My wife and I are going to be staying in Rouen Normandy for a week in July and it happens to fall on her birthday. I would like to surprise her with a cooking class for us. Does anyone know of any in the Normandy area? We do have a car so transportation will be no issue. Thank you.

You are in luck! Susan Hermann Loomis has an excellent cooking school in Louviers, which is in Normandy. Its about an hour outside of Paris, so folks who are staying in Paris can also make a day trip out to take a class. Here's the website: http://onruetatin.com Her website states that it is one of the top 7 cooking schools in France. Susan is from Washington, but has lived in France for at least 20-25 years. She is the author of numerous cookbooks and books about life in France. I've taken two cooking classes from Susan when she is visiting in the Pacific NW and have thoroughly enjoyed them. These classes are definitely not inexpensive, but I think they would make a lovely present for your wife. She also offers "Sunday Lunch" several times a year and that sounds like a nice way to celebrate also. Susan also offers classes occasionally in Paris, with a market morning, followed by a cooking afternoon.
