Professor Ravalico organized this high-impact learning experience with the support of French Club sponsor Professor Robert Sapp. The event was generously funded by the Department of French, Francophone, and Italian Studies, and French Club. Le Creuset kindly offered use of their “atelier” space for the event.

Students and faculty enjoyed a delicious feast of  “moules au pistou” (mussels in pesto), “poulet au vinaigre de l’estragon” (chicken in a tarragon vinegar sauce), and “clafouti aux framboises” (raspberry clafouti).

Bon appétit!
