Another Fire In The Kitchen!!












Team in a slump? Need ideas to get the creative juices flowing? Is there a project that you're team is working on and everything is in flux? Well, I think that our team building offering, "Fire in the Kitchen", is the perfect opportunity! Develop team building skills, flex brain muscles, and show fellow co-workers how to work smart and TOGETHER under pressure! Get to understand the different personality types of fellow co-workers, and also understand the importance balancing cost, quality, and time in project management. Why not use cooking as a means to build upon those concepts!! A local consulting firm decided to incorporate our team building offering with a half day meeting for 14 staff members. The results...the ability to develop a cohesive product, tackle last minute decisions, and execute under the gun (I did give them an extra minute or too because I saw them sweating under pressure LOL). And the winning Fried Chicken Taco exceeded judges expectations, because they "Put an Onion Ring on it"..no pun intended Beyonce! But nonetheless, any team who is desirous for a team building activity with an edge, check us out! We'll even transform your office space into a fully functioning kitchen for the occassion!

Ultimate Kitchen Challenge!!!












Dejuan Luke and Pastor Harris from New Life Church decided that it was time to get the staff into competition mode...the Ultimate Kitchen Challenge was the way to go! There were 4 teams, consisting of 4-5 members. Each team was challenged to create a tapas style dish with the ingredients available to them. Each team had a mystery vegetable. Even though one team didn't realize their vegetable was indeed a vegetable, it was HILARIOUS to see how each team could collaborate to design a dish in less than 30 minutes! The winner, needless to say, had a creative team name, a creative dish, and a creative way of telling the judges that 'trust me, it's gonna be good' :)
We served the enthusiastic bunch with a hearty lunch that they surely enjoyed:
Spinach au Gratin
Mashed Sweet Potato Bliss
Panko Crusted Chicken Tenderloins
Dessert - Organic Berry Tarts with Vanilla Creme and Graham Cracker Crust
