Kid Chef Summer Camp 2026
Menu: French Bistro
Week 1: June 8th – June 12th, 2026
👦👧 Ages: 8–14
⏰ 9 AM – 3 PM
Pescatarians, Vegetarians, and Vegans Welcome!
Bienvenue! This week, we’re stepping into the cozy, delicious world of French bistros—where warm soups, flaky pastries, and chocolatey desserts come to life. Young chefs will chop, stir, taste, and bake their way through a week of hands-on cooking, learning real culinary skills while having so much fun with new friends.
This week is perfect for kids who love food, love cooking, or just love trying new things. (And yes—everyone gets their own apron!)
Sample Menu for the Week
- 🍲 Soupe à la Potiron – Gasconne Pumpkin Soup
A silky, comforting soup kids LOVE making—and tasting!
- 🥒 Creamy Courgettes with Rosemary
Zucchini cooked the French way: creamy, herby, and surprisingly delicious.
- 🥐 St. André’s Phyllo Purses with Bre, Sundried Tomatoes & Mushroom Ragout
Flaky, crispy, cheesy, and fun to fold—like making your own edible treasure pouch!
- 🍫 Hazelnut Sablé Tart with Chocolate Ganache
Rich chocolate + buttery crust = the dessert kids rave about all year.

Try Everything! They might just like it!
