Food that brings people together

VictorsFood creates hands-on cooking events that bring teams together, build genuine connection and leave people with more than a good meal to remember.

From corporate team-building events and client entertainment to cooking parties, classes and bespoke food experiences, we make it easy for people to step out of their usual roles, work together and have fun. Our events are inclusive, professionally facilitated and designed around your people, purpose and venue.

Alongside our events, we offer food consulting, demonstrations and presentations—drawing on real culinary, hospitality and business experience to help clients create better food experiences and stronger operations.

Pioneering food-led team building since 2002
Victor and Wanitha pioneered hands-on cooking as a corporate team-building experience when they co-founded Sydney’s Cheeky Food Group in 2002. Victor established VictorsFood in 2007, continuing a simple belief: when people cook, collaborate and share a meal together, they connect in ways that are both natural and memorable.
