Les Ateliers Fromagers

It’s been almost 5 years since Sylvain Puccini and Philippe Kotula began offering cheese making workshops in Montreal and Quebec City. They rent commercial kitchens for their classes and it has been a very successful endeavor for them. They are both from the South of France.

Sylvain and Philippe before class

Philippe, who teaches the workshops, is also a consultant for cheese businesses, having made cheese professionally for over 30 years.

Philippe

Sylvain is a cheese lover with over 18 years of experience in web development & marketing. Over the last 5 years, he has been developing expertise in the techniques of home cheese making.

There are 150 miles between Montreal and Quebec City and most of the classes are held in Montreal at the Centrale Culinaire.
