Just last night as we were preparing baby artichokes, we discussed what a difference you have made in the
ways we work in the kitchen together. Among many reasons, we're more adventurous and happy working side
by side

Integrating all of these ambitious recipes into elaborate dinners, in the beautiful courtyard garden was
the pinnacle of graciousness of the French countryside. I cannot praise Anne’s skill sufficiently in
providing a comprehensive exposure to this area and all of its attributes, her sensitivity as hostess of
a small group and providing a new and wider appreciation of the French lifestyle in the country.

During my visit to the Languedoc last summer I was lucky to have Anne as my hostess and guide. Not only did she share
her deep understanding of local wine and food, she showed me that I too, could recreate the flavors of the area on my
own. We visited local markets and ate at various locales and then we cooked meals using our purchases. Anne has a
special touch that makes you feel welcome. I can't wait to go back!

Learn French Cooking at Lessons in France
Hilary Howard The
New York Times, May 25 2008
Languedoc, a region in southwest France, has long played second fiddle to its more glamorous neighbor, Provence. But sometimes overlooked areas keep delicious secrets.
Anne de Ravel, a cookbook author and food columnist, hopes to reveal some of those culinary secrets to outsiders with her new school, Saveur Languedoc (www.saveurlanguedoc.com). Starting in September, the school will offer five-day, hands-on ateliers de cuisine (cooking classes) in a private home in Nissan-lez-Enserune, outside of Beziers. Each atelier will teach recipes for regional dishes like bourride (a fish stew) and sweet almond pie. Participants will also sample locally produced or grown seasonal foods (charcuterie, wild mushrooms, olive oils) and visit wineries in St.-Chinian and Faugeres.
