At 3 pm, Thierry will present the menu, which may be pre-planned according to your desires and dietary needs. Each delectable dish and its myriad ingredients will be explained and drawn on a board, and the recipes will be distributed to the group, which is divided into working teams.

From approximately 3:30 to 6 pm, work creatively with Thierry and your teammates to prepare your dinner. Learn new culinary techniques and polish your skills while anticipating the feast to come and partaking of aperitivos served by Café des Artistes’ maitre d’hôtel.

At about 6 pm, unwind with an oenophile event that includes champagne, a white wine and two red wines, along with a discussion of each wine and methods for appreciating a wine-tasting session.

Then at 7 pm, the maitre d’hôtel and two trained waiters from the restaurant will present your meal using the exquisite dinner service and settings of Café des Artistes. And while you’re lingering comfortably over coffee, the restaurant staff will take care of all the details and leave your kitchen sparkling!

To add brilliance to an already outstanding evening, arrange separately with Café des Artistes for mariachis, a violinist, a romantic trio, a classical quartet or even a rock band! Or just settle back and savor your masterpiece meal and the unforgettable memories you have created today!
