Join Robert, an award-winning food writer (Travel+Leisure, Slow Food) and Michelin Star-trained Chef for 4-Course Gastronomic Tasting Menu and Cooking Class in Montreal Canada. You will prepare the menu together from scratch. The focus will be on professional techniques that define each course - searing, pan-roast, sauces, presentation, knife skill, plating - as if you were working in a top restaurant! So this will not be a typical cooking class, where you just follow a recipe. Rather, each guest will wholly collaborate with Robert on several courses, learning the professional techniques and concepts behind creating bold flavors and beautiful presentations. Your meal is a unique luxury and culinary experience where you will enjoy a 4-course tasting menu that includes dishes inspired by Montreal's global food cultures. Expect a mix of Asian, Jewish, Caribbean, Portuguese, and Quebecois flavors, all part of a savory story about food, culture and people.

Robert is a great chef and teacher. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of food, and a great deal of love for Montreal’s ethnic diversity and foodways. The fusion creations we created in homage to La Cité’s immigrant populations were delicious and original. We learned not just about ingredients, but also about techniques and equipment. The selection of wines, beers, and ciders served with the meal were wonderful, too. Highly recommended.
