I cannot reccomend Kerrouet Culinary School more. Under Chef Poul even the most experienced of our small group of 6 learned the cooking skills and tricks of a Michelan standard. As for those less experienced, myself included, I've emerged from the school a more confident and skilled chef, fully capable of making authentic French cuisine.
More than this, enjoying all the fantastic food we made during our time in Kerrouet would not be nearly as easy without the carefree and effortless hosting of Poul and Niall, who taught us the art of hosting by example. We enjoyed our meals, aperitifs, digestifs, snacks, and afternoon teas/coffees all the more because of the company and the friendliness of our knowledgable hosts in their stunny and cosy home.
Finally, a word on the location of Kerrouet. While the village is somewhat remote, it provides an excellent base for those keen to explore the surrounding medieval towns of Brittany, and we enjoyed walking the beautiful countryside on our free afternoons. The tranquility and peacefulness of Kerroeut provided the perfect place to learn the local cuisine, with all the delicious locally-sourced ingredients used to make the dishes.
For those looking for a relaxed and yet genuine French cooking course, look no further than Kerrouet! The hospitality of Poul and Niall is matched only by the quality of the food you will produce during your time here.

Our sincere thanks to Poul and Niall for an incredible week of fabulous food and great cooking experiences in a wonderful homely atmosphere. As a family of keen cooks and diners not only did we learn how to put together some amazing menus, balance flavours, new cooking techniques and efficient use of many varied ingredients but most importantly had lots of fun in a relaxed environment. Paul is a fountain of knowledge and has an amazing and practical approach to cooking in which food and flavours are celebrated and enjoyed with the greatest of ease. We would highly recommend and endorse the French Dining School to anyone who shares a passion for cooking and fine food.
