★★★★★Google review
Put your team in matching aprons and let the friendly competition begin. Hands-on cooking challenges that build communication, trust and a few great inside jokes.
Cooking is the great equaliser: titles disappear the moment the timer starts. Your team has to plan, delegate and communicate, then enjoy the meal they made together.
Fast-paced challenges keep everyone on their feet and fully involved from start to finish.
Communication, delegation and decision-making, practised in a fun, low-stakes setting.
Teams sit down to eat what they cooked, the moment that turns colleagues into a team.
A high-octane blend of strategy, speed and culinary skill. Teams race the clock through edible 'Roadblocks' and 'Detours' before a final cooking showdown. The ultimate test of communication and grace under pressure.
A test of resourcefulness: teams turn a surprise assortment of ingredients into a cohesive dish, emphasising quick decision-making and creative problem-solving. Halal and vegetarian options available.
A designated leader identifies secret ingredients by taste alone to 'unlock' supplies. A test of trust, palate and clear communication, perfect for teams rebuilding rapport.
Growth happens outside the comfort zone. Teams overcome mental blocks handling and cooking live seafood, a powerful metaphor for tackling business challenges that builds resilience and trust.
A powerful exercise in non-verbal communication. With speaking removed, teams find creative ways to coordinate, highlighting clarity and attention, with a penalty for breaking silence.
A secret saboteur works to derail your team as you execute a gourmet menu. Teams must communicate and double-check each other's work to deliver a restaurant-quality dish through the chaos.
A complex meal against a ticking clock where success demands absolute clarity and trust. Expect urgency, the fun kind of shouting, and the satisfaction of delivering a perfect service.
Learn exceptional plating from our resident chef, then create culinary works of art. Teams are awarded one, two or three stars on presentation, ideal for precision-loving teams.
A true test of creativity: teams fit a few random, unique ingredients into a three-course meal, innovating with the odd and unexpected. Great for cross-functional, knowledge-driven teams.
