonathan was very entertaining. We were staying just around the corner from the market.
