It was important for the project us to be backed up by cooking professionals. So we decided to have l'association "Les petits plats dans les grands" (French version of "Host with The Most") onboard with us.
Last week we visited Thierry Lhuilery, head of the association and happy owner of the charming "Le Pommier" ("The Apple Tree"), one of Bayeux's most exquisite attractions !
Thierry was very helpful in suggesting ideas for our language course and let us take picture in his restaurant !
Read more about their involvement in the project after the break.
What's cooking in the back kitchen ?
Ecuisine is an E-learning course about cooking and learning languages. It is currently under developement.
This is the place to learn more about this project and all the people involved in it.

(Very) Dynamic vocabulary building with Quizlet
Since a lot of the linguistic aspect of the course will be around memorizing vocabulary, I thought we need some
In Ecuisine, the main aspect of the language course will be around learning vocabulary. There are some really good tools on the Internet to automatizes vocabulary learning (this is something machines are really good at !).
Quizlet is my favourite of these tools. It's an easy to use tool based on the concept of flash cards. You just enter a list of words and their translation or definition and it automatically generates flash cards. See for yourself :
