Gastronomic Adventures with Chef Dominique at La Baume Victoire

    LA  BAUME VICTOIRE

  Forget the stressful aspects of “civilized” life and join me this June in the Luberon for my custom 10-day programs that explore the cuisine of Provence. As my guest in a traditional Provencal home, La Baume Victoire, you’ll have mornings to shop for our ingredients and afternoons to explore local villages and restaurants. Each evening, I’ll teach you how to prepare classic Provencal dishes, which we’ll leisurely eat together while sampling local wines. All the while, you will be surrounded by wild flowers and the fragrances of thym (thyme), sarriette (savory), romarin (rosemary) and fennouil (fennel). The hustle of traffic will be replaced with the chirping of birds and the buzz of cicadas as you take in the magnificent mountain views that God created for Matisse, Van Gogh and, now, for you.  

Gastronomy is the foundation of my program. The food we prepare will be delicious, inventive, plentiful, well balanced and adaptable to accommodate everyone’s tastes and any diet or health restrictions. Small group size – 8 maximum per session – guarantees one-on-one attention from the chef. We will cook with olive oil, an integral part of Provencal cooking and the key to our health and longevity. We will properly use herbs, spices and the minimum amount of salt to compliment each dish (and sel de Camargue will always be on the table if needed). All meals will be accompanied by wine produced by local and Rhone Valley wineries.

Flavor of Provence combines my passions for teaching, cooking, sharing food and eating. I created this custom program to provide people with a hands-on experience of the cuisine and lifestyle of one of France's most beautiful regions: Provence. My sincere hope is this gastronomic adventure will become one of your most cherished memories.
