Description

This is an unique opportunity for adults to participate in a half day experience, preparing a two/three course regional lunch menu to be enjoyed in the early afternoon. It is a ideal course for adults who want to learn and enjoy the more exclusive products that the regional has to offer.

These dishes will always have a local flavour, using the regional ingredients of the highest quality, most of which will have been purchased fresh that morning within a 5km radius of CookDordogne.
