Burgundy & Lyon
Bistro tables, market baskets and the cooking capital of France, with tastings arranged through local contacts.
Culinary Adventures
Personalized, insider food journeys through France and beyond, guided by Chef François de Mélogue and his wife Lisa.
Travel With the Kitchen in Mind
François and Lisa design highly personalized, fun insider adventures to the world's most edible places. Instead of the usual tourist stops, they pair up with local insiders to uncover the hidden treasures that a typical tour never reaches.
The result is a trip built around markets, kitchens, cellars and family tables — with plenty of room to cook, taste and ask questions along the way.
Where We Go
Three regions anchor the adventures, each with its own larder, rhythm and specialties.
Provence
The home of pistou: hilltop villages, orchards, olive oil and long lunches under the plane trees.
Pacific Northwest
Closer to home, with coastal produce, farms and chefs shaping a distinctly northern pantry.
What an Adventure Looks Like
Every itinerary is different, but the ingredients stay the same.
- Truffle hunts with working hunters and their dogs.
- Wine tastings guided by growers and sommeliers.
- Local dining in small bistros and home kitchens.
- Walking food tours through old city quarters.
- Market visits and hands-on cooking with regional produce.
- Homemade libations and regional delicacies between stops.
