DESCRIPTION
Your team-building efforts will be super effective if you find the right team building activity. The Amazing Race and Cook-Off Challenge will help increase teamwork, encourages efficiency, improves productivity and more. If you want your team members to work well together, you’ll need to show leadership, encourage collaboration, work toward common goals, celebrate diversity and invest in events for building effective teams. Read on to learn how you can build effective teams in our team cooking.
Experience the highlight of Victoria Street with Asian foods in this fun and unique team-building activity. This team cooking challenge is designed as a hybrid it uses the same theme with the popular Amazing race TV. This will suit a variety of event styles where you want your team to have some great fun plus some challenges along the way.
Teams will then have to work together or nominate a leader to perform an activity or task designed to test their teamwork, communication and decision making in order to receive the clue to their next location. With our version, teams of 2-3-4 or 5 people will make their way to Victoria street grocer, meat, kitchen or fish stores encountering Decision (Detour) and Obstacle (Roadblock) challenges. They will take photos of the ingredients. They race to finish as the number one team.
They will then complete the 2nd challenge with cooking. Our chef and each team will judge teams to award the most authentic, tasty, well present dish. Victoria Street Richmond is famous for Vietnamese foods so naturally, we do Vietnamese food however we can work on Thai, Indian, Korean, Chinese or Japanese menus.
