Using food as the medium for connecting people through hands-on cooking events. We do this by getting people cooking together in a way that maximises the dynamic connection that happens when a group of people cook and share food together. You can use this for team building, client entertaining, organisational development, incentives, conference ice breakers, or just for fun.

Your team get to know each other in a way they have never known before, then head into one of our cooking events for a fully experiential exploration of what you’ve learned. Structured debriefings cement the learnings.

Yes, it’s easy for us to build in other activities such as a “Great Race”, wine tasting, etc.

Team building cooking events can be done at your office, hotel, conference centre or home. We can also recommend venues to suit your event. Most venues incur modest extra charges for equipment hire and site inspection.

Yes. We are totally portable, so we can create a corporate team building event for you anywhere in Australia, or how about South America? We are totally portable and can run any size event from 8 to 2,000. Whether you’ve got your own venue, or need to hire one of ours, we are totally portable. We are based in Sydney and travel to you in Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Canberra, Hobart, Newcastle, Wollongong, Perth, Adelaide, or Darwin! We have a venue in Rio de Janeiro!

Yes. You are the chefs for the day. Our Presenters guide you in the right direction.

If you like, we can cook part of the meal.

We have worked with people who can’t even boil an egg, so don’t fret. Our Presenters are trained chefs and patient teachers; they will have you chopping, dicing and sizzling in no time all with good humour and your experience level in mind.

Menus are designed for your event, featuring fresh seasonal produce.

We will work with you to make sure allergies and food requirements (e.g. no nuts, lactose intolerant, celiac, vegetarian, no pork, etc) are catered for.

Our events are BYO drinks and alcohol, or as agreed with the venue. Where BYO is allowed, we can give you a good source for wines, etc. to be delivered to the venue or you can organise yourself. We will make sure they are chilled and served within responsible service of alcohol guidelines.

As each team building event is different, we select upbeat music to keep the team movin’ and groovin’. Sometimes teams even break out into their own dance routines (which can sometimes be a bit scary) but it’s all in good fun! We can also theme the music to the event.

Wear comfortable clothes, closed-toe shoes and just bring lots of good energy. We don’t supply aprons for private events, so if you want you can hire or purchase VictorsFood aprons or bring your own on the day.

Yes. VictorsFood aprons make great party favours for only $20 (plus GST) each. These are high-quality durable aprons, that make great take home gifts for the team to remember this special day and to keep them cooking for a long time to come. We can also suggest and supply everything from party poppers to chef knives, kitchen accessories and cookware.
