Taste Week brings back cherished childhood memories of healthier, more flavorful school cafeteria meals served over five special days. This iconic event has returned across France—not just for kids! From educational workshops to family adventures, it's a nationwide tribute to our rich culinary heritage. Here's your guide to Semaine du Goût so you won't miss a single highlight.
Taste Week emphasizes learning through food. It introduces kindergarten, primary, secondary school, and university students to France's gastronomic treasures while promoting balanced eating habits. Farmers, chefs, and bakers visit schools daily to share their expertise, time-tested recipes, and practical tips firsthand.
Exciting activities unfold across France, turning the week into a delightful outing. On October 14, join the "Very Very Gourmet Treasure Hunt" in Paris—a thrilling urban scavenger hunt to uncover the secret recipe from Michelin-starred Chef Julien Dumas.
Over 500 restaurants transform into "Les Tables du Goût," featuring innovative, themed menus crafted for Semaine du Goût. This year, squash reigns supreme as the star ingredient, with top chefs highlighting this seasonal vegetable in fresh, creative ways.
