And thanks to your blog, I can check in with you to see how you're doing every now & then!
Best regards to you and your assistant (I didn't get her name but she was as sweet as you!).
Happy cooking!"

More praise for the four-day course

"I want to thank you SO much for the lovely cookery course. It was so enjoyable while at the same time being highly informative. I shall never be able to return to my slovenly ways….from now on it is nothing but the very best of ingredients AND replacing ‘the knife’ with a proper assortment of sharp ones! You have really whetted my appetite and I will be keeping an eye on your website with the view to returning to your kitchen in the near future."
Síghle Bhreathnach-Lynch, Dublin

Provencal flavours at home

"Just wanted to thank you again for a wonderful week of cooking. It was truly the highlight of my visit on the Cote d'Azur!! I wanted you to know that I have made several of the recipes here in Australia; the Beet Orange salad at least 4 times and it has been such a hit, the apple tart twice - very VERY impressive and so yummy, the lentil soup at least twice with ordinary Aussie sausages - still nice and the couscous salad at least twice. Will try lots more recipes when I get back to the USA."
Eleanor Therese Coyne, Australia

Taste souvenirs

"Just want to say thank you again for the wonderful day we spent with you and your sharing your knowledge with us. Our dinner that evening was wonderful and we have enjoyed the wines we purchased when we were with you and most of all we are still enjoying that fabulous olive oil!! Please give our compliments and thanks to the owners of the shops and let them know how much we are enjoying our purchases."
Forrest and Adella Greek, USA

A day to remember

"I must tell you that the day Jeanie and I spent with you was my favorite of our trip to the south of France. From the minute we met at the market to our goodbye at the end of our wonderful class I enjoyed every minute. Your menu choice was perfect and your instruction excellent. I wrote a review of our trip to Fodor's talk forum and highly recommended your classes. I do hope that I will have the good fortune to visit Nice and take another class with you. Thank you very much."
Debbie MacLean, Boston

Praise for the four-day course

"I have thought about your request for feedback, but I really don't see what
could be improved. The organization of the course was incredible and the
food seemed, judging from the restaurants, truly representative of the
region. You are a natural, as they say, as a teacher."
Gerald Davis, Colorado, USA

"A few days post class(es), and still enjoying that warm feeling of a successful and thoroughly enjoyable experience. Your program was a good mix of some hands-on cooking and a clear sense of Mediterranean cooking. That was what I was looking for, so it was time and money well spent. I've followed on by trying a couple of the recipes - and intend to do more. The recipes are well balanced, clear, 'well' kitchen tested and all eminently 'do-able!"
Robert Hausner, Villefranche-sur-Mer, France

"The course was great and I really enjoyed it. It suggests lots of different ways to use ingredients and the little things that transform dishes. The format was excellent and allowed for all levels of experience to benefit."
Donal O'Boyle, Cork, Ireland

"Thanks for an enjoyable course! Since I got back I have gone out and bought new pans, herbs and a fridge full of food to practice with - including rock salt!!"
Lorraine Parkinson, England

In and out of the kitchen

"I had a great time on Rosa's cooking course! From the introduction over coffee in the mediaeval flower market, sampling wines with an expert and choosing the perfect chicken at the local boucherie, all this before we started to cook! I came away learning a complete lunch menu with a decidedly Niçois flavour. Rosa made the day great fun and also taught me to cook some wonderful dishes. I will definitely go back." Mark Howorth, London, England

An appetite for knowledge

"Nothing brings people together like food and cooking, and nobody is a better guide to French cooking in Nice than Rosa. Our day started with a tour of the open-air farmers' market and then the bakery, butcher shop, cheese shop and wine store, before heading to the kitchen to make lunch. Rosa guided us to the freshest ingredients and highest quality local produce while fielding our constant questions about French food and culture. Her comfortable style and great knowledge make it an experience that my wife and I still talk about." Alan Wozniak, Los Angeles, California

Confidence building

"My favorite part of the class was when the noon canon went off and we opened the rosé! I had been worried that a cooking class might feel intimidating, but Rosa made us feel that everyone had something important to contribute. I came away feeling more confident of my cooking and excited about reproducing the dishes for my friends at home." Gary Schultz, Texas

A France highlight

"When we visited Provence last fall, we were fortunate to have found Rosa Jackson's cooking class, via the internet. Our time with Rosa was one of the highlights of our two weeks in France. The trip to the market, and her knowledge of the fresh food and wine we used to prepare our menu made this an incredible experience that will not be forgotten. We only wish we lived closer, so that we could do it again. This experience was definitely worth the investment!" Lynn Langeliers, Montana, USA

Mediterranean Delights!
