Interactive Team Building With Walter Trupp

This is the perfect event for bringing together corporate and social groups in a fun environment to have the ultimate food experience.

Your group will split up into small teams which will each study their allocated recipes and, with Walter’s help, decide on a team name and a strategy for entertaining the other participants. Now the fun begins. Each team takes to the ‘stage’ to present their version of a 10- to 15-minute television cooking show, trying as hard as they can to amuse their audience while cooking their recipes – doing imitations, singing, dancing, telling ridiculous stories, whatever they feel inspired to do.

Teams will award each other points for their entertainment skills before the completed dishes are judged for their taste and presentation. The food will then be served to participants in our dining room, along with a glass of wine or beer, and the winning team will receive a prize from us.

The menu for this entertaining and delicious class includes entrees such as rice paper rolls, Thai BBQ prawns, Vietnamese oysters, and pandan chicken. Main courses include Thai roast pumpkin, spinach, and chickpea curry, made-from-scratch Malaysian beef rendang, a beautiful soy-pot roasted whole chicken, and an amazing braised pork belly with star anise and ginger.

The current themes of Interactive Team Building are as follows:

• Mexican
• Spanish
• Vietnamese
• International curries
• Traditional French
• Moroccan
