I really have to thank you for being a spark that has changed the direction of my life… it has now been two years since I took your class in Paris, and since, I have graduated from culinary school, left my corporate job and am now working as a chef in the Napa Valley, truly living my dream. message from Cara who took classes in 2009 Dear Paule, I have truly taken your lessons to heart. I have incorporated the terrine and the tart into my "repertoire." Your family recipe for the tart shell and almond cream have truly revolutionized my approach to dessert. You have inspired me. Joe (Minnesota) Our afternoon with you in Paris remains one of the best experiences we've had in any city. Thank you! Greg (Florida) I have taken many cooking classes and I have come to realize that your class was the most informative and enjoyable.

Joan B., NYC Dear Paule, We successfully served the meal which we learned in your class for guests this past weekend and it was quite a hit! Many many thanks for a wonderful experience and some very tasty recipes. My husband and I think that Monsieur Sarkozy should appoint you as his culinary ambassador to France, since you were such a convincing advocate for all things français.

David Lebovitz, October 2009 and, from a member of his group here on October 20th "thanks for such a wonderful day yesterday. I really loved the whole experience, especially hearing your thoughtful explanations of French tradition and culture. I would love to bring a couple of my best friends back to Paris to share an afternoon chez Paule with them"
John and Josie S, third class, October 2009
Paule is a wonderful teacher - energetic and knowledgeable. Meeting her made me want to pursue a career in food. The time I spent cooking in her home was one of the high points of my stay in Paris.
“Obrigada” ... we just loved your cooking class, it was delicious. You are a great chef! I love your new place and the stove is just beautiful! You really have a touch when it comes to decorating … so thanks for the inspiration. Really liked the video of the salon culinaire…as well as the video with Josee. Brought back lots of memories of my unforgettable day spent exploring the Marais with you.
For people traveling who love food and love to cook, Promenades Gourmandes offers a great product. Paule is very generous with her information and knowledge, and it is definitely Parisian! A personal, yet “historical” perspective of the development of cooking in Paris. Corinne C., owner of The Culinary Loft in NYC, November 2008
Feeling so inspired from my trip and lessons with you, I am looking to enroll in a formal culinary arts program in January! I always thought it would be a fun degree to earn, but have never before felt quite as driven as I feel now. I have been practicing quite a bit, using and modifying the recipes I learned with you. You are an inspiration! Gabriella R., October 2008
"There were so many subtle things in your style that will help me improve my cooking. This was exactly what I was looking for when I wanted to learn how the French cook."
"You are a lovely host and teacher and it was a pleasure making your acquaintance. The insider’s view to the Parisian marché, the menu, and your extensive knowledge of French culture and cooking made up for a fascinating day." "How exciting to run into Dorie Greenspan after talking about her in the class. We loved spending the day with you. It was everything we had hoped for and more." |
