About Us
Notre mission OUR MISSION
" Enabling everyone to reconnect with homemade cooking has been my ambition since the launch of my company in 2004. At Chefsquare, we believe in the necessity of sharing culinary know-how more widely, for individuals and businesses alike, through our in-person and virtual cooking classes, restaurant immersions, and professional training programs. In our workshops in Paris and Lyon, no fewer than 60 chefs, experts from all backgrounds, share with you an accessible, joyful, and committed cuisine. To go even further, we have formalized our commitments by acquiring the status of a Mission-Driven Company in 2022."
