Posted: Nov 23, 2016
A great way to build team spirit among colleagues and work peers is by organizing team building activities such as cooking events. A cooking event is a special and unique way to forge friendships and stimulate teamwork. A team building cooking class should be such that it teaches leadership, personal development, creativity and teamwork in a fun way. The most important factor is that the experience should be both rewarding and fun for all team members.
If you have a team that is positive, open-minded and eager to connect with each other over a love for food, history and culture, you should reward them with completely unique and customized team building activities in Melbourne.
Cooking experiences for your team introduce them to authentic cuisines such as Asian and many more. Business that provide cooking activities for team building in Melbourne work along with event planners to curate the best and most authentic experiences for your team. They not only provide great value for money but also leave you and your team with amazing memories of an amazing venue.
Benefits of cooking experiences for teams
These experiences help a team get deeply immersed in the culture and food of Thailand, Singapore, Japan, Vietnam etc. They teach the team to prepare simplified 25 ingredients’ recipes that not only taste well but also make for great stories. The team is also introduced to stories of cooking cultures, traditions and family kitchens. This will ensure that they return home with renewed vitality, creativity, energy and an appreciation for Asian cuisine. These experiences take place in purpose-built studios especially organized for the cooking activities. They accommodate a team size of about 8-16 people.
The team is most likely to appreciate these cooking experiences as they provide the group with hands-on experience along with loads of entertainment so that they feel like they are part of a social cooking party. The classes are perfect for a group of people cooking together and igniting their passions for food. They also act as perfect gifts for teams.
The training kitchens for team building come equipped with latest technologies such as induction cooking, which are both safe and efficient for the entire group. Cooking classes for teams can be personalized according to individual requirements. They ensure that each and every member of the team gets involved and has fun. Cooking events turn the group members into celebrity chefs, with each member involved in the preparation of the meals irrespective of their experience, cooking knowledge or position. The experience ensures that people who walk in as colleagues walk out as a team, all after tons of work, collaboration and fun.
These events do not assign anyone as the leader to prevent other members from getting disengaged. This also encourages sharing, interaction, prioritizing and time management. The reward is an amazing experience, along with delectable food. Unlike regular cooking classes, these experiences for teams have elements of both restaurant kitchens and culinary classes. Combined with event and team building skills, what gets crafted in the end is a fun, highly focused team building event.
What is included in the experience?
The cooking experience introduces team members to the fundamentals of flavors and fresh ingredients. They learn the preparation of a variety of healthy, authentic and quick Asian recipes. They are also made to become well-versed in expert cooking tricks, techniques and tips.
